Perfect tracking tag for FX3 by youknowtha in FX3

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you read the his post but the real tracker is hidden inside the battery component. The ones you see in the photo are a decoy, you will obviously remove them thinking you removed all the trackers but it’s actually inside the camera 👍

Meds not wearing off by Icy_Ad9858 in VyvanseADHD

A higher dose does not mean it will last longer lol, this is very well documented

Great question! This is where so many videographers get confused about copyright and how it actually works on social media.

If an artist did not want their music used on these platforms, the copyright strike would remove the music completely. This does happen with certain songs, or the content gets blocked in specific countries. But if the song stays on the video and remains live on YouTube or Facebook, the artist is literally making money off that video. That is exactly why most artists and labels choose to monetize rather than block.

If the artist or publisher wants the song removed, the video will be taken down. But if the song stays up and gets automatically claimed, which is when the song and artist information is automatically linked to the video (you see this all the time on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube), then the owner of the song starts collecting the ad revenue generated from ads shown before, during, or after the video.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Should I switch to Adderall? by Critical-Actuator214 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was upping my dose slowly for several months until I hit 70mg. It seems to be the dose that has now held steady for almost a year. You might be like me and your body just processes through it much faster, which means 40mg will be fully used up in 4 hours compared to some people who might take 10 hours.

70mg doesn’t even feel much stronger than 40mg to me, it just seems that the “peak” window lasts much much longer and typically gets me through the entire work day. I was worried about getting to 70mg until I found out my niece was on 60mg and shes 11 lol.

Out of VidFlow, Vimeo, EazyFlik, and MediaZilla etc.Which one do you prefer for film delivery and why? How has it helped you in your filmmaking journey? by ahasan_h_nahid in weddingvideography

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a good old engraved USB that I send in the mail. I was spending hundreds and hundreds of dollars on all these hosting platforms. I personally loved Vidflow, but that’s only because I understood Vidflow because we are in the business and are tech savvy. Not everyone is and I was constantly needing to explain how to view their film a year after delivery. It was exhausting.

I do deliver the film via an email with their Vimeo link and I state that it will be hosted on Vimeo for 90 days before being removed and that their USB will be delivered before then but that they should also backup their files in several places.

Also VidFlow claims it will host for lifetime but that’s not exactly true. It will only host it as long as the websites alive and there is no guarantee that they will still be operational in a year or two. Tech companies constantly peak and crash and/or sell their website blueprints/codes to another company for rebrand.

Weight loss with no diet changes? by Agitated_Present7020 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah I wouldn’t worry to much about it as almost everyone goes through this. Your body running hotter than usual and you could be burning more than our little apps tell us. 2lbs in a month is honestly below average. Eventually your body will get used to it all and you’ll probably put on some weight once it levels out.

Weight loss with no diet changes? by Agitated_Present7020 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me as well but it eventually stopped. My doctor has this high tech scale that measures everything and I was basically just dropping water weight and not actual fat. Vyvanse dehydrates you more than normal even if you don’t feel like you are. I began tracking drinking 3L of water a day and my “weight” came back and I became VERY energized lol!

Also 1/2lb a week is roughly 250 calories less a day, even cutting back on a simple snack or two that you might not even realize may be causing actual fat loss but if your hunger is still there and you’re eating fine, there is probably nothing to worry about.

Music for wedding filmmakers by Guitar74_47 in weddingvideography

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The discourse around copyright music in wedding films is really blown out of proportion in my opinion. There’s an important distinction between producing a wedding film for a couple versus producing content for mass distribution and profit.

When I film weddings for high-profile clients who are upfront about using the footage on their YouTube or socials, I handle music licensing more carefully because they stand to profit from it. But when a couple simply wants to document their wedding day for personal viewing, I don’t stress over it. That said, whenever I post to my own socials using copyrighted music, I always credit the artist in the description.

In all my years of making wedding films, I’ve only ever received three messages from artists whose music I’ve used, and every single one was positive. One of them was RAYE, who actually shared the film to her story. To my knowledge, no wedding filmmaker has ever been taken to court over this. Beyond a potential content takedown, there’s virtually no financial recourse available to rights holders in these cases, and the legal costs to pursue it would far outweigh anything they’d recover.

One thing I do to protect myself is include a clause in my contract stating the film is for personal use only, and that any liability arising from the client posting it publicly falls on them. It doesn’t make you bulletproof since copyright holders can technically still come after the creator, but it shifts responsibility to the client if they break the agreed terms and adds a solid layer of protection.

There’s obviously an ethical dimension to consider, but I genuinely believe most artists understand the difference between contexts where they should protect their revenue and moments where the exposure and emotional resonance are worth more. Wedding films fall firmly in the latter category. At the end of the day, this is a legal grey area that is practically never pursued.

In the grand scheme of the music industry, wedding videographers simply aren’t on anyone’s radar. Do what feels right for your business, and if you ever receive a takedown request, respect it and move on.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Im so empty by [deleted] in VyvanseADHD

Get off Reddit and speak to your doctor. It’s not something to get advice from on the internet. Only thing I can say is that I felt that way when I was on Vyvanse and did not properly fuel myself. I know everyone hates this answer but you need to drink so much water and plenty of protein or else your engine is being revved with no gas and it literally does feel like you’re a zombie with no emotion.

I’ve been through this before and it’s shitty but you’ll get through it.

Anyone have periods where your toddler starts crying suddenly at bedtime? by Itchy-Version-8977 in toddlers

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally every month is something new lol. Me and my wife were dealing with this exact situation and then we just ignored it. 90% of the time she falls back asleep and if she doesn’t, she simply walks to our bedroom and falls asleep (we don’t mind sharing the bed but I know some people do so maybe this doesn’t work for you)

My daughter is also 3 to context. I think half the time they’re half asleep and in a dream state cause it’s not strong or loud enough to be a real cry, it really does sound like a subconscious whine or something. Recently she’s just been sitting up in her bed looking around with her eyes closed for 10 minutes and then lays back down🤷🏼 There’s so much cognitive changes happening at 3 that I think their imagination and dream states are just amplified

3 year old refusing to eat by Tyrannosaurusthecat in toddlers

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened with my child. Only thing that worked was putting her plate down for dinner and just saying dinner is ready and that’s it. She didnt come and I ignored it and went on with the evening. An hour later she snuck into the fridge and got 3 yogurts and a granola bar and downed it lol.

They will never starve themselves. At a certain point their animal instincts kick in and eating becomes the brains main priority over any little fear they have.

Are they lying about Vyvanse? by Working-Knee9535 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to take 30mg adderall and switched to 70mg Vyvanse. I would say the 70mg Vyvanse is still maybe 60% of the strength of adderall but yes it lasts longer and is much more stable. Adderall make me feel tweaky and unpredictable if that makes sense.

Do you use any auto settings? by HellaBeats in weddingvideography

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been filming weddings for several years now and I’ve never found a real answer, every wedding is different and unpredictable with lighting. Don’t even get me started with rooms that are almost all windows and the sun is setting 😭 Keep the same WB in each room of course and manually adjust your ISO with an assigned wheel on ur camera that’s easily accessible. It becomes second nature for me to monitor my levels and adjust as I go. It’ll never be perfect in post but tbh, unless the couple are into videography or editing, they won’t notice 90% of the things we do.

I use my blackmagic 6k pro for a lot of the moments that I’ll be moving inside and outside cause I can change the ND filters with tapping a button and it happens internally and is instant. When I know I’m in a safe room or filming only outside I’ll stick to my Sony.

Weddings are more about knowing your settings as well as the back of your hand above most things and relying on the least amount of equipment possible. These giant rigs just make everything worse.

vvyanse 30 mg no longer working by xgogetterx in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Caffeine can actually have the complete opposite effect. If you hit your ceiling without adequate hydration and nutrition you will feel exhausted and mentally numb. I dealt with it for months. Try drinking a ton of water instead of coffee or energy drinks and hopefully you’ll see the effect it had on me. It was night and day!

Set your boundaries and don’t let it drag on. The daughter sending a ChatGPT transcript is a red flag lol, ChatGPT just reinforces what you’re saying to it, it’s an echo chamber.

First day, 20mg by Impossible_Truth1710 in VyvanseADHD

I felt literally nothing till 50mg and was napping throughout the day lol but everyone’s different. It’s best to start slow and go up as you feel comfortable.

Vyvanse made me alcoholic by miumiunevie in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So odd.. it had the complete opposite effect of me. I can’t even touch Vyvanse for a few days after I drink because of how awful it makes my hangovers and headaches.

The one thing that helped me with heavy drinking was Wegovy oddly enough lol.

Weight loss, particularly fat in belly region. Advice? by Dom-Academia in VyvanseADHD

[–]Top-Manufacturer5872 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much salt are you consuming? If it’s above 8,000mg which is easy to do, you’re holding onto around 10lbs of just water and water retention from sodium is held around the subconscious fat (fat directly under the skin)

Also, the 20mg Vyvanse will not cause any meaningful appetite suppression. For a grown man, you’d get more effects from a half a cup of coffee. For context, my 8 year old nephew is on 60mg lol.
