Hello! Yes please help me!

[@freckle3773]

NO WAY MICHAEL SUPERBACKER

[@TheOfficialOriginalChad]

I am seeing you more and more…

[@JagdishBhatia-Voice]

Hey Daniel Just watched this green stick trick and you made it super easy to understand the execution. Just to let you know i am following all your videos since past 2 years and trust me you have inspired me to start product videos post my retirement from 9 to 5 Job. Your videos are motivating not just youngsters of your age but also a 50+ man like me as well 😊. Keep it up Dear!!!

[@ReneAllegre]

Hey man, I've been following you for a while and I love your content. I do vfx for a living so this is right up my alley. The technique that we use to clean a moving or handheld shot is still using a static cleanplate. But we track the moving shot and project the cleanplate on a cg layout of the scene to get the parallax. Or if the movement is not that complex, we 2d track the shot and apply the movement to the cleanplate. This is just to complement your video since your explanation was on point. Cheers

[@alex_lionspaw]

Thanks for the comment ! Always interesting when artists share 🙏🏼🇨🇿🫶🏼

[@aphotographerspodcast]

Good comment. Although I think I know what you mean, but can you elaborate "project the clean plate on a cg layout" a little more. Thanks!

[@21stcenturyscots]

I am thinking of doing VFX for a living. What kind of VFX do you do and how much money do you make each month? Sounds fun but I've got to feed the wife and kids. Thank you very much

[@rachid8111]

hope you never stop making these

[@nathanmuzerura894]

Compliments of the new season, Daniel. Thanks for these helpful tips

[@LJ_alltheway]

Your such an inspiration! Can't wait to try out those techniques!

[@fpvjordi]

Great tricks! Happy holidays to you too!

[@seecraig]

An important thing you do and should mention is using a green object to separate the product from the turntable. You can get green gaffer tape to cover objects like a stand or stick or whatever you want to chroma key out. If only FCP and/or Motion would add a form of content-aware fill for video.

[@francoismasuabi]

Thank you for this info man, good breakdown for someone that wants to try this out like me. Appreciate it

[@dbs_jd]

I always thought using a green screen was quite difficult, but it is way easier than I thought. Looking forward on creating some content with green screens/sticks soon. Great video as always!

[@njood2962]

I used to watch u before 1 year maybe Here i come again and glad that i found u again 👍🏻 Fully respect brother and good work 👏🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@speliotis]

Thank you Daniel.... Always inspired by your videos.. What motorized slider do you use? I dont see it listed on your equipment.. Thank you

[@Jambo1999]

I'm eager to see the Adobe Scene Change thing. Its been three months since announced and no updates! They are talking about compositing without chroma key and allowing moving cameras, and changing perspectives.

[@ThiagoMazzeo]

As always, great tutorial Daniel! Thanks for sharing man 😄

[@markylon]

Wasn't really a tutorial more LET ME SHOW YOU HOW GOOD I AM.

[@BiteSized_]

Thanks bud! Great explanation

[@chrisgoldenproductions]

Thanks for all the tips. I want to start experimenting with green screens more this year.

[@darkreigncometh]

Man you make it look so easy!

[@matoflynn]

Perfect visuals to explain this

[@kevinreyesphotography]

Pretty useful information, might give it a try

[@AustenPaul]

Thank you for this, I dislike green screens quite a bit and this helps a lot!!

[@EvgenyZyablikov]

Tips and tricks. My respects!

[@JohnOdunayo]

Your shirt. Love it

[@scofieldvisuals]

Haha thank you!! Now to put these tips to work💪🏻

[@A_Trader128]

You are very talented 😍

[@rajkumar-uo6us]

love you man and your content🥰

[@Salkin_LP]

Haha the blanket for the fake kitchen background 😂😂

[@IBOXEDU1610]

Can you please make a video on how to pick the product.

[@ivanko.brnjakovic]

You didn't even need a green stick for this method.

[@danielschiffer]

there are many ways to do things yes. this method with the green stick happens to be one of the easier ways.

[@shabbirshaik3188]

Hey Daniel, Are you going to make a video about that edelkrone standplus?

[@TRyanLearnBikes]

Legend ! Cheers to you good sir .

[@TracyFenner]

thank you HNY!!!

Hi Daniel! How do you keep focus on the bowl throughout the movement? Do you use AF? because sometimes the camera is microhunting and that would also effect the clean plate, right?

[@abdenbiabdenbi3558]

Very good video Daniel !! But please 🙏 help me for green screen transparency bottles like perfume ! I have a problem reflected green on bottle . Many practices and setup but I don’t know 🤷. 😢😢😢

[@alfredocuevas8758]

feliz año nuevo bro ...hi from Sinaloa Mexico

[@sitobasiessien-kv3xw]

Thank you. What about generative fill?

[@microhobbies1259]

Nice tricks. I'll try in my videos.

[@smasherxd6561]

Hey Daniel, I love your videos and want to also create such beautiful videos myself. I have an Sony Alpha 7 iii (8bit unfortunate and I can't effort to upgrade to expensive) I saw you also had one. I am stuck with what picture profile I should use or you used? Is it Slog2 with ITU709-Matrix and HLG3 for LowLight? I hope you see this. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Islamicadhkarart]

How to get started with product videography? Do you have any resources? Or a full playlist? Can you make a video on how to get started? :)

[@theascensionaesthetic]

I like that you threw the (maybe) in there. "How dare you sir!" 😂

[@Kuriosityx]

Even your subject it's so simple, you can clarely see a green cast over the border.

[@Kinetica_tm]

i just came to leave a comment and say that cant wait for the next video.

[@bopapaiproduction]

Thanks Bro

[@fattybuttsbbq]

This might sound silly but how did you remove the black after keying out the stick? Just wondering if masking would’ve ended up with the same result if you have to mask out the black anyway? Awesome stuff either way. Had no clue how to green screen. Haha

[@sibusisokevin]

Can you attempt to shoot a simple product on an iPhone & edit it on an iPad ?

[@umevisuals8263]

Bro always prioritizes teaching people stuff. You have shapped a generation of creators brother.

[@animateddoodleads9001]

What software are you using, is this Davinci Resolve?, Love your work as always.

[@anonuser2640]

Hey man I’m new in Canada I would like to know out of curiosity in which province you are

[@vojtechdurkovicphotography2583]

Hi which is your most used lens for product comercial videos, many thanks :)

[@andrewh2341]

How did you remove your hand from the shot?

[@Justin-uc8sc]

Daniel, will this technique work in Southern Alberta?

[@zk4929]

Can all this be done with Davinci Resolve too?

[@JAKANEWS]

Muito obrigado! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@k.udalykh]

Hello, what program do you use to edit the video?

[@somasoren2396]

From where I can get the wall backdrop ?

[@itsPhillipStaples]

Hey Daniel what slider do you use?

[@user-nb4st4fy7d]

I am a 13 year old student from India I am exploring video editing from 3 years I am interested in it but I can't think of ideas to make any videos can you make a video on how to think of an idea and bring it to life

[@SpongeBob-xh8ir]

Without gear noting he tell is useful 😂

[@sergioandresmarquezfuentes44]

[@BryanLankston]

Can’t believe I made it this early!!!

[@DirtyCuttinScoundrel]

This is crazy was going to make a Girl Scout video for my daughter and was in my brain thinking of using green screen and this video pops up!!!! Creepy

[@mr.critic]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ruangan.fahmi_]

[@AmarreMoha]

3rd?

[@marcusthompson666]

Biggest mistake of beginners is 99% of the time the green is WAAAY overexposed. It needs to be only 50 ire. Dark green. Middle line on the the WFM. Camera sensors will desaturate the green past that point degrading your color information and you also will slather the entire scene with needless green spill. 50 IRE or the middle of your Waveform. You're welcome.

[@jm1jonas]

#AddCameraMovementInPost

[@RelatableWisdom]

i feel like you overcomplicated this, maybe this is how it works in the final cut, but in Premier or AE when you apply the key effect you are left with transparency no need for a plate, the only thing you need is to mask the hand.

[@codylander]

Still trying to crack the code on your audio EQ! Any tips? I notice you and Gakuyen sound very similar… 🫣
