How to Light & Film Music Videos | Job Shadow

[@TannerTownsend]

Probably my favorite video we’ve done yet!! Beautiful job Park! :)

[@xtr33me]

Really loved your rendition of this song

[@nickhanlin8614]

You couldn’t have brought a dress shirt?

[@RainBow-op5go]

Yes .. He's awesome. We r blessed; we got him. Tanner!!

[@Joshuacowley]

Your song is so good Tanner. Keep it up :)

[@EyeCandyVigilante]

@@xtr33me I loved this song too!

[@brucesearl4407]

Great video Parker. The single best tip in this video is this. "I wasn't very good back then" Now you are rocking it and I love how you are not afraid to show your earlier work and point out things you did wrong. Not just because everyone can learn from that, but because everyone can get the idea that it's OK to not be amazing when we start out. That's part of the process and instead of getting stuck in, I'm not good enough, I don't have the right gear, I don't have the right lights, I don't have... we just need to keep pressing forward, creating and learning. After a few years we'll hopefully be like... Parker Walbeck! ;-)

[@kemalpurplemusic]

watching the evolution in ones craft is one of my favorites. complete night & day difference between both videos. reminds me when id write a song, i felt it was great for a week but then it would suck a month later, then repeat the process over and over, it never ends as were always learning.

[@ericjamesphotography]

I appreciate your honesty about your early mistakes and how you learned from them to become a better shooter. It shows great growth. Especially important as a good teacher it shows your division from ego to illustrate your transition well.

[@jamesdavis3141]

I love when you throw in clips from the beginning of your filmmaking career!!

[@LindaKhasiGospelVideos]

Never get tired to watch your videos....you are amazing videographer....

[@b.rajjainentertainment6316]

Really loved the way you tied to dig out every possible way to make the video look better, that's what film-making is all about.

[@Holyeddybear]

oh my goodness!! I've been watching videos how to light a scene / interview.. (im no pro.. just going to do an internal video regarding client expirience that will be presented during the quarterly organization meeting).. oh boy.. out of the 20+ videos I've watched.. you are the BEST in terms of lighting, framing, and teaching!! subscribed!!

[@starboy2190]

Agree:)

[@LeandroMenzen]

Congratulations Parker! You are one of the only ones who maintains humility in the audiovisual field. Besides providing excellent work. The colors are amazing, well graded and your videos look beautiful.

[@seankitain7076]

Love the magic that unfolds in your creative process.

[@SLSMusic]

So helpful information, thank you so much. Hope one day we could have place and a crew to do such work.

[@owlmuso]

I really appreciate the generosity of these videos. Thanks Parker

[@Houstnwehavuhoh]

Dude what in the hell, this was fantastic. The shots looked amazing. LOVED how you broke this video down, all the pre and post lighting, flashbacks to previous videos done at said location. Video was perfectly paced and showed explanations in a practical way. Seriously, SO helpful. So glad I found the channel! Definitely going to check out your course as well

[@WallStreetImage]

This is sick!! I always love when videographers show their progression!

[@huryu1948]

Musician here trying to figure all this out for self-producing videos. I had no idea so much work is involved. Much more respect to people who work in visual now.

[@BrianWhitmerMusic]

Very helpful to see you critique your own previous work and also to listen in as you think out loud while solving problems on the set. Thanks for making and posting this.

[@myisl5638]

thank u man, u r great person, u halping that person, who dosent have money, they want to leran cinematography, they dont have good coach.. thank u man..

[@zebrazone]

Amazing !! That is EXACTLY what I needed for a previous shoot. Wish I had seen before. Thank you Parker for this and all the other videos you did, I really like your style you rock

[@Halunlimited]

Great Mini Doc about your work style. All your comments are helpful. The results in final product are great. Thanks for posting.

[@fernandoforni9447]

I'm buying full time filmmaker when I get some money. You've earned it, dude

[@0382isaac]

Fernando Forni same

[@DanielFayette]

It's a great investment. After watching it, I've been able to land clients that pretty much immediately helped pay itself off. Good luck on your filmmaking journey!!

[@alexecheverria7746]

When are you getting the money?

[@ramymelhem]

Did you get money yet?

[@michaelacker]

How about that money?

[@JarrodTetreault]

I've been watching your content for quite a while, and I always learn tons from you. I am only a hobbyist, but I truly appreciate how well you explain what you're doing.

[@marcm.official]

wow, i really like your videos. they give damn good information!

[@Hacktivator]

I just got hired by the best Advertising Agency in the west side of Romania as a creative director and there’s a lot of pressure on my shoulders but for some reason I feel very confident in what I’m able to offer and that in part is thanks to your tutorials. I’m definitely going to purchase your course on my first payment.

[@DrAdnan]

It's cool seeing how experience changes your videos.

[@heyjustj]

Fun to see you shoot in this location! I’ve shot a few weddings here and the lighting is always rough with the mix of natural light from the big windows to all the yellow light inside. I love the location but trying to get shots that I actually like in there without being able to really control any of the lighting at an event always makes me feel like I’ve got my hands tied behind my back. Love what you did with your lighting in this video!

[@thomaswindfeld728]

This is one of the best and most educational videos I've seen in a long time.

[@imlazy9735]

This is how we should change through out the years of filmmaker learning !

[@kevinandjenwv]

Love the content, incredible what a little lighting can do. Keep em coming, this is by far the best information available on youtube.

[@PromoMoviescomau]

Parker, once again it is a pleasure to watch the master at work. Thank you for the informative running commentary. I always learn something new from your videos.... and in the end, I think the informal apparel worked in quite well and added some contrast to the formal background!

[@justinjpagan]

I appreciate you including everyone in the piano lifting. You don't want to flex too hard

[@OweAndersen]

so found a video from this channel by accident, now I have been trough most of his videos... awesome content

[@bryantstewart1996]

Its amazing to see your growth from your old footage to your current footage, I can see your determination for greatness Parker great work!

[@krisroams]

It's always a pleasure watching your job shadow videos. Very educational and entertaining.

[@michaelfratino3738]

Well done. Thank you for all the valuable insight. Fantastic musician as well!

[@PeterJCimino]

Man that was awesome!! I cannot believe the difference all the lighting option and really how much it makes a difference. This really taught me so much! Thanks Parker!!!

[@creativevit5961]

You're a magician! Thanks so much for sharing. Super valuable stuff

[@musicforlife123456]

Such. a GREAT. teacher. Amazing job!

[@AmmarLegato]

Every time i watch one of your videos I make sure to check if the SUB button is pressed so I dont miss you the next time . Parker, your channel is the one i cant replace for sure !

[@MrChildofmaster]

Wish I had so many good chanels like this to learn from back then in 2008. :)

[@lylestavast7652]

nice seeing the thought process on light balancing and pre-thinking the angles... loved the "lift where you stand" piano move. :)

[@FirstLast-il6ok]

Wow. Fantastic and thank you for showing your before & after. It's important to see great imagery, but it's also helpful to see that it's a process and helps establish WHY the first didn't work as well. Thank you!

[@v.a.fitness]

OKAY...I been seen your ad all over my instagram and Facebook...an I hate it....and then i was let me see what this guy has...and now I'm a SUB and I love what you do...and it has helped me alot thanks.

[@v.a.fitness]

@@fulltimefilmmaker great job thank you bro

[@TheSupreme1]

dude you're so humble and on point with everything!!

[@TonyRush21]

I've watched this video several times and I just really took notice of your wardrobe tip @ timecode 4:50 Don't feel bad about it, contrasts can be very good for music videos in the same way that black and white go well together if you get what I'm saying. It sparks the interest of the viewer

[@mlindikasa5789]

Greetings from South Africa..... great vid Parker.

[@swaygfx]

that shot with the piano inside was so fire. man good job

[@CristianTavares]

Magnific! you're a genius in the film's world!!!

[@josiahsavino]

Parker this video was incredible... Thanks so much for taking time to teach us...

[@ShawNshawN]

Really kick ass material Parker. Definitely going to sign up once I get my new house set up to get better.

[@tattoorobertjackson]

Awesome video. Very informative.

[@EclipseEntertainmentPresents]

Much better than the last time on lighting finessed it lighting and camera work you really brought the video to life made me feel I was apart of it I've learned a lot trying to get back in the film game its a beautiful way to express yourself.

[@iEMproduction]

Amazing... just one question, how did you color grade this video? There’s anyway to get the preset for free or buy it?

[@alexpeterson771]

These job shadow videos are dope!! Would love to see more Parker

[@linajededios6863]

This is just beautiful, and videos like this one inspire us to keep improving in our videos.

[@alectaylor6554]

Great work dude, it simply goes to show the importance of lighting and framing. As they say in the movies Lights, Camera Action!

[@GabJornacion]

I love the Job Shadow videos, so much to learn in a short amount of time. Gives you not just tips but doable and actionable tips :) Thanks for sharing your knowledge Parker!

[@konstapelwalander]

Man these videos are sooo stuffed with knowledge!! Cheers!!

[@SanathKumarNaibhi]

Thank you sooo much for making this video. It helps a lot for musicians and youtubers like me. Thank you soo much again, I request you to make more videos on this topic (as a series).

[@craigkariem]

Wow..... It's really interesting seeing you work and demonstrating the depth of so many takes on the video shoot and so much detail.....i really learnt alot from this tutorial ....

[@markgowdy8327]

Best BTS video I’ve come across. Killing it, thanks for the help 👊🏼

[@sirashley2355]

i love how monotone and chill you are. that shit is creepy cool

[@HeavySpiral]

I just want to point out how important lighting is, especially the color of it, and white balance. The after looks much cleaner (white makes things look clean and a good "white" light that is not too much blue can make a huge difference) compared to the sun lit one especially since the sun light floods the run and blows a lot of things. Also control lighting can create the depth you want and give the picture a certain feel. It's nice to see the progression in a video and see how much of a difference a few changes can make.

[@ErivesFilms]

Thank you Parker, awesome tutorial! You have the gift of teaching! God bless you!

[@beatricedummer]

I hope to someday have a music video recorded by you! It’s on my dreams list 🦋✨

[@marckcornejo4953]

I was looking something like that! Tnx bro! Your work is just perfect

[@SajjadFilms]

[@Rishaballinone]

[@healing2gether]

Parker, I love watching you work, it’s really helped me understand filming much more! Thank you for taking the time to “teach!” Are you LDS?

[@FitnessArab]

You are the best one in this job bro you have a good way to explain its easy to understand . I learn lot because of you thank you bro .. Nd hello from Morocco 💕

[@Boulbaroud]

[@saith_256]

I love this, and am very passionate. Soon I will get to class

[@elkayakfish]

Great tutorial. I have been subscribed for a while, thanks for the passing of information. I know your comment out clothing but I think it really makes the video. Especially given the song I don’t think formal would have worked tbh. Great work

[@zeliproduction]

WOW! This is golden. Thank you.

[@SunlightMusicAcademy]

Very good job !!!

[@branislavbukurov614]

I like those safety shots.

[@vallejopnw]

First off: great video... I'm serious, I absolutely LOVE THE FACT that you showed footage of your old shoot to really demonstrate what you meant. Plus, some of us don't know much of the lingo so it's cool to get reference. Thank you sir. Subbbbbbbbbed

[@robertfuste]

Always very helpful content - thank you!

[@AhadJibon]

WOW! Thatz really awesome. So much to learn from your videos. In fact I feel ashamed of learning this free. Love from Bangladesh!

[@SanathKumarNaibhi]

Please make a video on tips and tricks to make music videos both indoors and outdoors!

[@5thElementDFW]

I haven't watched it yet but its exactly what I need since I'm editing a group's video now. Sweet!

[@kingbabilla]

Great Job, great team! thanks!

[@IanAndKinaPhotoAndVideo]

Parker, Could you make a video about shooting an outdoor music video, with examples of good establishing shots, and what are good focal lengths and framing to use for a singer as the subject?

[@enzus]

love your work Parker!

[@Dusmar]

These videos will be the reason I will get an A in my video production class

[@DanielFayette]

Parker, you are the man! I'm part of the FTF fam and would love to see some mindset videos from you in the future. Digging the perspective + positivity you bring to filmmaking education. Thanks for all you do!! Happy holidays!

[@arisiocarlos2052]

Trabalho fantástico, estou aprendendo muito com os seus vídeos. Parabéns pelo belo trabalho que você faz e ainda ajuda as outras pessoas.

[@alzibaba]

Superb work Parker, thank you, and fab sounds Tanner. A great combo ;-)

[@anchen9828]

I like the lighting.Thanks for teach.

[@pratulshetty]

Wow a lot to learn! Thanks Parker.

[@D4M]

Hi Parker. Thank you so much for your helpful video. Your videos are really inspiring and helpful in producing your videos. But I do not know how to speak English well so I can not understand it in details. So, there is one question in this video. Why is the color in the 12:51 part a little blue and then it comes back to the original again? I wonder if it was a mistake and what colorgrading did you intend to do. I think it will be really helpful if you give me the answer. I'm always watching the video :-)

[@diabeticjaymes2776]

Learning a lot just from watching your videos

[@thnqolo9667]

Perfect and beautiful job indeed

[@grafikpanda]

Beautiful break down.

[@drafeirha]
