San Diego in December - Sony A6300 Cinematic Test

[@benjaminottomedia7016]

The fact that you made this look incredible with the kit lens proves it’s not all about gear. As long as you have something semi-decent, it’s just skill that turns it into art. Well done my friend.

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Thanks!

[@maxchadwick1052]

This is one of the few videos of this camera that really nails the cinematic look. Really nice job, you obviously have some serious videography skills

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Max Chadwick thanks, I appreciate it!

[@TheReidNantes]

This is my favourite amateur cinematic. Inspiration right here!

[@studiosecondera]

This is some kinda holiday utopia. It looks so amazing and sattisfying

[@harishgonthina7696]

Finally, something that's shot in true cinematic mode. Great Job, Cheers!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Thanks!

[@AlanAndDance]

Can't believe this was shot with the kit lens!! Awesome stuff!!

[@A.Lewisfilms]

This song is so badass, great video man!

The vibes in this video are rad. Digging the video

[@masoncrowe]

ive watched this multiple times over the past 2 weeks. One of my favorite videos rn i dunno why you only had 63 subscribers but now u have 64

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Haha, thanks man! I don't post too often on my personal KZbin - a lot of my own fun work is on my instagram (joshua_delanoit). Otherwise my clients usually put work up I do for them.

[@BendtheMusic]

Wow, this is the best test I've seen with the a6300. Well done. And I can't believe that's with the kit lens!

[@dtjd7590]

Could tell from the first shot that this was going to be good!

[@jcbarker1]

Really nice! Good pacing. Thinking about pulling the trigger on an A6500. Have an RX100 V and it's great for the size. Would like to change lenses on occasion though.

[@djopatr3yvisuals638]

Love the grade

[@jacobexplorz]

you just gained a sub, and also convinced me to go with this camera!:) keep it up man!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Thanks! If you have the extra cash I would recommend the A6500 - but I'm still using my 6300 for videography use.

[@supaa8518]

I'm from the hood and I think this video is DOPE👏🔝

[@JasonMcGhan]

Really enjoy the grade on this one. I've also been shooting in Cine4 for my stuff. Top notch!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Yeah, it's really nice and versatile for those times that you're shooting out in changing elements. However, I try to shoot in SLOG-2 when I know I can light my scene or if I'm going for a particular look.

[@achjanaja]

Really nice shots and good composing :)

[@kaycgrocks]

Beautiful vid!

[@StephenCoyle96]

Thanks for the song! Nice video too keep it up

[@FivosVas]

[@LogicvsLuxury]

Super inspiring video! I just got this camera and am so stoked to make gorgeous videos like thissss!! Of course, mine will be garbage in comparison, but a girl can dream :)

[@KoichiKoichi]

Great shot, edit and color correction!

[@ColinPatrickWeiss]

exact Color correcting procedure? looks great.

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Thanks, I think a few of the shots are over-done. But basically I shot this in Cine4 and tried to underexpose by 1 or 2 stops (something I read, as well it was very overcast out most of the days). I then used Deluts Johnny Behiri and IWLTBAP - Sedona (both free LUTs) to start off the shots. From there I deepened the blacks (which is I prob could have done without in the shots I used Deluts) and added exposure back in when it was too dark (make sure to add some contrast when you add exposure). I then fidgeted w/ the color temp to correct for the environments. Hope this helps.

[@CHOWIXCHANNEL]

Cool stuff

[@viseworksvisual]

Dope work, do you put the Detail and Crispening settings down? (on the Profile Picture menu)

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Hmm, I don't believe I did for anything shot in this video.

[@oodoo_wrld]

Very cool

[@ilybbrlanejr4389]

Your video did it for me! I'm getting one!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Glad you liked it! Enjoy your camera!

[@skiathosadventures5095]

beautiful!!!!!

[@ajkang4]

dude this is nice!! I just got my Sony and it's sick

[@vickyabdillah]

AWESOME ! The color tones are perfect! Are you using ND Filter in this video ??

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Thanks, Vicky! Nope, I had literally just gotten the camera before we flew to San Diego so just the A6300 body and kit lens. I just underexposed everything by 1-2 stops. It got some great images, but others are a little dark for my liking.

[@elmomentostudio5886]

May I have the download link of Deluts Johnny Behiri LUTs?

[@OLLIversusCOOPER]

editing is really nice Work

[@fieq5678]

hiii, this is a very nice footage, just wondering did the a6300 cause alot of probloem, cz im doing my research before buying this one \

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

syaffiq hambali problems? I mean, it has it's faults. In 4k there is s lot of rolling shutter unless you have a stabalizer and it does tend to overheat if you're shooting in the heat.

[@fieq5678]

well i dont really plan to shot in 4k, bcz most of my work only on 1080p, which works fine for me, thankz for the respond check out my work cheers

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

syaffiq hambali ah, okay. Well, then you won't have to worry about overheating. I work in 1080 also, but downsizing 4k to a 1080 timeline will get you the best looking footage out of the A6300.

[@fieq5678]

alright thank u for the respond

[@andreemartinez7813]

good job men !

[@ShotbyPicto]

Really great grading! What color mode did you use in the Cine4 profile? (E.g. S-Gamut3.cine etc).

[@navyrasrisansuk5327]

Thanks for sharing a great video. Could you please teach me how to stabilize your footage? especially the last footage (lower angle follow the girl's walk). Thank you.

[@joshdoesmotion]

Hiya, Honestly, all I did for this video was use warp stabilizer on these clips. You just need to play around with the settings (the smoothness %, if there is motion, how the warp is achieved) to find the best combination for each individual clip. Adobe's stabilizer system isn't fool proof and depending on your motion, shakes, and the motion of the subject--you'll need to adjust the settings accordingly. In fact, that clip of her walking on the beach was one of the roughest clips -- I was zoomed all the way in, walking along with her. It's not a great example of using the software well since that footage has some very noticeable warps. Thanks!

[@joshdoesmotion]

Sorry. One other thought -- if you're shooting handheld you will need to shoot with that stabilization in mind (unless your camera has in-body/in-lens stabilization). So that means, try and do smooth pans of your subject, if you're trying to do tracking keep your feet on the ground as you move (bent knees, roll the foot). In addition, if you shoot to slow things down, they will naturally look a bit less shaky. So shooting in 60fps will allow you to slow the clip down 40-50%. If it still needs to be smoother, in Adobe you can nest that clip and apply warp to it to increase the smoothness. Hope this helps.

[@elmomentostudio5886]

This is an excellent video! I would love to know the grading process!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

el Momento Studio I wrote a bit about it on a pinned comment above.

[@elmomentostudio5886]

Is there any scope that you can make a tutorial on how you graded this? I am willing to pay for the tutorial dear! I am a novice in color grading and need some guidance actually!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

el Momento Studio I can make a little something going over the basics of scopes. I am releasing a video here soon where I utilized scopes a bit more tactfully than I did in this video, so I'll release a little work flow thing to go along with it as well.

[@elmomentostudio5886]

Thanks, May I have the download link for the free Deluts Johnny Behiri LUTs?

Im not entirely onboard with the colours but thats a personal thing. Looks nice!

[@Data_analyst.]

Gooーd!!!

[@bjhaydon23]

Do you used a filter in your len? by the way, we would like a video before and after, see the flat footage that you are recording, editing in color grading, the detaills that you can illustrate. Thanks

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Bernardo Haydon no filter, but an ND filter would have been incredibly useful since it was so bright.

[@bjhaydon23]

thanks man. I would like how is your footage before and after, a example to download, or a video explaining. A link with information is good too. i'm new in this, i have a A6300 with len 30m 1.8, but i not have idea.

[@rehanrock2003]

Great. Video man, did you faced camera overheating issue while shooting this video and how serious was that ?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Not with this project - but I have while filming a wedding on a 90 degree day which was a nightmare.

[@GoldenbergBoris]

Hello! This video is very beautiful! Please, tell me how you got this color? What filter? What are the settings in adobe premiere?Sorry for my english.

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

No need to apologize! I shot this in Cine-4 (PP6 on A6300) and used Deluts LUT package to color. I had to tinker w/ it some - bringing the blacks/whites up and down, as well as lessening the LUT effect for each shot. In addition, I added a 4k film grain overlay that I found online (for free) and layered it over at around 30% opacity, just to add some more natural grain - you could probably take or leave that last step, I just prefer it.

[@GoldenbergBoris]

Thank you so much!

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

You're welcome!

[@RikiyaBain]

This was with the kit lense!!!!

[@TheCinderDude]

thanks!

[@TheCinderDude]

respect man!! keep it up and Ill keep watching for sure

[@TravelingPursuit]

Very nice video! :) Did you use a profile within the camara?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Cine4

[@TheObaidUtari]

Damn it DILDORK, this is too amazing! Also, this might be a dumb question, but what did you use autofocus to get these shots? If so, which type of autofocus?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

NoBigDeal Thanks! I actually don't think I used autofocus at all on this video. I had just gotten the camera and wasn't entirely sure of its capabilities. However, the A6300s AF is pretty great and I use it for a lot of tracking shots. The only lens I had st the time of this video was the kit, it's also the lens I use for most tracking shots since it is really light and easy to use on a gimbal.

[@TheObaidUtari]

Good stuff. This might sound like an even dumber question but all of your manual focusing looks super sharp; you definitely nailed focus. Do you have a method to nail manual focus? Whether it be using EVF vs. LCD, etc. Btw You got yourself a subscriber so keep up the good work.

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

NoBigDeal thanks again! I do like to use the EVF when I'm going handheld and it suits the shot. Focus peaking helps a ton and this was the first camera I have owned with it. Very useful. As well, I like to use a small unsharp mask on footage that is slightly out-of-focus. I think downsizing 4k footage also helps with this. I appreciate the questions, nothing dumb about them.

[@TheObaidUtari]

Thanks again. Keep up the great work and thank you for inspiring aspiring filmmakers like me.

[@TheObaidUtari]

Oh also, has 4k ever overheated on you? If so, how long before it did and are there any workarounds to fix that issue? And did you use an ND filter in this video? If so which one?

[@TheObaidUtari]

Hey I was wondering, what software did you use to edit this footage? (Final Cut Pro X? Premiere Pro?)

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

NoBigDeal I prefer to edit in Premiere Pro!

[@TrusReal]

What kind of lens did you use, if any?

[@Revelry00]

daaamn this is nice footage!!! and all of this was shot only with the kit lens?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Yes! I was really happy coming from my old Canon T2i. The kit lens looks very nice although you can't get a very shallow DOF at 50mm and the bokeh leaves quite a bit to be desired. It's solid though.

[@NickC9545]

This is so rad. Was this done using auto settings? I hope so because I have the same 6300 kit and would love to get quality like this out of my cam. BTW, if anybody is experiencing overheating in 4K, I found an easy fix in the settings.

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Nah, no auto settings.

[@ilonaceline]

Hi! What did you use to stabilize the footage?

[@MishoMisho74]

Awesome vid! What song did you use?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

MishoMisho74 it is Sea Bird by the Alessi Brothers. Great older band that deserves some love and attention.

[@IsmailAhres]

what bitrate should i use when rendering a video to get such hight quality on youtube?

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Ismail Ahres hmm. I'm no expert on it, but i believe KZbin is locked at 16mb. Vimeo might be variable? I'm not sure.

[@bjhaydon23]

what steps are you using for make that? what i need to read for be a similar footage? i have a A6300 but i don't know how i can do that. help us. :)

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Hi Bernardo, I would look into the different picture profiles your camera has. Each profile has different qualities (how much saturation,contrast,color tone is 'baked in' to the profile - as well as differences in dynamic range). Knowing how to properly expose the image for how you'll color grade is very important.

[@bjhaydon23]

Perfect.. but could you show us how u do that? some video tutorial or pictures resumen for example. Since your record to final color grading, the precess. thanks

[@IsysKopfparty]

Its very very amizing video.., finally i bought sony a6300, but when i shoot.. i have very anoying wiggle, so much shake..and i hate it., :(, its like better use canon or nikon dslr, i still use adapter lens use nikon lens, not yet sony lens with OSS, can you tell me some tips to shoot smooth in a6300 like you without gimbal..? Or you use gimbal? Thank you before :)

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Gautama ARTS so that's the rolling shutter, I assume. Try to go for steadier, static or panning shots? Or use the kit lens which has image stabilization in it. This was all handheld with the kit lens and also steadied in post.

[@GautamaARTS]

lo-five creative yup the rolling shutter its very bad.., i already try very steadier, slowly panning,tilt or handheld very" slow.., but the result its still cannot smooth as i use the dslr, as your video either, still event little but the vibration on footage still there, i can warp stabilizer but if every single footage i must warp its very painfull for me..huhuu.., is use lens with OSS make big deffrent do you think? Or i just sell itu and buy tje alternatif like panasonic g85 with IBIS? Ever you use it or khow? That M3/4 sensor...

[@lo-fivecreative3605]

Gautama ARTS I hear you. The A6500 has ISS that supposedly fixes this issue more or less. I haven't used that Panasonic cam before, but the GH5 is pretty fantastic if you can upgrade to that. I decided to buy a gimbal to fix the issue because my A6300 will be my B cam here in the future. It's a really nice camera, but that's one of its main drawbacks. I would honestly upgrade rather than double down, if I were you. The lens with steady shot does help, but they're so expensive you may as well upgrade the body to something with ISS. Just my opinion!

[@GautamaARTS]

lo-five creative thank you for fast reply i appreciated.., yeah... all you said its true.., its very dificullt wanna have great all around camere in low bujet..huhu.., i dont have any bujet for upgrade gh5 anyway..hihii.., maybe for now i must be patient, improve my skill and maybe try buy the sony OSS lens first and try.., so i can create smooth, nice video like your..hehee., if still not..just find the other solution..hehe.., by the way thank once again for sharing bro :)
