Quietly shooting two rolls of 35mm

[@alexisfolliot3018]

hi, just wanted to tell you that watching your video was a real pleasure. the videography, the edit, the music, the topic and of course the shoots! the mood of being lost in the city, especially vegas, no talking, just driving, walking and capturing little scene of life with neon lights and motels all around you in the middle of the desert is really well captured, very meditative. well done, new subscriber and the shots from 17:21 to 17:51 are GREAT

[@graincheck]

so so so glad you’re here 😭⚡️

[@chilledllama8830]

Amazing, just amazing work! This felt like those meditative movies that let the Art do the talking and im all for it! Felt like a mini documentary. Blessings! And thanks always staying unique!

[@julioguima8126]

Your videos are pure art in the middle of this caos. Keep going ❤️✊🏾

[@graincheck]

this made me cry. thank you 😭

[@mnltphts]

love the vibe of the images. this is exactly why we love film photography! thanks for sharing and keep it up!

[@wolfandiron]

The couple on the bench! So sweet. That frame tells a whole story.

[@graincheck]

😭❤️‍🔥

[@coffeepyros]

Creating photographs and a long short-film at the same time - amazing! The time lapse out of your car on the street with lights flying by was very cool!

[@markgoostree6334]

I watch you wander through the area, shooting what you see, and really.... I just cannot do that. I have so many pictures that my kids will just throw away in a couple of years (maybe) that I feel stymied. at 74 I have shot so much of what happened to be in front of me, I have a hard time burning through a roll. It took three months to complete a roll through my Minolta srt 101. I do not know when I started the roll in the Nikon F-100 (I think it was early August) . Oh well. Good video you've made... maybe that is part of my problem. I get to watch you go out and shoot, I get a "fix" by enjoying your clicks, and just think I'll go some other day.

[@Mirageeeee]

Taylor I just wanted to say thank you for always making these videos! I really love the mix of chill and more methodical videos that you do and they inspire me to do more and make my own too. I really love what you do and I hope you keep sharing these moments with us! 🫶

[@thedarkslide]

16:30 I love that part of old Vegas. I shot many rolls of film on this street years ago on a Leica M3. Glad to see that mart still there. That entire side street is nice to photograph.

[@woodshark1]

Beautiful, atmospheric, vivid, subtle, moody, what a great video❤

[@thevoiceman6192]

These are nice. I see you have stepped up your game. The reasons I do all my photoshooots outdoors.

[@steveklamkin]

I do SO like your videos. Almost as much as I love your photographs. Quite remarkable! 💕

[@Victor0213]

Love this. The sounds, the images and the ambiance. Amazing work!

[@T-Prime848]

My favorite type of photography videos to watch before I go to sleep It made me calm and relaxed Well the night shots are very inspiring and totally cinematic Loved how you captured those night shots in Vegas I do wish to do analog photography but it’s becoming very expensive to do this here in Germany and that’s why i am using my Fuji cameras the Xpro.1 & XE.1 to get some how the analog vibe I know that nothing can beat analog photography because it’s just pure organic experience so I hope that in the upcoming future I might try to do some analog photography…

[@Onebrokedrone]

Its always a good day when ms.grain check does a upload. Awesome job 😊. Epic shots

[@crainseye8499]

one of the things i appreciate most about your videos is the lack of commentary and just letting the photos speak for themselves. and yours speak volumes.

[@graincheck]

this comment will stay stained in my brain. thank you x 1 million

[@nolawernicke9078]

Love the chill vibe of your video, well done.

[@oscarzuludelta]

A fantastic piece of work Taylor.

[@gewglesux]

Lovely.... I enjoy your work very much... thanks for continuing to making film great.

[@Benjamin20627]

Me encantan tus videos el ambiente la música el estilo el color el sentimiento que das pura inspiración!

[@victorcarmelo8606]

Wonderful neon shots, lovely memories of LV, thanks for sharing.

[@jebeq2007]

Great video and shots! I specially love the Vegas shots on 800T. Being stuck in the cold and snow here in Denver these kind of videos are therapeutic!

[@michaelsherck5099]

Your video is very welcome this morning. It fell below freezing Thanksgiving night and isn't supposed to rise above freezing until late next week, maybe. My little dog is in a shirt huddled underneath a blanket and she's staring accusing at me. "You have the fancy opposable thumbs, human -- do something!" Thanks for the sunshine and mild temperatures!

[@D_R_Martin]

Love the shots, especially the night shots with the neon signs .

[@AlainGuindon]

Well done! Enjoyed that, just like being there. Waist level finder and one lens mostly (I think?). Thanks!

[@graincheck]

yes! just a 50mm

[@wolfganggerlach1868]

Always interesting following your work. I bought my Nikon F3 in 1985 and I loved the beautiful HP-finder! I switched to the F100 which I switched ...etc. In these days I have the full mechanical Nikon FM2N as my film camera. Kind regards from Sweden

[@gu4xinim]

Sunday morning, had breakfast, sitting with a coffee, dog sleeping in my lap, this video playing. I'm vibing hard with it

[@graincheck]

+1000 aura

[@photoholic6369]

Great and fascinating video ! Great music, the video relaxed and inspired me ! Thank you !

[@giuseppe_idc]

Love your videos!

[@Hellseeker1]

Just got some lens heaters and -20 degree battery pack, now to find some decent winter places to photograph. I'm up in MN, so ain't much here. I think when you live in a pace for so long it just all seems so boring, that's why I did the road trip this summer. Had to do something, I had fun.

[@frankseptillion]

This is amazing, I feel as if my soul have been healed.

[@patrickrostker6693]

Gorgeous images 🎉

[@otbvisuals]

Always has the vibes right..

[@Phil995511]

I love your work, your images are great, it makes you want to leave the old continent and come travel in your beautiful country :)

[@Hellseeker1]

@18:03 That's a cool shot with your hair lit up against the skyline.

[@scottmorris118]

No commentary…no context… just your images, cinematography,and creativity…. You need to chill! Great work!

[@Ahsan9zj3]

Absolute Class

[@Hellseeker1]

I could drove the strip but it was rush hour both times I drove by Vagas, I said F that noise. Maybe next time.

[@antonfedorchenko88]

nice work! Thank you)

[@matthewn7425]

Loved this video. Genuine question, did you shoot this alone. It's a cinematic masterpiece. Also did you go out and shoot alone? I'm asking because I'm genuinely afaid to sometimes, not because of safety because I think people will think I'm weird being out alone taking photos of things. Either way thank you for this video, it gave me a lot to think about.

[@SteveMillerhuntingforfood]

I don't think the act of shooting pictures is weird, it's the act of taking a video of one self that might look strange. Especially if you're talking to the camera.

[@graincheck]

i do make my videos all alone! it’s weird sometimes but i don’t mind all that much. i remind myself i am DOING MY THING and no one will stop me from that ❤️‍🔥

[@garrytrinh3062]

Great cinematography.

[@Journeyingwithbrandilyn]

LOVE

[@trondaadnesen]

Really like the lifeguard tower shot, among many others. Care to share filmstock used for that one? Family Food Mart one is a banger!

[@graincheck]

the first few shots were to finish off a roll of Fujifilm 400!

[@mfgonz]

do you usually shoot these throughout a single day or is it a several consecutive days type of filming process? just curious :)

[@graincheck]

depends! this was 3 separate days :)

[@sofia.casado]

Im a fan of your vídeos, and would love to know where do you get your music from 🙏🏻 saludos desde México 🇲🇽 ❤

[@graincheck]

all from trackclub! :)

[@sofia.casado]

@ gracias 🫶🏻

[@jcc5996]

What brand is your bag?

[@graincheck]

ona!

[@st04bez]

A beautiful video

[@pdcorlis]

Serene or Lonely, I can’t decide.

[@bijan_sabet]

beautiful

[@johnlarsson4437]

Confession: I’m commenting after watching 01:52 into this video. Firstly I almost closed this before it got going thanks to the putrid greyed out KEH ad. I don’t object to the ad and I’m a customer. Whatever that visual effect is, pull the lever and flush. Also firstly, I’m happy I didn’t swipe this away. The opening video sequence quickly removed the disdain I experienced resulting from the KEH opening. I’m on the East coast and I don’t think we have the giant Chinese white cardboard takeaway boxes for lifeguard stations here. Hopefully this description brings a smile to you. It certainly did to me when I saw it. This made me laugh and compelled me to comment after not even 02:00 into the video. Now it’s time to finish watching.

[@miguelangeloviedoperez3096]

I mean the color composition, you were literally the ocean and beach

[@scottmorris118]

Bruh!

[@sijilo]

[@_Just_Some1]

05:26 constructive criticism, you need to learn how to waste less film when loading! wow. I’d say that was 2 maybe 3 frames wasted right there.

[@graincheck]

shot 36 whole frames :) no frames wasted

[@_Just_Some1]

@ I can squeeze 38-39 sometimes 40. 36 is not the total frames in a roll.

[@chicagoangler]

Cinestill 800 is the only good cinestill stock out there. The rest is just ewwww. It’s like a stock that fails to understand white balance. Please destroy me in the comments…

[@in0711]

This wasnt quiet :( Please bring back the videos without the music

[@graincheck]

will do :)

[@FelixGA9]

lol your film shifts magenta and cool in sunlight. 81 series filter and green cc would fix that. Your night pictures shift green and cool. An 81 series filter and some magenta CC would fix that. But who knows? Maybe your thing is washed out color! When your color temperature in the scene is outside the color temperature range of the film you get crap color. You would really benefit from using a color meter.

[@graincheck]

ever considered that i’m doing exactly what i want, how i want? ⚡️

[@FelixGA9]

@ lol. Yes. That’s why I said. Who knows? Maybe your thing is washed out color! But, honestly, that’s what I hear most from people who don’t know how to actually tune and control color film.
