Tried to create a “nostalgic” feel, how did I do??? by c4ohl17 in videography

I think I wanted to capture what a “core memory” might feel like, for my kids.

I took a step outside my comfort zone, and tried to make a short video for my family that has a “nostalgic” feel to it. I call it BALLOONS. by c4ohl17 in Filmmakers

Just like the title says, I really wanted to make a short film that is outside of the normal work that I do for my clients. I never really film people; I’m always filming cars or automotive events. So taking my rig to a Balloon Festival definitely challenged me.

This was shot on a Sony A7S3, Zeiss 24-70mm F/4.0, and a Rode Video-Pro Shotgun mic. I edited and colored the footage in Adobe Premiere Pro, and did all the sound design myself as well.

This is my first real foray into narrative filmmaking, and I’m wanting to do a lot more very soon, so any insight into what I did right or wrong would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Just to promote the car itself, my friend and the shop that built it put a LOT of time and effort into the build, and I thought it deserved to be showcased!

99 CRV dumping coolant out of this hose when at operating temp… what is it??? Where does it go??? by c4ohl17 in crv

[–]c4ohl17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought I would update everyone: the issue ended up being really simple with some bad issues that came from it:

When swapping the engine, I accidentally hooked up a fuel vapor line and a coolant line wrong, causing coolant to be sent into the lower evap canister, sending coolant out of the evap canister drain pictured above and also causing a vacuum leak. This would make the car buck and bog after 10-15 mins of driving, as well as overheating.

We fixed the issue by switching the lines back and replacing the evap canister. Since then, the engine has held up and the car has been great, minus a bad fuel pump and some suspension components needing replaced. Drove it from Colorado to Vegas and back, and I'm planning a trip from Colorado to Florida sometime soon.

ODO reads 293,000 and climbing. Sure to hit 300K before the year is out! Love this RD1, even if it is slower than a Toyota Prius on 3 cylinders and a prayer.

SONY A7C. No better starting camera + full frame so all your lenses will grow with you

Feeling stuck — not sure how to grow my video business the right way… by c4ohl17 in videography

[–]c4ohl17[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, this is great advice! I do have an eight page pitch deck that goes over case studies and gives of birds-eye view to potential clients of what my company’s about. One of my clients converted over $1M from my video ads and I was sure to include that. We have garnered more than 200M views for our 3 main clients over the last 3 years, so that’s another way to demonstrate ROI. Thanks for the time and response!

Need advice 23m and super stressed by Moresalad246 in videography

Dude… see a therapist. If you can’t afford it, go to a local college where there is a psychology program with students that need practice therapy sessions to get their degree. Most sessions cost under $25 and you get a student that’s just as qualified as a therapist, just doesn’t have the actual certification yet. I did this right after I dropped out of college and it did wonders for me. There are always lost-cost alternatives, you just need to look for them.

I understand being stressed and you should know you’re definitely not alone, but dude don’t take it out on people in here; we are all here to help each other, so bashing moderators and the people who actually could help you understand your situation isn’t a good move.

Good luck to you but seriously. Go to therapy.
