I wake up in the middle of the night, binge watch and take notes to these videos. When I look at my pictures and videos I’ve taken in the past and compare to these improvement principles I get so excited because I see exactly where i was being mr boring.

Then I start to think back to the situations I thought was exciting but when I captured it, it didn’t give the same feeling. I have thought experiments on how I could have used the scenarios to add more context and depth to pics/vids.

When I’m practicing your process les now and reviewing, the results often surprise me, “wow did I really shoot that”

You have massively influenced changing the beliefs on how I view making content, so thank you 🙏🏽

As a beginner, I have learned so much about gears and filmmaking because of your channel mainly because you explain everything in a way a beginner will easily understand. Keep up the great videos!

I'm trying to learn how to film with just my smartphone and my action camera. These tips on landscape filming are invaluable. Thank you so much.

I watch this all the time and I recomend everyone should watch it before you go film anything just to remember how it was broken down! Epic teaching! Epic!

[MelvinQuinones-vj]

Your videos and style are ideal for all beginners attempting to improve their skills

This video was unbelievably helpful!! It’s crazy how these transitions seem like they are so challenging but can easily be broken down. Also, your final video was spectacular!! Thank you so much Steve

WOW, as someone who is 100% completely new to doing any video at all, this is such an incredible thing to watch. I've learnt more in the 9 mins of watching this than I have in all the hours I've watched on You Tube so far. A HUGE thumbs up from me, , oh and yes, I pressed that Subscribed

Hi Steve, just want to say thanks for the great content! I've learned most of what I know about filming with my phone from your channel and it really helped one of my videos take off (sort of, 13K views after about 6 weeks). Your how to shoot videos, editing tips and gimbal reviews, etc. have all given me the tools to start my own channel. Thanks for everything!

Thank you for keeping it simple using only a smartphone, this is hard enough without all the Arri’s, Red’s, Resolves, LUTs, Rec709, rgb parades and what have you! Some of us have small kids and a lot of family and work commitments, we don’t need to be world class DPs, just want our family holiday videos be more presentable and “cinematic” :)

[KernowFay]

Thank you. It's taken quite a few searches and lots of videos that weren't on target but finally, this one popped up. Exactly what I was looking for and explains why my snow scenes look so static and jarring. Nearly all were human I just wanted a scene. And you couldn't ask for a better location.

[diablopocket]

Let me tell you, I saw a lot of videos about filming, and yours are the best and with simple explanations. Thank you so much for teaching me and others how to make our video memories look much better. I'm still learning, hope to see more from your channel. All the best.

[yoelroque]

Steve I like the way you use small clips & create amazing videos, thank you for teaching all this techniques

[explorer]

Absolutely the best video shooting advice out there 👏🏻👏🏻

[baricojam]
