YouTuber's Cameraman | A Day In The Life

[@bettyrowe1981]

Wow! Who knew;sorry Billy for not appreciating all you have to do to produce your videos for us. Thanks Alex for enlightening us.

[@whatgoesaroundcomesaround920]

I remember when Billy dropped back to once a week for a while. He couldn't get anything else accomplished -- work at the convent, then work on the video. Alex has made life much better for Billy -- Gwendolyn is not perpetually ready to murder him.

[@jacquielawrence5670]

No wonder Billy finds it time consuming , when you're not around

[@paulaspencer2660]

After watching this video, I have so much respect for the time and work that goes into them! Thank you all for keeping us so informed and entertained!

[@valeriemcclain9001]

Leila is so well-behaved! What a great companion. After watching this and realizing how much time and talent it takes to produce this program, the next person that complains that you are a little late in releasing the video will get a collective virtual smack upside the head!!!

[@ccoeurjoli]

😂 true !

[@mayvisschwab744]

Being a Cameraman is definitely hard work. And lots of responsibility.

[@tomwillis1264]

Really great behind-the-scenes video. I am an avid watcher of the Convent videos. This is a very well-put-together and entertaining video. The amount of work that the cameraman has to perform shows your professionalism.

[@sallyjohnson3381]

👋👍❤️

[@fineweaver]

Well put as it was exactly what I wanted to say.

[@patwilkes4122]

Great video Alex and it filled in lots of details about the convent and access to the different parts of the building. Some nice comments about Billy as a boss . Really enjoyable video, Thankyou.

[@user-fx2pb2do5z]

Hi Alex great to see all the work behind the scenes. Very professionally done shows your skills. No wonder Billy was pleased to have your back. 😊

[@joanneemerick5785]

Alex- what a delightful professional you are!! Can we please have an interview with you? And maybe Simon??

[@reinetvanjaarsveld459]

Brilliant idea!

[@user-kq9zv4hu4p]

Nice to see the other side Alex ❤ thank you 🎉🎉

[@annieoconnor9778]

Alex, I’m exhausted watching you running around, brilliant vlog 🇬🇧🙏🏻

[@ccoeurjoli]

😂 me too !

[@TLMarzewski]

Me three! 😊

[@arnaudlambert4957]

I had no idea he did so much running 😂

[@michellewilliamson449]

Wow! Didn't realize that your job is almost like being the director of a film set! Very time consuming, all of it but it's wonderful.

[@terrymurray5253]

Wow! The cameraman needs also to be a choreographer😮

[@richardneidich]

Thanks for seeing you are more than the cameraman, that is, writer, director, sound engineer and more. I hope Billy gives reference to this video and thanks to him for caring how the efforts are presented. Do another, even though its two shows in one day.

[@peterturnbull9133]

Very insightful…. A lot of work. No wonder Billy is pleased to have you back to help him. Looking forward to to the next video.

[@sillel2208]

💜 lov it

[@jurriaandejongh8677]

You're a machine Alex. Billy and co are lucky to have ya. :)

[@beaniecat1980]

Thanks for the behind the scenes. A lot of work goes into it. You have so many cameras, microphones and other things to not lose and keep safe. I did love the backwards Yanis cam!😂 We laughed so hard and rewatched it.

[@Geeguess]

OH MY STARS ! You are certainly getting your exercise much more work than holding the camera and doing a little editing. Thank you for sharing I definitely will think of the camera crew differently.

[@claudiayamada8377]

Wow!! That was very interesting! It was fun to see behind the scenes. It definitely shows how hard you work to get the perfect shots. Brilliant! I can see why Billy is so happy to have you there.

[@nicolinavincelli9369]

Alex, I did not realize how much work went to videoing. I have a great appreciation now of what you do, thank you. Big hugs to such an adorable dog, she's special.

[@JC-sl4hk]

What a SUPER video. We had no idea of the amount of time and effort that goes into making these videos. Gosh you have to be fit to position yourself in the correct place for shooting the different scenes …. Running up and down stairs, clambering up on to the roof of a truck, hanging out of windows to name a few all to capture the best shots possible to create the superb videos that you do. The drone shots are amazing the morning light gives the convent a mystical look. Billie is a perfectionist so it is evident why he wants you to be his video man. Keep up the good work and thanks for allowing us to have a peek into the life of Alex and Lela💕. Stay safe and well. Judy🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@paulawynne6420]

You certainly have to stay one step ahead of everything/everyone!

[@user-sd8eq6xm1s]

And now I know. Many things to say: all the tech stuff was over my pea “tech” brain, the edited video is entertaining however this video made me feel like I was an apprentice with you today, I needed a break after watching it. Your work is beyond measure. Your star is shining bright.

[@kerriegood1046]

Your videos have been a fun time. Especially to see the behind the scenes of videos we have bee watching for years. Like your new twists with the Yanas cam etc.....

[@peterturnbull9133]

Very insightful…. A lot of work that you don’t appreciate. No wonder Billy is pleased to have you back to help him. Looking forward to to the next video.

[@GoldenLady9779]

This was really cool! It showed us so much of all the steps (and those literally) you do just to get out each video. I know Billy is always so glad when you're there and now I have a better idea of all the work involved. Thanks, Alex, you're amazing. 💕👍

[@martinelateste4558]

Nice, those little peeks behind 'the video'. More "au naturel", relaxed and funny! More of this, if possible.

[@kapkone]

So nice to be able to take your dog to work, that's a big plus 🐶➕❤️ It really shows how much additional work it is to film the process

[@marcusvictor1559]

MORE!

[@wendystephens1681]

Thank you for sharing the daily behind the scenes at the convent. Really enjoying your videos!

[@mavep2855]

Wow! A busy day, thanks for the behind the scenes tour Alex. 🇨🇦🙏❤️

[@bowiearcangeli11]

Alex, this was fascinating! I often wonder how you get certain shots, and after watching this, now I know. You put a lot of time and effort into everything you do and I have the utmost respect for you and your work. Thank you for sharing 💜

[@janeblandford852]

Thank you for the "what it is like to be a cameraman" for Billy experience. All very interesting and you certainly work hard. Great job Alex and thank you!! I see why Billy needs you. You certainly add a lot to the story!! Cheers!!

[@joannestupak4749]

I had a lot of respect for your work before, but after watching this video, I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing you are. This was a learning experience, and you along with the team make it feel like we are there with you. Thanks so much for sharing this. You are awesome. 😊

[@anne-beritmyrli7461]

So much work for a shorts video. I am impressed. And you always seem so happy . Love your dog. Shes so cute ❤

[@Hannah-pk6iq]

Blimey Alex, I hope Billy is paying you well for all your hard work.

[@taniadevilliers348]

Wonderful to see how the magic is captured, magically! Thank you, Alex.

[@cathycartier484]

I really enjoyed your video Alex , and found it very interesting . Layla is the perfect companion for you and I'm sure she is well loved by everyone at the chateau and convent as well , My gosh , you certainly get lots of exercise in a day with all the stairs you tackle in the course of your preperation and filming . You are very professional in your work and a perfect fit with the Pethericks and the crew . It's no wonder Billy always misses you when you take a holiday . With you working for Billy he is able to ' crack on ' . Thank you Alex for this lovely , '' Day In The Life '' . Be well , be safe , and continue to prosper .

[@kathyeggert1983]

camera.. not exactly the cell phones these guys all started with!!!

[@susandellet7121]

Fascinating

[@mariadange06]

That's a lot of setting up and finding various angles, all very professional... well done Alex 👍🏻

[@marysell6184]

WOW! Awesome video, Alex! You did a great job in helping us understand the time and effort that goes in to the Petherick videos. It seems to me that filming, editing, uploading and then reviewing comments, is a full-time job. You have a true talent for making what you do seem easy & effortless on our side of the camera. Well done!

[@fletcher2311]

I'm amazed at how little the filming slows things down - been a long time watcher and thought there would have been quite a bit more spent setting up shots. An older camera guy would struggle to keep up! Nice job.

[@sheilacasper2030]

Wow wow wow. I had no idea of the work involved. Alex you are so good at what you do. I feel sorry for billy when you arent here and he has to do it by himself.

[@helenatremblay4019]

I am 73 yrs. old and in awe of your expertise re: electronics etc. Trying to stay current but😵‍💫. Thanks for taking us along!❤

[@sniderspider7034]

oh, my gawd..... all them steps!!!! Dear little Layla... she's such a cool member of the crew, I love it that she's included. This was a very clever idea today, I always wonder as I'm watching, how'd they do that? or where's the camera now? I'm so glad you're a vlogger now too!

[@betty9614]

We really enjoyed watching this video, Alex. Please do make more. It's so much fun seeing things from your perspective.

[@john-aaronbaumann7464]

Thank you, Alex! I really enjoyed that and definitely want to see more behind the scenes. I also enjoyed the Yanis interview on Billy's channel and would like to see more of those, starting with Billy! thank you.

[@elizabethnash7491]

Really nice to see a day from your perspective Alex. Anytime you do another video I’m there 🩵🐾

[@babzblu]

Alex....like Simon, you are a master of your craft. Respect.👏👏👏

[@TruLdy]

Alex You are doing great dear. billy is so lucky to have you dear.

[@jbart5260]

Wow! Thanks for this "Day in the life" vlog. You are a busy man!!!

[@sylviaslavinarps1021]

Love these behind the scenes videos, keep them coming please. You’re very good at your job

[@user-ki4sx9zp4s]

Hi Alex. Enjoying your videos. Love Layla. She is a lovely dog.

[@marytaylor9185]

Thanks for a glimpse of Alex's day of filming at the convent. A totally full day (not counting the shower, cups of tea, and lunch) and the end result is a 28-30 minute video. Not so easy to run back and forth to capture great shots. The angles are fantastic! I really appreciate the drone shots. Overhead shots of the convent, and the neighbourhood are beautiful! Thanks Alex!

[@andy1-]

Excellent behind the scenes, well done

[@seonapatrick5502]

What a great reminder that these videos look effortless when you watch them but how much work actually goes into making them everyday. Keep up the great work

[@CharlenePink-Dufresne]

Really enjoyed your behind-the-scenes. Fantastic job Alex! I know Billy enjoys when you are there to help with getting all the footage. I like the longer videos when you are there.😊

[@RobertForslund]

Awesome content! It's always nice to get the behind the scenes! 😛It's easy to think all you have to do is to point a camera, but it's so much more to camera work than that! 😁👍

[@Giordino]

Thanks for the day on the life/behind the scenes video. Very interesting to see the whole proces that goes into making a video, it's so easy to forget how much work there is to it for making one. Keep up the good work Alex really enjoying it!

[@Rain-Peters]

Very interesting Alex. Thanks for the inside peek.

[@susanhill3147]

I didn’t realise there’s so much to a cameraman day. Alex it’s very intense, how do you manage all that running around in one day ??👏👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

[@Grandma_NC]

That's a lot of work for a video. Those steps...... I don't envy you running up and down those all day. Loved the video.

[@pj1043]

Alex you do amazing job. It’s very interesting seeing what goes on behind the scenes at the convent with Billy & his merry men.😊 Layla is a beautiful sweet dog ❤. Very glad to see hard working Yanis wearing a Aussie Cap.🇦🇺🧢 & his English is getting better everyday.♥️♥️

[@pamkullman8839]

Exhausting! I would forget to put something critical on charge. Thanks for sharing! I also like that it seems like you are talking more on the videos with Billy

[@gordonroxanne1294]

Such a great job Alex!!!! Great seeing all the work that goes into making each episode of The Pethricks.

[@stephd9698]

Very interesting! Much more work than I imagined…

[@sushirules]

You certainly do get in your steps while filmning! Awesome stuff...

[@MrRobfeds]

Alex, when Billy is wearing shorts, do you have to white balance the camera first!😊 I really should add that I’m a great fan of Billy’s work, and all of the Pethericks and associated folks!

[@AlextheCameraman.]

😂😂😂

[@vickimiller1876]

This was fascinating! Thank you for the look behind the scenes and allowing us to seriously respect the process.

[@user-fc2hb3de2w]

Up and down so many stairs, you get your cardio for sure! Great video, I have even learned a thing or two.

[@joebrooks3436]

Enjoyed that video, beautiful country there. Lots of stairs everywhere 😊 The drone brings out the best of the countryside and town views as well. You have some very nice equipment to work with for sure. You make it look so easy. Really enjoyed working with you today, you should do more. Thank you Alex.

[@jamesallison4875]

Alex, you are a real soldier. Thank goodness you have Layla with you. I am astounded by your energy and discipline. The energy of youth I suppose. Thanks!

[@tinaskreativbox5135]

This was really interesting. Thank you for sharing it. I already thought it would be time consuming but you put so much effort into this. Amazing!

[@lynnhurst7365]

Hi Alex I didn't realize how hard your job really was. Lala is adorable ❤. I'm just a little older lady in 🇺🇸 that enjoys the content, it's very interesting. Keep up the good work

[@jacquelynhollinger4006]

This was very informative. Your editing makes each video seamless. Thank you for all of your hard work.

[@nj91055]

Love this inside peak. You make it look so easy...like magic. You wear so many hats putting these videos out. Love the little quick directions you give to Yanis & Dad before filming. Yes, to more of this type of filming. Is it possible that you give us a look of what's around the convent? The drone is fantastic with the beautiful countryside scenes. Thank you for sharing your process (and Layla) with us!

[@mistywolf312]

This is more of a letter than a comment , so here goes Dear Alex, looking over what do, your on your feet both physically and mentally the whole time, side eye open, looking for what the viewer will find interesting. Your awareness of light and atmosphere are amazing, so young but so professional. It screams this is my passion, what I want to do with my life because despite being "on" all the time your having fun as well, I hope this continues and you get to do many many projects with much different content that I am sure you are aiming for. (we would miss you but with your talent you deserve to be documenting a larger world than a KZbin channel, no offence to Billy) You seem to have the knack of making people relax in front of the camera which is no mean feat, and making sure your subject doesn't miss a factoid, which with Billy is minor miracle as he skitters from subject to subject. All in all were lucky to be watching your work. Oh and Layla is adorable !

[@lisarobertson7011]

loved this - behind the scenes video. really interesting and you are on the move constantly! so much fun.

[@jaxfor3]

What a beautiful spot to edit videos.

[@lhmcd5538]

Absolutely fascinating Alex. My goodness you do rush around. I thought you might but not how much to get a great shot. You make it look so effortless but obviously it’s not. Please give your beauty Lela hugs and kisses from me. I adore her. Thank you. I did really enjoy it and I’m looking forward to the next one. May you all please take care and stay safe. Louisa. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩

[@gregmeredith3509]

I cannot believe your energy! Consumate professional and very admirable. Brillant

[@carlaaijtink2586]

Awsome to see how things work behind the scènes, loved it!!❤

[@debbiehalliwell7797]

Really interesting to see just how much work goes into making the videos. No wonder Billy likes having you to film. It frees him up to get on with the renovation. Great job Alex, thanks for sharing👍👏👏

[@carolyn279]

Great to see the filming from your perspective. And I love seeing Yannis’s personality come through. He is funny while working hard!

[@meravlotem4993]

I love watching your videos!! This one was really special..

[@dr62220]

As a novice I have spent a lot on equipment, I can appreciate the expense, time and effort you have put into your craft. Would love to venture into what you are doing. Thanks for the information about your equipment. Its not cheep You have some of the best.

[@suemount6042]

Yanis cam perfect they are such a great team. It’s great to actually get to see what your part in it all is and how you work thanks Alex and Layla of course

[@waisanchan5850]

I am impressed by how organised you are. Thank you for this enlightening video. I am sure many of us do not know how videos and editing are done. I did not realised how much walking, running and climbing of stairs a camera man needs to do. You are on your feet all the time when you film. Love seeing Layla in your video and the Petherick’s too. 😊

[@roywills5387]

Alex I especially love the drone shots! I bet Leyla loves hanging with you and looking forward to the next new "dog park" you take her. No wonder she sleeps so good , trying to keep up with you is exhausting.

[@pamabernathy8728]

Hi, Alex!! Just started watching, might have to watch 1/2, then 1/2 after lunch with my friend out of town. SO happy you are showing us behind the scenes of your great work!!

[@bridgetvansciver3620]

You are wonderful cinematographer. You think of th best angles for lighting. Your wedding videos at the Convent will be epic if Billy decides to use it for weddings. I did love the up close Yanis Cam. Thanks Yanis for being a good sport. I did really enjoy the video. Thanks and you deserve a raise.

[@brensearsjohnston4411]

Very interesting, Alex! Thanks for describing your methods. You put in a full day making the videos. I’m also enjoying your interviewing style this summer. The Yanis interview was great, but I also enjoy hearing Mick explain about his garden, and the information prompts you give Billy. I’m glad to see Simon back and hope you get him to do a sit-down interview too. And also Rick. Great job!

[@margaretring3120]

Excellent and amazing how much work goes into filming. It’s deffinately a creation passion, spotting angles and mixing it up with audio and music. The star of this show is deffinately your gorgeous fur baby. She is precious. I’m a huge animal and nature lover. Thank you for sharing, Respect. Have a great evening. 👌😊

[@catherinesloan4955]

WOW! I just don;t know what else to say, the work you put into getting one vlog up. Yes, would love to see more. Thank you.

[@annettesharrock1236]

You work very hard to show the vlogs for the Pethericks Alex. Very interesting such a lot you do to get the vlogs out. Loved watching Alex😘

[@user-kq9zv4hu4p]

Was good to see x Definitely do more Alex 🎉

[@jennyk544]

I love the drone work inserts in the Petherick videos! This look at behind the scenes was really interesting. Thank you for sharing.

[@tlmiam1]

Oh, and the renovation of that convent is very interesting to me, for some reason.

[@maryjohnson9506]

Hi Alex. That was amazing. There really is a lot of work that goes into making these videos. We are impressed that all bloggers continue with filming. You are very very good at what you do. You are very talented. Layla is such a sweet gril and a great traveling companion. Billy is very lucky to have you around to help and film for him. Thank you for sharing how all this works. We look forward to more of these videos. Thank you for sharing

[@kuyanilakota6571]

I was always wondering how anything can get done, project wise, when you have to set up cameras, check sound, edit, and publish a video. After watching this amazing video, I'm in awe of those who do it all on their own. Watching you being everywhere for just the right shot without stopping the project is exhausting. And to keep track of where all your equipment is and that is on the right settings,beyond belief. I wish i had 1/8 of your energy and talent. Great video!
