Literally been looking for talking about your cameras in so many videos. Hit the goldmine!

[@Back40Firewood]

Main camera is iPhone 15...and has always been the iPhone (whatever model I had) and then occasionally the GoPro for action shots that need the stabilization.

[@OgleBilly]

Dan, just so you know, the hard work you put into your videos is noticed and appreciated! I really enjoy them! Thanks!

[@unclestinky6388]

The videos are very well put together. It's not surprising that a lot of work goes into it

[@radfishguy6784]

Thumbs up for the yellow lab!

[@FireStartersPremiumFirewood]

One thing I've noticed is that you have a LOT of original ideas and... some of them are great ones. This video is a prime example. I realize you don't ever want to give away all your secrets but I (and I'm sure many others) would love to see even more behind the scenes on content creation. Thanks for sharing! 👊👊👊

[@Back40Firewood]

Thanks for that feedback...I'll probably at some point make more content on creating content. There is more to it than most think.

[@toddpacheco4748]

Dan,it seems like 👍 mando doesn’t want to be to far from Amanda in this video almost like protecting her 😮😊❤

[@Back40Firewood]

Yep he keeps close to her and is always aware of where she's at.

[@YukonBlaze]

Inspiration all over your videos for success. I really appreciate your time and efforts!

[@Back40Firewood]

Thank you so much for this...really appreciate it.

[@larryterrell8458]

Great video, thanks for sharing the “behind the scenes”, very interesting. Your previous experience in producing sure makes your content very good. 👏🏻🇺🇸

[@Back40Firewood]

Thanks, yes I've had a lot of experience both with production and editing...and on both sides of the camera.

[@randallquiring9525]

Nice to see how you do things. Thanks

[@fricknjeep]

hi OH no i am now the grasshopper now .you do a good job and it looks good to me .

[@davidedwards3734]

Great video! Thanks for the explanation of the way you film for us!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@Back40Firewood]

Thanks...glad you enjoyed. I find topics like this interesting and like seeing perspectives from others so thought it might be something interesting to show.

[@mikegreatcarpbode6205]

Hi Dan, I enjoyed the video, very interesting how you spend the time moving cameras and positioning them and Amanda's part in helping ( I said bless you out loud both times she sneezed). Keep up the awesome content.

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

Nice to see how the magic works 👍 From a non content creator I find it interesting 😊

[@adirondackwoodsman]

Good video Dan, it’s always interesting to see how someone else does their creating. Jeff

[@ronbrooks6681]

Howdy Jeff, amazing the way Dan and Amanda work Together. A BIG Thank You for Friday night Live Shout out. My Wife just got Diagnosed with COPD. We are good for now. Be in touch, Buddy, stay Safe, and Hydrated. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.

[@mossman7527]

Anytime you have amazing Amanda in the video. It’s a good video. 😊

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Nicely done and explained. I know just watching you over the years. I have changed a few things, and I think I have gotten better. Overall, it's not bad for me being a 1-man band.

[@justinauman5438]

I enjoy your videos this camera angle you like like a giant and Amanda looks so tiny lol compared to the splitter but enjoy your time with her I wish my wife enjoyed helping with firewood like yours does it me and my daughter for wood splitting and cutting

[@EuroYardService]

I like the behind the scenes stuff. Dan, can you go into how you deal with the constant “pressure” needing to create more content. Do you have days were you don’t film at all and just enjoy splitting wood? Also, how do you keep your footage organized once you put it on a harddrive? Do you store by day, by topic, by camera device used etc

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

I am not as technical as Dan is, me personally I have days. I just don't bother with the camera.

[@Back40Firewood]

Yep I have days I don't film and days I film more than one video. Don't really feel 'pressure' on the content creating side of things. Once I am done editing I trash all source files and just keep the final version that is uploaded.

[@ronbrooks6681]

Great Video as always Dan. You and Amanda do a great Job of Team Work. Nice Oak also, for your Mini Firewood Sales, or Boiler Wood. Stay Safe the Both of you, and Well Hydrated. My Helper my Wife Sue was just Diagnosed with COPD. So we are trying to figure out about how much my Wife (Sue) can help me. I will let you Know.

[@Back40Firewood]

Sorry to hear that Ron...hope she's doing ok.

[@williamellis8993]

Great explanation, Dan. I once heard another KZbinr say that even though his was a woodworking channel, he was more of a content creator than a woodworker. Also, the multiple camera angles give us a better view of you nailing the carport with a piece of bark lol. Bill

[@Back40Firewood]

Yep that's pretty much how I look at it...a content creator with firewood as the subject matter...lol...I haven't hit any bark off the carport for awhile now, I'm overdue! Hahaha

[@tonywoods3197]

QQQ Dan Running the Lights on the Ceiling of your Carport is that Why you Made that Not just to keep the Rain Off your Equipment and Can you Show your lights from the Ceiling facing Down 👍

[@Back40Firewood]

Well the protection from the elements, rain, snow, sun is main reason for the carport. But then blocking the natural light makes a need to have lights.

[@sidqcampbell6892]

Amanda also adds a much needed aspect to the splitting of the wood besides the cam set up. She brings a different audience at times and also she proves to those who doubt a woman's ability to handle a tough job is a false belief. I would suggest a yoga pant/shorts sponsorship for sure! Amanda I for one really appreciates your presence in the splitting videos.. Make sure you and the Little man are on the compensation list.

[@rossnolan2883]

😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@hayesrutherford9415]

Thanks for sharing that. I would like to make a bit more effort in some videos in spite of my lacking personality!

[@tonywoods3197]

Hi Dan you do excellent job Making Content and Showing how All your Machines Work QQQ How Long does your Battery Pack Last While Running your Lights 👍

[@Back40Firewood]

The lights I have draw very little power. It takes a long time to run that battery pack down.

[@waynetharp]

Could you show us the make up dept. and the spread of goodies in the green room next time,please???

[@Back40Firewood]

Hahahaha, sure I'll add that to the list.

[@templar1694]

So much fuel for a wood gasifier generator.

[@Stihlalive044]

Amanda should be running the splitter and you and your son horsing the rounds over to the splitter.

[@Back40Firewood]

She would rather not run the splitter...I always give her the option and she would rather move the rounds.

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

👏🪵👍🏼

[@WilleysFirewood]

It’s very time consuming to make videos of decent quality.
