[@FachyMarin]

The shots, the calm vibe, your sense of humour. Dude, you've really came a long way. I'm enjoying your channel more than ever.

[@NegativeFeedback]

Thanks!

[@PoulvandenElshout]

I agree, love the way you create your scenes, adding the sounds of the motorway when you flip through the book, excellent!

[@samamar4570]

Couldn't agree more

[@kebab_boi]

George’s head blends in with the background lol. He’s perfectly aligned with the fence and the trees.

[@MalbenHead]

this has to be intentional

[@kebab_boi]

Edo Asoulin lmao I thinking the same

[@huyvu9306]

according to peak design, the travel tripod fully extended is 152.4 cm and the average human head is 24cm which makes ser gergo roughly 14 pieces of 4x5 film laid end to end

[@BahramDideban]

Finally, an appropriate universal measure between feet and centimetres.

[@flojeune]

yes and the meter was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along a great circle....

[@NegativeFeedback]

Sorry for the few people that got hit with the double upload, there were some photos missing from the video and I didn't notice until it was too late.

[@briansavage932]

Peak Design has been using Peter McKinnon to push their travel tripod on Facebook for a while now, but I think they should use you instead. *George from Negative Feedback says about this product: "Very quick. Very tripod" * They'd sell literally some of them.

[@Thecalebpoe]

Although I agree I don't even think George could sell me a $600 tripod. Probably a reason he never mentioned price lol

[@Melllchi]

George I can't wait to see where you take this! I'm honestly really excited for what you have in store *notification bell pressed*

[@NegativeFeedback]

Thanks!

[@barneyarthur4615]

love this 'film noir' style of production in your recent uploads, super refreshing and pleasing - keep em coming

[@lennartbreede]

You should watch The Lighthouse if you haven’t already. After that, track down every interview with Jarin Blaschke, the cinematographer on that project. Their process of picking film stock, aspect ratio, lenses etc is fascinating!

[@emmanuelalvarez3926]

Is there any interview you would recommend watching?

[@lennartbreede]

Emmanuel Alvarez there’s a written one on Kodak dot com. “KODAK B&W FILM DELIVERS A UNIQUE VISUAL SIGNATURE TO ROBERT EGGERS’ ACCLAIMED FANTASY HORROR 'THE LIGHTHOUSE'” but there are many more written ones online and on KZbin

this new kind of video is so refreshing and personal, i love it

[@danielemilazzo432]

Nice to see someone who appreciates a book and turns the pages with care. I noticed.

[@Isabella-je9yu]

Sátátangó is probably one of the best “must watch” recommendations for any photographer and DOP. Thank you for sharing!

[@joevelezart]

Been following your channel for a couple of years. This is a top 3 video for sure. Love the style and don't miss the music at all!

[@dunerino892]

Thx, the A1 book really seems worth checking out!

[@fjalls]

Thank you for making your videos in black and white. Ive fallen in love with black and white recently. For me black and white is the book and color is the movie.

[@Kumba830]

I loved the style of this video, it's so soothing and exactly what I needed after a hectic day. Keep it up b!

[@psychoanima]

You should watch other Bela Tarr's movies as well, they are all masterpieces with long shots. My personal favorite is Werckmeister harmonies

[@Mickey-bo6cv]

You had me at Bela Tarr’s Satantango, which is amazing. Respect!

[@Hugobergine]

I love this new format, really cool to see a youtuber being creative about how he films :)

That Røde kit is much fun. It's very quick and very wireless.

intrigued to see whats to come!

[@runcmd1419]

Have you seen the Turin Horse? Similar kind of film but with modern steadycam long takes. The main characters wordlessly boil and eat potatoes three times throughout the film. Thanks for sharing A1, looks like a wonderful book, and I'll check out more of his work.

[@vectorhunter4659]

[@red_fry]

Love the new videos !

[@CottonTeeth]

Love the new look and whatever camera setup you have going on to film it. Is it a fujifilm GFX camera by chance? This video at least to me, has a medium format look and feel to it. Love your work, keep it up! very inspiring! Usually not a fan of back & white, specially digital video-wise but this has made me reconsider. I honestly love the look of it.

[@The_Mister]

Best sense of humor 🏆

[@WesleyVerhoevePhotography]

I feel you are totally revitalized making these videos new style!

[@guillaumebouqueau]

If you like the work of Bela Tarr, you need to experience the black and white films of Lav Diaz. He makes some 10h+ movies but Storm children part 1 is a good introduction to his style and is quite short (for him).

[@petroskatradis2409]

Homeboy has been reading Reddit. Glad he’s got a sense of humor about himself. This was super entertaining.

[@benjaminenders8762]

I wanna see you as a DOP on a King Krule music video

[@benjaminenders8762]

@@francescasabini there is a video, where George is out and shooting an old Tree. In this video he films his smartphone while selecting music. Clearly visible on the smartphone are the "Edgar the beat maker" Ep's I thought this was notable.

[@raychung8283]

[@niceman249]

Does anyone have any idea what kind of camera/lens setup Paul graham was using for those photos in the book? I love that look but I’m curious which type of lens gives you that.

[@JeremyOClair]

What is model number of the Peak Design tripod? Thanks. Oh, and thumbs up for the quirky humor. :D (Nevermind - I see the travel tripod on the website.)

[@batchmotors]

youre one of my photography favourites, george

[@cclimperatrice8770]

I advise you to watch the french movie La Belle noiseuse by Jacques Rivettes if you loved Satantango. It is way shorter but I think there is into this movie what you loved in the Bela Tarr's one. Great video btw!

[@jamesbrockett786]

GEORGIE CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHY THE PIZZA PART WAS IN COLOR?!? I AM CONFUSED ON WHAT IS CANONICALLY CORRECT

[@jamesbrockett786]

NegativeFeedback okay i forgive you

[@蔡承諺-r9u]

There's a film called "Empire", which was filmed by Andy Warhol, it was 8 hour long, the whole movie was nothing but the Empire building. And also there's a 24 hour film called "The Clock", which was made by Christian Marclay, and it can actually used like a clock. (Sorry for my poor English, but I really want to share about some really long film)

[@b17ch5l4p]

What kinda spacy looking oven is that? Dope video btw!

[@goldfieldsway]

It only clocks in at 3.5 hours but I'd highly recommend Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles. The title is a bit of a mouthful, but it really is an exceptional film!

[@albano.garcia]

Niall McDiarmid is making a beautiful contemporary portrait of your country IMHO.

How do know what setting to have the iso dial at on the mamiya rz67?

[@emeraldsquare]

I could not decide whether i heard it well or not when you mentioned Sátántangó by Tarr Béla :D

[@dian_photo]

Tar Béla (Béla Tar) is a national genius. He is a so under rated film maker, because of his multiple 4+ hours works. He is also super abstract, and non linear. It's an interesting experience just to watch he's film, and understand it too. Also, I don't know ANYTHING about the translation, and it's quality. I will check it, and rate it for you guys.

Hey George, Is this Mic what you have been using to record the ambient sounds in your most recent videos? Or just for the voice track? The background sounds in 'Shooting video as if it was photography' was really cool.

[@Lastman737]

I'd love to have a long video with no talking and all shots like the clouds or the crows. I'm enamoured with this style. You've captured something truly beautiful. Not to be verbose but it's like having a chance to look at something with that type of intensity that makes it more compelling. Glancing at things keep the excitement up but I don't want to be excited I want to feel, I don't know, belonging.

[@visualtherapist4290]

Love your stuff, learnt a lot of watching you. Quick question, so I just bought the minolta-x700, do you think it provides sharp portraits, enough for me to charge my clients with? I do portrait photography, but want to try doing it with film, and not in the position to afford a medium format :(

[@retrospective77]

Depends on the lenses you use to shoot the portraits with to be honest, not the camera. There are a few really sharp lenses in the Minolta range, while some are not so good. I suggest you have a look for reviews by Ken Rockwell, who has spent a lot of time over the years reviewing pretty much every piece of Minolta kit. I'd also say this. I've had two identical 50mm lenses for my Minolta 35mm. One was sharp, the other not so much. It depends on how lucky you are when buying old lenses. They might look OK, but there could be some haze or warping of the glass over time that would cause your photos to look a bit, meh. If you're serious about shooting portraits on film, I'd suggest looking in to maybe getting a Contax body on 35mm so that you can utilise some of the fantastic Zeiss lenses available for those bodies, or going medium format. Both can be quite pricey though.

[@visualtherapist4290]

@@retrospective77 Yeah, I already splashed a lot of money on my digital so dont have the budget yet. I guess I will have to stick with what I have - and maybe luck out on some zeiss 50mm.
