Long one, lots of good info tho! Enjoy

[@crinja6]

Dope bruh! Kind of disappointed that we haven't got to work together so far after all these years but I'm definitely planning to make that happen. Proud of both you and #CRyan. Keep producing this awesome content! 👏🏾👏🏾

[@Nickanomics]

This was one of the best videos I seen in a while

[@emmanuelbvuma892]

You’re legendary bro

[@yuvraj_sarabha]

Brother can you tell me what's the name of that green screen effect!😁 And can i do something like that on phone using kinemaster?

[@john-lenin]

Yeah - but all you need is girls with big butts - which is the title of my new album.

[@thurdysixo]

This is the type of content that made me subscribe years ago

[@YCImaging]

That's dope!

[@theroyalmob]

I just want to say thank you for taking the time to make this video. This is the kind of content I’m always looking for!

[@emauf]

I love CANVA. Graphics design on my smartphone is made much simpler when am far from a pc.

[@CreativeRyan]

Canva is going to put me out of business!! 🥺😂

[@ainanirina758]

Canva killin designer for real 😂 #Designerlivesmatter

[@YCImaging]

Lmao the templates are dope

[@Tommy-km4wo]

@@ainanirina758 I would still hire a graphic designer because I don't have time for even Canva, plus I would want something unique.

[@Sweetpeay]

I have to force myself not to use it😩

[@ProdbyCeeSick]

Yo if you made it I already know it’s of the highest quality. 💯🤷‍♂️. I know what type of craft mastering time u on. 💪✌️

[@darlingtontriceptikon1834]

You know your stuff bro! thumbs Up!

Thank you soooo much man!This is exactly the type of content we need.Good looking out!

[@YCImaging]

You got it!

[@west-wun]

Thank you so much for the knowledge and inspiration. Love how humble you are. What app do you use to "journal" or take notes? That checklist was crucial.

[@awlux2131]

you killed this bro

[@Eliteguitarschool]

Thanks for sharing!

[@theofficialvontae]

Awesome work man! Keep doing ya thing! Great editing and overall video.

[@WHITEPERSUAS1ON]

🔥🔥🔥

[@feinschnittvideografie8624]

Thank you very much

[@braiton9564]

Love this, getting into video this is a huge help. What video editing software is this? I’ve used Vegas since I was a kid. Kind of looks like it but not exactly.

[@vallejopnw]

My man.

[@ENVZNMediaworks]

Whats up bro?! I was skimming through the comments and forgive me if I overlooked it but what notes/organizing app were you using?

[@ENVZNMediaworks]

I found it! For anyone else who’s looking, it’s “Evernote”.

[@paq613]

What was that first program you were using? The one that had your shotlist

[@joco.333]

what program are you using for the check list?

[@clintcompose]

Nice

[@TheVeriteHouse]

Is this pre-production note downloadable? or do you have a template for it?

[@YCImaging]

It's just something I create every shoot, you can make it simple in evernote or apple notes.

[@TheVeriteHouse]

@@YCImaging Thank you I’m a check out Evernote this was really dope though I’m glad you did this!

[@OnMyTrek]

Great video, learned a lot. No where on that level just starting out learning editing etc. Gained a sub 👏🏾. By the way, do you have the link to those glasses on amazon?

[@VizwayMedia]

I just wanna know who disliked this? This is PURE QUALITY INFORMATION‼️🐐

[@HibaMediaGroup]

I agree with you 💯 👍 👌

@@HibaMediaGroup and it's free! Although i would not mind paying for info like this from YC.

[@29dj17]

they're called haters and trolls

[@BigAntVideo]

Some people just exist to hate. The best power over them is to ignore them :)

[@ladiffaerence2491]

Haters

MY BROTHER YC🔥SALUTE CHAMP KEEP IT UP THE CULTURE NEEDS YOU💯

[@25mrkeys]

AMAZING WORK!!!!!🔥🔥 We need more people like you in the world ✊🏽 A lot of other individuals wouldn't share this type of information so they could keep all their "secrets". Much respect to you my brother 💯💯💯💯

[@TylerCaseyProd]

Real goat for going through the whole production process!

Lol it really crashed on me....thats real, thanks for this

[@ayedhatyaygo983]

I’m officially making you my mentor, big homie. Thanks for taking the time out to do this. Much love!!

[@BobbyGiggz]

Fam, Love the content. Good work. I went and watched the video clip with JWillz. It's Nice. Just saying though. I recommend pacing the story a bit better. Within 45secs, we've seen all 5 set-pieces which is way too much. Now I know the clip is 1.45min but I still think you could pace the story a little better. Don't give it all away too soon. Cheers mate.

[@Antoniadwyer]

what did he edit the music video on? thanks :)

[@safelpeterkin951]

Fist time using green screen wow!!!

[@Jwillzva]

Went above & beyond for this Thank you bro! Came out hard AF! #IfYouKnowYouKnow OUT NOW!

[@jaimelamusiquegospel4645]

I take my to time to watch how the rapper spend time and make sacrifices to do that video just for the world to get fun but getting not back I come to tell your Jesus love your anything we do if we not do it for is glory we going to hell Jesus coming soon be repent

[@jballoproduction3993]

love the fact you share a process that helps. thanks.. just wanted to know what was that program or what was it you use to do that video preparation.

[@HibaMediaGroup]

Bro, That's dope how you prepare your shot list and everything around it!! Much respect 🙌 🙏 I salute you from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@rawwworldwide6125]

fire i got hella new stuff to try now

[@kenlawrence6716]

Damn! I didn't know Canva could do this with videos!? I've been using them for Music CD Single Album Covers 🔥🎶 for the longest!!! Butt Whoa mane! I'm going to check those Canva templates out too! Appreciate it!🙋💯

[@YCImaging]

Yeah they're fire!

[@kenlawrence6716]

@@YCImaging Plus those Digital Sunglasses on the model dancing is DOPE too bro! 💪💯 May need to reach out to you for my music videos.

[@caslualves]

Good information here ... Dope

[@cutseencinematics]

Hey YC, is there a reason the footage looks way better here than it does on his upload? like the same shots that are perfect and crisp here seem to have all this strange colour banding/noise etc on his upload...

[@YCImaging]

KZbin took a while to process it, it's 4k now tho!

[@brittanijackson2968]

This shouldn't be free

[@gabsxo5714]

This video is just fantastic! It brings new ideas for those who want to shoot clips, and also for editing, and for shooting in general! Not a lot of people would share their tips, advices and shooting techniques just like that and for free! That is so cool thanks a lot! It is really worth watching! Really glad I’m subscribed to your channel, keep it up!!!👍

[@Whoiswhitemayne]

@YCImaging Could you drop the website of where you got the fabrics from?

[@BlessedVisuals]

Where to find green screen background replacements? Or they just photos?

[@crprovideone]

This is awesome BTS content! Thanks for making it. What was the program you were using for pre-prod? Love that organization.

[@BoatAfloat]

Thanks for sharing the behind the scenes...was thinking, you may have overcharged those glasses if you charged them all night long.

[@ElliotWhitehead]

Somebody get this man some larger scissors 😂

Lmaooooo

The homie!

[@CarterCreativeContent]

Superb video!!!..........how much did the whole thing cost??

Great video man... I was wondering how you color correct the video?

Been lookin at your vids for the past couple days and coming to this one.... I've seen this vid 1st and didnt pay attention to the name.... I had that OH SHIT, I BEEN WATCHIN, moment

[@andilenonkwelo6616]

Love ur channel man. I just got a canon 250d and canon m6 mark 2. I'm a beginner. Iv been making hip hop music for more than 10 years. I'm in South Africa and I wana move into music videos

[@ochenjonah]

This is really amazing I followed it all grabbed some great tone of ideas

[@VickiDavisDesigns]

What are you using for your notes etc?

[@YCImaging]

I'm using evernote, but apple notes works just fine

[@Lamiere]

The video is amazing ! And the song i think you brought the multiple heads shot in too early, it took away the shock value especially starting it before the verse started. Other than that the concept is dope

[@emperorscotty]

i dont like MVs that look rushed, and this is coming from a person who number 1 life hobby is gaming and watching MVs.

[@jonathandavis8503]

Dope. Subed after 2nd vid I watched on your channel. This video by far helps me out jump start my new business and need for videography help. 👍💪

[@AaronMcFadden]

Where did you purchase the glasses from? They are so cool.

[@ItsShawnCarlo]

This video dope

[@ruralcooking9442]

It's amazing

[@EHendricksFilms]

This is so dope and VERY informative bro!

[@Smooth1productions]

To be honest it's very tough because people don't wanna work with me they just want the blueprint how to information? Then use someone else after you paved the way with jewels of starting up a project for them

[@xkavatafqf7550]

Had just subcribe today brother to your channel thanks for this great ideas God blessed you and keep adding us more 👏

[@D75KH]

Great video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Did you film in RAW or in 8Bit?

[@GamersPlayerUnion]

I hate it when Im subscribed to someone channel like YClmaging and all of sudden I notice that I'm no longer subscribed with no fault of my own. Just saying youtube! smh

[@farajakamundala7977]

I stared learn about videography that was in 2019 and the same year I watched one your video and inspired me a lot till today I keep saying you don't disappoint bro...

[@vino_music]

Is it rude to ask how much you charged for the music video? Cuz i wanna know :)

[@fremworks]

It’s fire bro same the clone effect same as the one in burna boys video Dope bro

[@mrworldwide666]

You could have done this video in 10 min max bro, I am sorry but this is boring and time consuming. Overall, good job!

[@alejandrojaen2305]

YC what is that app you are using for the notes? It says YCImaging Notebook. It looks very useful.

[@KenKaniffFromConnecticut]

Hey man, what’s your typical charge for a 3-4 minute music video? 📼

[@lew.parker]

Hey Chrystopher, what sort of budgets do you typically work on for music videos?

[@clydeme]

Hey, How do you sync video on FCPX? what is the workflow.

[@pydepiperproductionsllcjon7585]

That seems like an awful lot of work, what would you charge for a video like that? Here is my issue, most would not pay for half of the work you put into that. Its gotta be the love not the money.

[@amarionmatthews829]

What website/app is it you're using for you checklisting and notes?

[@salaamhiggins4557]

Man I wish I lived near you to turn from your personally. Intern or something lol You're amazing
