Have to admit, this was a lot better and more helpful than I expected. And I really appreciate the lack of useless vlog-style fluff!

[donhendricks]

To be honest ... your tutorials have changed the way I think about and execute filmmaking. Solid, practical advice with real-world examples and not just a bunch of jibber-jabber. Thank you for so generously sharing your genius. I am inspired. And, the film showcased here - WOW!

[shaybeezink]

Color grading! The before and after was incredible would love to see how you guys color correct footage like this!

[pierrezapata]

Your videos are always so good and have really helped me get in a mindset for making film rather than just saying- get this gear or that to make this happen. I really appreciate that bit of motivation.

And you're always making youtube videos even while shooting such wonderful documentaries. So much devotion to filmmaking as well as helping all of us! Thank you so much

I use your backlighting tip every time I shoot now and it has drastically improved my documentary footage, thank you Mark!

[jacktree]

Mark, this was fantastic. Extremely clear and useful advice that was delivered so naturally, very easy to watch and take in. Beautiful vision, and even your talking head setup was warm and beautiful to look at, subbing off this 👏🏼.

Would also love to see BTS of the colour matching/ grading process!

Thank you Mark! Lately, more and more frequently the question 'what's the point?' pops up in my head... And then one of your videos comes along to remind me that it's not how someone will appreciate your work, but how you'll feel in the process of creating it. It's 5am, I will now grab my camera and head to the gym. It will be a 1 minute edit which I will enjoy shooting and editing and f***k what anyone thinks 😁💪🏼

As a photographer, I feel more inspiration on you than on many photographers out there. Not just for the tricks like the mist filter, also for the importance of the goals/purpose over the perfection. Living and feeling over just sharpness or 2500€ quality lens.

Ooooo, this is looking to be a gorgeous film, Mark. And those tracks used 🎶… Very excited! 🤙🏼

[Jadesfishing]

Love your channel Mark! thanks for putting in so much work to help bring us the skills we need to be better cinematographers.

[personallycatholic]

As always, very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing how you do what you do and why you do it. It is a blessing.

[BriannaRoseCinematography]

Lots of great advice! I liked how you pushed for us new filmmakers to not be afraid to add haze, add shake to your footage, to get creative but to also make sure it is intentional and planned in advance. When I first saw the flares I was like is he shooting an anamorphic lens...but then could tell it was a modifier which for a person like myself that hates horizontal flares in images I could see how this could come in handy for those very few moments that it would actually complement your story. Nice job on this and good luck on your documentary it looks awesome already :)

[makeamedia]

Wow this was awesome! Love the way you were articulating your tips. It made so much sense. Much appreciated bro.

[Mr_Kenneth]

Love those filters. Especially the warm anamorphic glow.

[SeanTolan_illuminated_imaging]

THIS is gold...thank you for sharing. I have an upcoming shoot for a Bed and Breakfast with rich history, and this helped get my mind thinking about more than just what camera I am using, or what the scripting will look like (All important, but visual story telling is so important as well)
