I’ve watched this video 3-4 times, and this is the first time I heard your kid yelling “Dad!” Glad to see I’m not alone in that 😂

[@amusingking]

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, there's definitely a lot of retakes to not get the kids coming out lol

Bro, focus peaking would make your job even easier.

[@amusingking]

Haha, yeah, I do have that set up now.

[@TheCollectorZero]

BRUH!! I didn't know you were on "The You Tube!" Nice vid!

[@amusingking]

Lol! Yes sir! Was trying to get some momentum before blasting it elsewhere 😅 and catch up with wedding stuff :p

[@dezmy]

Do u think this tutorial could be helpful for stop motions with action figures

[@amusingking]

Yeah! For sure. I’ve only tried a little stop motion. But for the most part, you want the best lighting and to be in focus. So these tips can definitely help

[@the_mudscuffer8665]

Is the black series or a Sh figuarts boba? Thank you for the video.

[@amusingking]

SHFiguarts! His front skirt is removable. And he does look way better. Thanks for watching 🙌🏼

[@buzzsawgr81]

my problem has been since I'm using my phone camera the instructions are so vague about any of the settings and what anything means and what it does.

[@amusingking]

How do you mean? Like I should go more into theory of lighting and do more phone camera stuff?

[@buzzsawgr81]

@@amusingking it's less an issue with you tutorial guys and more an issue with not knowing what my phone can do due to the actual booklet that comes with the phone not explaining how the camera works. but yeah, more tutorials for phone camera users would be great.

[@amusingking]

@@buzzsawgr81 cool, I can definitely do a phone photography vid. I do know if you’re using basic camera app on phone, most of it is automatic settings. So even more so, the lighting and set up just becomes more important. I have more videos over lighting and posing than camera settings.
