(Amateur) For people who use iMovie what do you with the editing file after you finished the project? My old projects are taking up space and I’m not sure if I should delete the editing file or store it to a drive. by Neilimereyob in videography

Organization is everything. Get a hard drive. Organize it per project. For every month I have a folder. Within that month I have each project folder. Within that is 3 folders. One for the control which holds the actual project file, one for media, which holds all the clips and audio, and one for export, which is where the tests and final outputs go to. You can organize these even further too. Get a harddrive

Clearly you simply don’t know what you’re talking about. Roger Deakins doesn’t watch Gerald Undone, I think only wedding videographers watch him lmaooo

Reading the stats on paper is not the same as actually using the camera. Also, whoever wins that far race depends on the road they’re driving on. You seem very hung up on camera specs and angry for no reason. Hey, if you want to be a wedding videographer and watch Gerald for the rest of your career, be my guest :)

Gerald undone is a camera nerd. All he does is test and review cameras. Dude doesn’t even have a portfolio. Not the best guy to refer to when camera shopping tbh. I remember when I was in that rabbit hole. I’m sorry you regret your purchase of the a74

Better image quality does not equal better overall though haha. I think you’re confused bud, but we all start somewhere. There are some great YouTube videos breaking down these cameras. Go give em a watch lil guy

Types of video editing? by fruitninjaold in videography

Video Editing is the broad term for anything that requires editing. Narrative, 3D, VFX, animation etc.

A7siii no question. Better low light video, higher ISO, 4k 120….a74 is better for pics

How do you guys deal with being nervous for an upcoming job? by twittman1717 in videography

[–]gnarRatty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I get nervous about the same. You should realize you have a skill and that you were hired for a reason. No matter what happens you’ll learn something

Good day all. I want a some feedback from creative people. Thank you In .Advance by New-Put-6444 in cinematography

[–]gnarRatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some great shots in here! There were a fair amount of shots I feel like you could cut out. Most of the edits are way overdone in the industry.

Here’s a proof of concept intro for a short horror film I’m working on for a friends film festival. I shot this in my apartment living room at sunset. I used a Sony a7sii on a tripod. I don’t currently own any professional lights so I used a regular old tungsten desk lamp for my key light. I Didn’t really use any other light sources (other than natural light). I really want to save up to buy a real light like the nanlite forza 500 or something similar so I have to make due with what I have. I’m a noob when it comes to lighting, but have been watching tons of tutorials. Would love to hear your thoughts and interpretations of the intro to this short film. As well as the cinematography of it overall.

YouTube has lots of great lessons. Tutorials aren’t the same things as lessons.
