2 hours of calm film photography in Japan.

[@teocrawford]

Hellooo, to finish off the Japan series I decided to make one last giga-video with all the footage from the various film photography trips I was able to experience in Japan. I'm thinking this could be cool to just put on in the background while working on something, a bit like a photography version of a study-with-me video :D Also big thank you to Squarespace for sponsoring the video! Head to www.squarespace.com/teocrawford to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code "TEOCRAWFORD". I hope you enjoy it, have a good week!

[@tonypmedia]

This was not only a great background vid you took all the giga time to make, but I'm watching it too. It's therapeutic, soothing and eases my soul. That song choice in the video around 2:57... PERFECT. Would love to get the artist and name of the song. That's the good stuff! Thank you again from Texas for bringing this video to the front. LOVE to see more of this.

[@anton9410]

Maaaaan, there is no way someone can just leave the video playing in the background... such a nice footage and well picked music!

[@GawxArt]

Thank you for this Teo! You’re such an inspo!

[@KillerTacos54]

Omg fancy seeing you here! What a huge flex to say Gawx watches your videos

[@teocrawford]

Aww thank you so much Gawx🥹❤️

[@bigbuba5212]

I knew you'd be here Your videography has improved so much

[@ysabellaperez3377]

MY FAVORITE CREATIVESSS AHHHH 💗

[@jerrreyyy]

This is one of the most beautiful videos i've seen on youtube, and your music selection is amazing too.

[@creasik_]

Almost sad to see this is the last one of the japan series, it was truly an amazing work from you each time !

[@teocrawford]

I‘m sad about it yeah😭😂 But I will be returning to Japan as soon as possible and will of course bring you along again✨☺️

[@creasik_]

@@teocrawford Nice to hear ! Impatient to see what you will bring into life until then 👏

[@fleetingstill]

this is such a visual treat; once when I can finally visit japan, i'd love to experience japan with this full of love and wonder POV, like how you portray. It is relaxing and all the right slices of life. I cannot emphasize this enough, I love this 2 hours documentary of yours!

[@portiaregencia]

More of this kind of long videos. I play this while working, placed on the left side of my desktop. Such a breathe of fresh air while working.

[@HMJapanTravel]

Beautiful. The blooming effect is lovely.

[@sanzwastaken]

Thank you for this beautiful video. It brought real peace to my soul. It made me think about a lot of things, specially the things I really want in life and what my priorities are. Thank you.

[@Budi_Studios]

The beauty of Japan looks so expensive and was not built overnight. It's like visiting a tourist spot, but every corner of the village and city is constructed like a tourist destination. No wonder many people admire it and continue to visit to see it firsthand. Sorry if wrong..

[@lseri.80]

Teo you’re so inspiring that your films always give me such a nice heartwarming feeling that always makes my day, keep up the good work dude, you’re amazing really

[@teocrawford]

Aww that’s so cool to hear, thank you so much!🥹🙏🏼

[@earthling9891]

This will be my morning program, I‘m sooo looking forward to indulge in this tomorrow !!!

[@FrankValchiria]

better than a movie

[@ymW-yd5zg]

Love this kind of vedio so much!

[@levivandenberg4223]

I love this! You're one of the reasons I got into analog photography. Thank you.

Are the photos taken with a pentax ? But which film ?

[@KillerTacos54]

Love it!

[@1550592535]

is the video recorded with a promist filter? Or done in post? Love the dreamy mood!

[@marshawk]

This video looks great, can you share how you graded it, appreciate that.

hi, from ukraine❤

[@Rocketryman]

Very nice. :-) One thing... 2 hours of calm videography in Japan. You videoed, you did not film. :-) Film, filming, and filmmaking are the most misused words in the industry. 🙂 Digital Video and film require different skill sets. Having DIFFERENT historical and TECHNOLOGICAL timelines spanning 150 years. Have pride and knowledge of the gear we use including the words that describe what we do. Our tools are Digital Video, Non-linear, and CGI. We are moviemakers, not filmmakers. We do what film wished it could. We are Videographers and/or cinematographers. 🙂 We video or are videoing, we do not film. That's the other RARE professionals who know how to use film and film cameras, like an ARRIFLEX 435 Panavision R-200 and Steenbeck flatbed film editors. Know the difference and have a better understanding of the craft. You will also stand out in an industry polluted with point-and-shoot "pros". Respect to you.✌♥

[@teocrawford]

it says "film photography"... as in shooting on film.. analogue photography...

[@Rocketryman]

@@teocrawford Except noting he used was a film camera. :-) Misuse of the word film.

[@teocrawford]

@@Rocketryman Every photograph in this this video was shot on film… I don’t see the misuse😅

[@Rocketryman]

@@teocrawford Also, no such thing as analog photography. Another misuse. There is Film Photography and Digital Photography. Example: SLR vs DSLR People say analog photography, because, due to misinformation, they have to come up with some other way of defining film photography because they refer to Digital Vidoe as filming. When a film camera is used its filming, when a Digital Video camera is used it's VIDEOING. :-) Now you have learned something. Respect! :-)

[@humphreybrogart8392]

He took photos on film, hence he did film photography. What are you talking about

[@1vanch00ng3]

Does it ever feel like people are judging you when taking photos in public?

[@NL0Gwenster]

As somebody that's lived in Tokyo for a few years, and still go back to Japan bi-annually I can at least safely say that *NOBODY CARES* in Japan about you taking pictures or not. It's quite refreshening, as where I'm originally from (Netherlands) people will literally go stand next to you if i'm say taking a picture (with a camera, instead of a phone) of say , a random building. And you'd see ppl try to line-up your shot and take it too. Like.. what the ? lol. Or just mind your business if you're shooting a model on the street.

[@teocrawford]

In Austria, yes. In Japan, never - Japan is the country of cameras and photography, they’re very used to seeing photographers and don’t care🤷🏻‍♂️🙌🏼

[@qawazauri3422]

What a pity such nice long video of my beloved country but spoil by Korean acoustic song.

[@austinwilson3]

I hate that I’m saying this but Florida is the most boring place for photography.

[@draby11able]

You’re my biggest inspiration when it comes to photography.

[@iensmnd425]

no frrrr

[@teocrawford]

Ohh my, thank you so much!🥺🫶🏼

[@imagineAnOnionHeckImagine2]

literally bro same for me

[@SubkhanSarif]

Me too… I literally just started film photography ever since I found your yt channel

[@stevess7777]

Nice video, but what threw me off was the Korean music over Japanese footage lol

[@karl6525]

1:02 hahaha had the same impression. I was like "sounds like Zion T.. not sure but it's 100% korean" 😂

[@marcelofantoni]

Teo: I'm writing to you from Argentina. I am a regular observer of travel videos, walking tours, etc. I want to congratulate you for your excellent work of photography and editing of this video that has led me to know those beautiful places that Japan has. The music is inspiring and perfectly accompanies every image, every intention that you have wanted to give to this material. I appreciate this video that I have enjoyed it a lot and I have it saved to watch it at any time. In my country, when we say goodbye to someone for whom we feel great affection or admiration or because we like their work, we end with a "I send you a big hug" and thank you again for sharing your work with us.

[@rianrunsaround]

Am I the only one that gets Studio Ghibli vibes watching this? Especially with the fantastic music choices. Lovely.

[@ericofelix2005]

Amazing country, amazing photography, amazing film, amazing editing, sequence and music. Even you synchronized each sequence on the first beat of new bar (from the music)! Man, you're AMAZING!

[@nelson.arguello]

So that's why it took 30 hours to render the video! 😅 already enjoying it so much! Great work Teo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@christinespov]

Just subscribed because THIS is amazing and beautiful 😍

[@lucid1026]

I am obsessed with this video, everything is just perfect. the sound design or should i say the selection of music, it is just superb. the photographs, the clips from japan. the environment of japan itselt. i have rewatched this so many times, i play it when i'm doing something or studying, a study with me with this music would be amazing. amazing video teo, love all the way from asia !!

[@HirokawaBoys]

huge respect from Japan!!! It's so amazing to see a video like this, makes me feel proud of my own country :)

[@arohanproductionhouse3511]

Just Awesome Video U Presented, Photography is also Wonderful, Which 2 cameras U actually Used Brother...?

[@Skeletin1]

This inspired me to clean and organize my room in which I recently moved in. Thank you for this beautiful video.

[@mxfxdlg]

I feel much better now. BTW, leaving this to just occupy background space is absolutely impossible. Looks and sounds far too beautiful to treat as noisy wallpaper. Thank you. New subscriber.

[@koen388]

Awesome stuff man, you inspired me and got me to get my own camera last week. Can't wait to shoot beautiful scenes :)

[@larrynguen]

thanks for the amazing video. you took the photos here with the Lumix GX80? or are they actual film photos?

[@studio_cloud]

어쩌다보니 일본영상을 찾아보다가 여기까지 왔습니다. 일본의 풍경안에 bgm은 한국의 음악이라 더 좋네요~~.

[@iina_tg]

Aww i love films and Japan. May i use some of your films? I'm going to use it as background.. :>

[@GoldenThreads1]

Tempo on the music selections is way too high... This isn't having test effect. Also should have chosen classical and instrumental tracks.

[@OfficialOozey]

I absolutely loved this! No way I could do something else with this in the background haha. Is there a chance we can get a list of the music you used for this video?

[@zeastburg]

17:54 unc got that casual EDC wrist dangle camera nonchalance 🫡 looks like maybe a canon powershot?

[@송따르릉]

영상과 사진들 보기좋습니다. 다른 영상들도 살펴볼께요. 감사합니다.

[@pattycake888]

This touched me so much! There is so much artful beauty in every scene and photo! First time visit to Japan later this year 🙏✨💜

[@rellimmot]

Mate, you list everything down to the rain protector in your description but I still don't know the most important peice of equipment:: what film cameras were you using?!?! Just the mju and .. was it an AE-1 I maybe spotted? Fill us in thanks.

[@teocrawford]

Ohh lol true, I haven't updated that list with my analogue equipment haha :,D I have a video on my camera collection if you want to go in a bit more depth. In this video all the photos were shot on one of these three cameras: Olympus XA3, Olympus Mjuii 170vf, Pentax K1000

[@tebms8215]

are you using korean songs? hahahahah

[@teocrawford]

@@tebms8215 Yes, they hit just the right vibe, just like I also used some English songs. Sadly Epidemic Sound doesn’t offer many Japanese songs (yet).

[@giancarloalfanno]

Teo I just want to say thank you for your art and for sharing these moments and captured memories with all of us! 🙏 Because of you and your videos and photos I got inspired and motivated to dive into the world of film photography! I bought an Olympus XA3 which has brought me so just joy while using, and I also bought an Olympus OM-1 SLR which I'll be getting delivered from Japan this week! I also dropped off my first 3 rolls of film earlier today to have developed, and I'm so excited (and a bit nervous as well lol) to see the results! The way you see the world and capture moments in time thru your cameras is breathtaking and beautiful to witness! Thank you again SO much! ❤

[@austinduran3557]

did you have another similar hour long photography video?

[@ggggeorgiaa]

this is easily one of the best videos on youtube now 🙌 so well done.

[@fantastical313]

19:25 Can someone tell me the name of this song and artist? Thank you

[@fredfan6316]

The video is beautiful! It would be even better if the background music were in Japanese instead of Korean.

[@teocrawford]

Yeees I‘d love that too🥲 Sadly Epidemic Sound (where I get my music for videos) is only just beginning to expand their library into the Japanese language now, so it‘ll still take some time☺️

[@megantanart]

TEOOO I LOVE THISSSS

[@teocrawford]

Nyaahhh thank you Megan!

[@Adabin-d4d]

Another absolute masterpiece from Teo. Outstanding.

[@lil.ikuraa]

Hi Teo! This is such a soothing way of displaying the lovely little moments. I loved that you showcased videos and mixed in photos. It felt like we were going through your camera roll. 🙂

[@malikyussuff4223]

GREAT VIDEO!! WHAT FILM CAMERA AND FILM DID U USE?

[@teocrawford]

Aww thank you! Ohhh all sorts😅 Mostly a Pentax K1000 or an Olympus Mjuii 170vf. But films I used all sort from Fuji 100, Fuji Premium 400 to Kodak Gold and Ultramax🤷🏻‍♂️ If you want to see some more details you can check out my Instagram, where I share many of these photos accompanied by some hashtags with the camera and the film (if I remember it lol).

[@atloos]

So beautiful, Ill be in japan for the first time in 17 days. Gonna bring my digicam and thinking of bringing my old EOS 1100D from my mother to practise photography

[@Kelly74525]

used this to study, I didnt even know I was studying. Definitely need more videos like this, thank you Teo!

[@dduddi3]

영상미 미쳤어,,❤️👍🏻

[@LM43243]

Fantastic, Teo!! Been half watching half listening while working, and love it. Mind sharing the track list? Saw that the songs were from ep. sound but sadly couldn't find them :( Cheers, more of this!

[@mijaumiaumiao]

So motivational. The photographer makes the photo not the camera. Absolutely beautiful work

[@Michovic]

You’re such an inspiring artist, wonderful work, priceless experience and loved how all pictures turned out ✨

[@teocrawford]

Aww thank you so much!😭🫶🏼

[@shonen84]

Dear Teo: thank you for sharing this wonderful journey. It reminds me of my dream trip to Japan back in 2016. My friends are from Nagano prefecture. We went to the Snow Monkeys, Matsumoto Castle, and they even went back to Tokyo to visit Asakusa, Akihabara and Odaiba with me. We also went to Kyoto. Your film brought back the memories, I got emotional watching it. Japan really is like a dream..the sounds, views, people, food.. thank you.

[@deezmemes007]

I was expecting something else ngl 💀

[@inkmoe4817]

Like what?

[@doctorstrobe]

Hey Teo. Which camera do you use for the video parts?

[@teocrawford]

In this video maybe around 25% is shot with the Sony A7iii and 75% with the Iphone 11.

[@shuyiliu7517]

where does the glow come from my god.

[@CoreMR-fi5en]

Hi how are you? My name is Rafaela and I'm from Brazil. This is the first time I've seen a video of your channel, I thought it was incredibly sensitive! I love the mix of video and photos of the moments, watching your video gave me a sense of peace, I signed up and I will definitely recommend it to others. Your work is very special.

[@araswhisnupradana5756]

I was wondering what camera you used for the video, and would be great to get the answer. thank you, and yes, your work is very good and inspiring. Greet from Jakarta

[@timecan82]

The soundtrack is a Korean song

[@jordanredd2519]

Was excited till I heard the music lol some of its okay but it’s just too much for me😢 still love you and your videos though bro.

[@ericgoodwinart]

I’m just getting started with photography, and your work is very exciting and inspiring!

[@takumiarrr]

Throws me off how the content is Japan but the songs are in Korean 🫨🫨 amazing vibes tho

[@teocrawford]

Hahaha I knooow it's not optimal, but I mean I use English songs too.. it's just a mix :,D Sadly Epidemic Sound doesn't have much Japanese music yet, but their Korean library is pretty good and I've found many good pieces there :)

[@takumiarrr]

​@@teocrawford I see I see. 😆I enjoyed it regardless! Such a soothing/rich collection of clips. Sounds like we just gotta get more Japanese artists on Epidemic Sound tho 😤

[@natashagimenez9587]

How was the voiceover recorded to sound so clear in this video?

[@teocrawford]

I recently made a video called “How to make videos like a pro” in which I briefly go over the voice over process. Maybe that can help you☺️🙌🏼

[@brandycolmer7052]

Love this. It’s such a chill vibe. I grew up across Southern California, and there is so much similar in the landscape and streets. Of course, every so often there is something quintessentially Japanese, that will break the spell…but many times I’ll look up and the scene will remind me of home - even though I’ve never been there. 🙂

[@Valstick]

Love your content man. This is my fav video cuz I get to put it on the background for a long time and look at aesthetic pictures and videos.

Truly superb. I even hoped most of the time the clips had lasted 3x as long to better enjoy them.

Aww that’s amazing, love that! Thank you for your kind words🥹🫶🏼

[@kiss4luna]

it's very funny you guys shoot this in japan but the music is korean

[@teocrawford]

Yeah sadly Epidemic Sound didn't have any Japanese music, but I really enjoyed their selection of Korean music, because it hits the right feeling I was going for. Besides, I use English songs too... the language of music should not be of concern here haha

[@kiss4luna]

@@teocrawford yeah it's a pitty they don't have japanese songs. korean and japanese songs may sound similar but they have distinct differences once you get it :)

[@2ndBirth]

That was so chill.

[@TheRandomChinwe]

Teo I loooove your content. Haha I love how you clocked that I would put this on the background as I work. Keep it up, I'm a fan
