[@JesseSlykermanVideoProduction]

The GH4 footage looked amazing!!

[@NewLegendPictures]

Eastsiders was definitely my favorite! Loved the creativity of it and it felt like it matched its own music the best.

[@Andyax]

It’s crazy how they managed to pull that of in 48 hours. That’s dedication!

[@JesseSlykermanVideoProduction]

yeah theirs looked really nice

[@ParaLightWorX]

Love this concept and really enjoyed the way you edited it. Great as always!

[@KBTfilms]

While cliche and done before in a way, Eastsiders definitely wins. Creativity, music, editing, all 10/10

[@riojiang9377]

Jeez the GH4 holds up well...and of course it is because the cinematographer knows what he is doing lol. BTW all three videos are great! Each of them has their unique style and approach! I really can't say who did it better! They were all great!!!

[@normanwallace9658]

That was fun.... all was brilliant..

[@767_fht7]

Great idea with great execution! Congratulations!

[@omniworldwide-atlantavideo8857]

THAT WAS INCREDIBLE. EASTSIDERS FOR THE DUB!

[@amplifiedzamaniseries6288]

Second one good touch. My favorite Eastersiders good transition and story ❤🤝🤜🤜

[@CUBOLOGIX]

All teams did amazing job , but if i were to pick from where to buy , it'd be 2nd one for sure , it just gives the vibe and shows its trendy latest and new. 3 was really creative , but i felt that it was overly obsessing on the logo , and 1 was proper film vibe , but it was too slow for grabbing attention , i loved that they put the most thought in it for the story, but for someone not knowing the behind the scenes , i don't think it would resonate with people , the message that they really wanted to portray . Overall , everyone has their own strengths and they rocked at what they do the best , now its the client's ideology whose style do they actually like

[@titusnixon]

I'm impressed with all three. With the time and resources they all came out very nice. Congrats to everyone

[@photovisionproject]

Absolutely loved the content! Each film is incredibly well-produced, and they all have their unique strengths. Personally, Video Nr. 1 stands out for me 🏆🥇 - the cinematic look and feel are truly inspiring. While it may not be the strongest from a pure advertising perspective, its aesthetic qualities make it the most captivating. Thanks a lot! Looking forward to more content like this!

[@piusgyagenda]

I Can't Lie all the videos are great, And this is why I tell fellow creatives that we all have what to learn from one another and teach others just start up that KZbin channel and teach the world. Thank you Andyax for this video and all the videos you have shared this year, Merry Christmas to you reading this, and Happy New Year 2024

[@Joshs_Journey]

Loved all three videos! Each one had such unique and creative approache in it's own way. I really enjoy your content and that you let us follow your guys journey along over the last few years! Have a nice Christmas and happy new year. 😍

[@Philip_Franssen]

Loved the video and the challenge. All 3 video's are amazing, but one really stands out to me in terms of originality and that's the one from Eastsiders 😊. All you guys just rock and I love to watch your video's . Keep up this amazing creativity in 2024!

[@bernardthecreator]

Damn Eastsiders nailed it. You all did great though.

[@Xtechi]

I liked the East-siders video

[@emmanuelheri3457]

amazing content

[@hamdanhareb5655]

keep going

[@jzvitendo]

Eastesider Nailed It...

[@maingimutiso7816]

Likes for the Eastsiders 👍

[@damienrusseil]

Hi, so fun ;) For me the winner is team Eastsiders with no doubt ;)

[@benjamin.kelley]

I swear I love this company. Any company that shares their journey is one I'd trust.

[@vegardpedersen]

You guys are so creative! The first one was amazing. Impressive to see how good the GH4 still is. That goes to show that it is really the person behind the camera, that makes great pictures. Very nice lighting. THe second video, I love the style, and all the cool shots. My favorite part is the cut of the Green light, and the person imitating the green man. Their video was very cool as well. Creative use of pictures and video. I actually think the third one is my favorite, but all three were amazing in their own way. SO different solutions to the same problem.

[@Andyax]

Thanks Vegard! Good to see you again :)

[@vegardpedersen]

God jul, Anders 🙂@@Andyax

[@adamdrakestudio]

Yes! The traffic light match cut was my favourite too. The Eastsiders killed it though.

[@moritzschmid1]

Eastsiders is probably my favorite! But I also loved the music in the your video anders and kim! All are super cool!

[@kevinokai]

East sliders was definitely my favorite. Short, Precise and focused on the merch. Loved it!

[@z4yn165]

1. Had the best colors and gave me some music video vibes. It felt a bit mystical & mysterious. (Would be perfect for commercial before a movie in cinema) 2. Fresh vibes giving that extremly stylish and modern look mixed with a vintage vibe which reminds me of going out with friends on a relaxed day. 3. feels perfect for social media. Straight to the point without loosing the viewers attention! I think you can't compare these commecials, all teams did a awesome job and did completly different vibes and styles of filming and grading. But my personal favourite is Video 1. Love the cinematic look and feeling extremly inspired! Thanks for the video, grettings from Germany!

[@Andyax]

Thanks for your review! Exciting to see your thoughts on this!

[@anthonywood9808]

Love this video! My wife and I decided we are going to start using the word “Mishaeangeloo” instead of miscellaneous. Far more cool and elegant!

[@Andyax]

hehe ^^

[@kalexfilmmaker]

The 3rd is....waoh!!!! Awesome! All teams did great job! Bravo!

[@fremekwame]

This challenge was amazing. You guys made Diamonds with all that pressure of producing such topnotch work in 48hours. Everyone one of the outcomes could pass for work that took way longer to plan and produce. I love 1. Because it's not your typical fashion film, so depending the kind of client you have, it would be great. 2 and 3 and what you'd often expect or see for such work. Nonetheless, they're all incredibly well done!

[@hoogyoutube]

All really great. Eastsiders was the one that would make me buy.

[@matty_mash]

Always a good day when Andyax uploads

[@Andyax]

Aww

[@BadKarma714]

Merch monkeys all the way East siders lol more like downers 😂 poor guys in the snow the whole time.

[@anthonywood9808]

EASTSIDERS! Definitely the winner. All were good, but theirs was well paced, extremely eye-catching and just a hair too short, which left me wanting more.

[@ciinelog]

Eastsiders team is the best and creative one))

[@aleksrya3673]

My choice #3. Short and right on target. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Good luck in 2024.

[@swoosh1480]

This was extremely impressive and very entertaining. You all worked so hard. Your creative efforts don't go unnoticed. Great job guys! You were my original inspiration for buying the GH4 setup years ago. That was one of my favorite videos that inspired me to do videography years ago. I still go back and watch it sometimes.

[@The-Logician]

I've only gotten 4:00 into the video, and already I can tell, the other two teams fell right into the middle of Ander's trap. Given first choice they went straight to lighting, knowing the other teams would leave him the GH4..... because the GH4 is better.... now off to watch the rest of the video.

[@HanaGoku]

Although all three videos were equally good, the audience will most probably lean toward the EastSiders because they had to beat bigger challenges hence the audience will emphasize more with them :)

[@RevonnCadsawan]

Art By Accident (a trailer, a music video) it is really impressive outcome given shooting with GH4. But the concept did not fit for me, if the clothes are a formal design it should've won (I love it for a different type of use). I will take Merch Monkies as #1 for Fashion Video, different scenarios and places "You can wear it whatever the case maybe". BUT EastSiders breaks it up as the ADS king. Short and very catchy for social media. But all in all you guys did it well. Your production and team is something to look up to, to be inspired and keep on moving!

[@biniyamgetu9146]

From Ethiopia 🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹 Eastsiders is my favorite and i love there works wow wow❤❤❤ these is the best way to promote it's cool 😎

[@phantom357]

I think 3 was the best!

[@bard_alacray]

I really like the variety created around the merch in the 2nd video. I think that one showed the merch more, in diverse ways. In all, all 3 videos are so good! Well-done, VJUS, thank you for always keeping us inspired to create

[@MATATAOFFICIAL]

VJUS! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@m.i.andersen8167]

Video #2 (Merchmonkeys) was definitely the best. the style and look is right on the beat without trying to look like something it's not. Video #3 (Eastsiders) could have been good, but they probably should have had some more time to polish the video. Video #1 looked like a not-quite-successful discount version of a mainstream commercial. Have a good holiday 😊

[@akaultra-i8o]

change the thumbnail for viwes bro it does not work

[@_MANNATESTIMONIES]

1st Place: Merch Monkeys who executed the most "On Brief" work. 2nd Place: Eastsiders 3rd: Place: Anders Team

[@chance2480]

third one goes so incredibly hard holy moly

[@frequentwaves]

They were all excellent. Eastsiders get my vote though.

[@anthonysciortino]

Editing Tutorial?🙌🏼🔥

[@piart8207]

As someone who is also building a production team, I wanna have a team like this. Group of people who are super excited about what they do. LOVE YOU GUYSS and your content is always fun to watch.

[@neulandlotse]

If I think as the brand (customer) East sider did the most modern clip. And if the story behind the brand and logo is quite more important, than I would select the unbelievable GH4 results. But all 3 in 48 h is amazing.

[@alevir]

Definitely one of your best video! Strength and limitations wery well balanced for every crew! I love the vibe of the first, the color grading of the second and the creativity of the third! Stunning how 8 bit gh4 footage can compete against newer cameras! ❤ Wish you the best for 2024!

[@Andyax]

Thanks! Happy New Year!

[@Rogsterr]

Did anyone else respectfully not like any of them

[@TapasEdits]

I love the 2nd video.

[@DBOSSMOTIONSSTUDIO]

The third video commercial was amazing!!! thats my favorite of them all Nice work guys

[@shueibdahir]

The gh4 with an external recorder at 4k 10bit is unbeatable, ESPECIALLY with Emotive Color GHAlex LUT. Infact it will match the Arri Alexa Mini 1:1.

[@Ranger7Studios]

The third one wins. DE (East Siders Emoji) Happy Holidays kids!

[@carlculpepperimages]

Great challenge concept! All three were excellent in their own ways. However, I have to say, Eastsiders for the win!

[@scottievee7467]

I would have grabbed a second camera. You would have been competing against just one... other team. Eastsiders had a thing. Very creative.

[@Ranger7Studios]

Best way to deal with fire alarms when using smoke is wrap your alarms in Shower curtain or those elastic bowl covers and a lot of gaff tape.

[@miragegurung]

All the videos were awesome but the EAST SIDERS nailed it. Their video felt more complete and powerful. Happy filmmaking 📽📽📽

[@Peter-Dirks]

All the videos are great. But the video from "ART BY ACCIDENT" is my favorite!👍

[@jimhestermanphotography]

I've been following Andyax for SO MANY YEARS. Love to see the evolution of this channel and the careers that came from it. Also... EAST SIDERS RULED!

[@adityakaklij]

All the 4 videos are awesome(4th is the BTS). Although, I'm not the judge, It's just my personal understanding from the videos. 1. Musics 10/10 for all the videos. Too much perfect video. 2. Vid. by team 01, The concept and the shoot is mind-blowing. But i feel that the vector acts occupied too much. It should not be that long. (That eye shoot was one of the best at 22:19) 4. Vid. by team 02, The music choice is fabulous. I'm not expert at this video type, but personally I like videos where every one is smiling or in "Not in bad mood" :). But still it was perfect. 5. Vid. by team 03, The images are too good to be in each scene. You can add multiple dress in the photos, so it might look too good

[@mckinnonmedia4912]

I'm a US based DP but my family lives in Norway. If I moved to Norway, could I apply to join your team? I'm trained by US Film Union (IATSE) standards.

[@chrisnigul]

I watched all three on mute and then unmuted(in my weird way) 1. I wasn't sure what was being promoted, honestly. Not sure about the overlays. 2. very billboardy, modern, very 7th avenue. I liked it! 3. Social media ad vibes. Not sure how I feel about the edit. Felt repetitive but I still liked it. I'd give the Eastsiders an upper hand and second team following very very closely.

[@reddotmedia9888]

ALOHA from Hawaii. first of all I can't believe I'm complaining how cold is here right now, anyway. Eastsiders was the most creative and the only one that depicted the product and brand the most. Great work!

[@deepdreammedia6777]

All the way from South Africa i love guys and i think my winner is East Siders i love the pictures, different locations and all

[@madyarshasha]

Definetely Eastsiders 🎉😂❤ besr of luck to all competitors

[@chokeKM]

Great videos!I loved the guy with long hair as an actor from "Merch monkeys". Salvadore Ganacci vibes...

[@jonnham]

I feel the Eastsiders had the best concept. Even though I think they could have used different merch within the shots to really reflect the brand variety. Overall great video Everyone else did great too. I guess this video worked in planning on buying some merch now lol.

[@24Golden]

Eastsiders love from west Africa - Abidjan

[@thadgan]

Personally, I don't think the music and the concept was nailed in the first video. Also the narrative was a bit too long and I don't really understand it. Lighting and the shots looked amazing with haze. I would always think, where is the video going to be shown? Is it a 15 sec reel ad on youtube with the skip button? Tiktok ad? Insta ad? If so the pacing needs to be quick. Ad's need to be showcased quick and punchy. So I think 2nd video is good because of contrast, music and variety with the model as well. You reach a bigger demographic with your black model. But the length needs to be shorter. The 3rd video was good as well but would work better if you reframe it for portrait mode for vertical phone ads like tiktok and youtube shorts because the logo was stabilized front n center of frame which is important to deliver message in a short time. But tbh, this whole video was an ad for your merch and you made it engaging because you made your audience invested because you involved them throughout your process to get the average watch time up. Very well done.

[@arisgeorgiou100]

In my opinion only the 3rd video served the purpose. All three well executed, but we missed the product in the first two. Just my two cents...Excellent work guys!

[@morten.rustad]

Eastsiders crew whoop whoop!

[@RealLifewithAdrianRuth]

Eastsiders for the win. great job on all the creativity on these videos

[@ivanmartynov8499]

all 3 versions are great, for me the 3-rd so cool and I love this kind of effect with photos, the 1-st is so subtle :)

[@copperhands]

Eastsiders took this one. Creative approach beautifully shot, very smooth edit, on point! I hope you can make this a series, it was great to see everyone's take and the process to get there. 👏🎬

[@aygrynhaus]

Eastsiders‼️ I love how you guys improvised with photography to make a video, and the editing is next level. ❤❤❤

[@thebundok]

I think Eastsiders #1, Merch Monkeys #2, Art by Accident (unfortunately) #3. Great jobs all-around though! Especially in 48 hours!

[@L0rDLuCk]

I liked the eastsiders commercial the most! Very well done! But the Challenge as a whole was very entertaining :) Thanks a lot!!!

[@EmilioSamartin]

Another great video. All three commercials are great. If I have to pick one, my wife and I pick the 3rd, East siders.

[@rossomagic]

1st was the best cinematography wise, 2nd was the better music commercial, 3rd was the most creative video out of all.

[@stela_camera_girl]

All teams did a great job. I like all the commercials. 💖🎥

[@CineDailies]

east siders won hands down

[@boxoffisa]

“You could represent chaos..” 7:36. Man didn’t hesitate to bring out his villain side. 😅

[@iamzr81]

Checked your merch store and there is no size guide for the items. I reckon you are in Norway so the M size should be like EUR L, right?

[@armelind]

I know this is unrelated to your current video, but tonight I was referred by KZbin to watch one of Eskild's videos, "Film Look - 5 easy steps (with cheap DSLR)". I really appreciate that KZbin helps keep his memory alive. I know you would be happy about that too and that's why I am typing this. I appreciate your channel Andyax and I appreciate the work you did with Eskild and all your companions. It was and is very entertaining and educational. Thank you.

[@adamdrakestudio]

Eastsiders was fucking sick. The others were great too, loved the traffic light frame on the second and the cinematography and lighting of the first but the Eastsiders was just soooo good.

[@TomaszNowak90]

eastsiders my fav. short, simple, eyecatching. The other two videos were too long imo. I lost interest in few seconds.

[@collaborativekiwistudios1191]

Eastsiders was by far the best the concept was slick but captivating and wouldn't be a advert i would skip!!!

[@staffordharmond740]

Amaaazing. All three groups did great, If i had to pick a winner though i would say 3ast sides.

[@_meken_]

Damn. Why didn’t you comment on each other videos, and I expected your reactions on each other’s ads

[@jonathanmoine4198]

Discovered your chanel by seeing this video, really cool guys ! +1 for the the storytelling of Art by Accident 😁

[@varun5849]

Great video!!! All three videos were amazing but my personal favorite would be eastsiders

[@ellateshowconjosecinema]

guys Great work, Eastsiders my Favorite

[@clockwork2581]

GOOSEBUMPS ON Eastsiders! Defo my fave in all

[@Died1209]

Wow, so impressed with the GH4 quality! Love to see that it's still amazing in the right hands.

[@JesseSlykermanVideoProduction]

Amazing video guys. The commercial which looked the best was 'eastsiders'. The vibe was really nice, and the feel suited the merch. EASTSIDERS ALL THE WAY!!
