The 7 Levels of Creative Camera Angles

1. Welcome to the Class: Good creative shot can immediately tell the audience that your video is a high quality one. An unexpected angle can surprise the viewer, making the audience intrigued, fixating their eyes to the screen. And, hey, I'm Eddie. I've been doing creative videos for years. Through hundreds of videos, I got to evolve my creative camera angles, ditching the ones that didn't work, and keeping the techniques that worked really well. This course condenses everything into an easy to follow step by step method onto how to get your shots looking like this. And this box, you might ask, it actually contains the first level of five for you to progress more creatively in a short amount of time. If you are creative, all you need is a camera. You don't need all this fancy equipment. I started off with level one. But it is crucial to learn what the other gear does and to know what's worth investing in. Also, throughout the course, I will suggest cheap alternative methods to the shots with the proper equipment that I use myself for a very long time. No level is better than the other. I use them all personally. It just goes from more basic to very creative, very niche. And at the end, you can submit a photo or video as a project demonstrating any technique that you'll learn throughout this course. And there you can also ask any other questions for me, myself to give you feedback or from any other students as well. With that said, let's see what's inside this box for level number one. See you then. 2. Level 1: Surroundings: H, it's actually nothing. What I actually meant by that is to use your surroundings. This might sound basic, but trust me, there's a lot of untapped potential that you might not see. This technique is very useful outside because with the other gear I have, I don't really use it indoors in a more controlled environment. Because I might not expect to actually shoot something, but I want to get creative sometimes. I see a good moment, a good shot, and I have to get creative. I use my surroundings like chairs, tables, or garbage cans. And here is step by step to actually do this. Simply place the camera on the desired place, check for composition, brightness, or focus. Press record, run to the place you need. Do the action, run back to the camera and stop recording. One big advantage of this technique is that using anything else just creates a lot of attention. This is why sometimes you just got to use the camera itself. It's this way. Let's just take a look at some examples using level number one that wouldn't be possible otherwise. And fun fact, I was actually born and raised in Portugal. So a lot of shots will be there, and this one's in Lisbon. In this case, I have this beautiful setting. The weather's perfect. I have a symmetric shot and an electric. However, I was really just strolling around, and I only had my camera, but no tripod because you don't want to break this in the city all the time. And it was very casual. I was just looking around. So in this case, I knew a handheld shot where I'm just holding the camera as steady as possible wasn't going to cut it because your hands are just not perfect. It will jitter. It will tremble. If you see handheld footage, you just know it's not from a tripod or a static point. You know it's handheld. Unless you use a lot of slow motion, but in this case, I didn't want to because the shot of the electric going down. I want it at a normal speed, so slow motion is not an option. This case, there was a safety railing. And what I did was pose the camera, see the composition was right, zoomed in out, see if the exposure is correct and press record. And the shot looked beautiful. And when the electric was gone, I actually used my phone to position my camera and angle it a little more up like this, and I could get a different kind of shot. More zoomed in, zoomed out. I just tried to get as many different shots that would look beautiful. Of course, other equipment would work. But in that place is very busy, and there's a lot of people going by. So in this case, level one is the best choice. Another option here was in the airport, and I wanted to film myself looking at the screens. So all I did was pose the camera on the floor. I used my phone again to really angle it up. I made sure. I manual focus to the screens, and the movement, and the timing was perfect. I was just centered just right, and the shot came out beautiful. And the next example is at the beach. I was with friends, so it was a casual environment. I wasn't planning on shooting anything. I just brought my camera. So all I did was to actually put the camera on a garbage can that has the perfect height for us. And as you can see, it turned out really good. It looks like as if I used the tripod, which I really didn't. It's not every time I bring the tripod as it is pretty cumbersome. It's a pretty big object to lug around every time. So sometimes you just have the camera, and you have to get creative. And sometimes I'm actually filling myself in a supermarket, so I want to close my camera on different places. And in this case, it was from the baby seat. I just angled the camera up and strolled around. It's a very simple, but very creative, a unique angle that people don't really expect to see when shooting with a shopping cart. Now, it is your turn. Next time you're outside and you don't bring the tripod or anything else, you only have the camera Just know that good shots are always possible. You always have to think where you can safely put the camera on and what angles you can do. Don't forget. Maybe you always have the phone. At least me, I always have the phone so I can angle the camera up or down at several different angles. That helps a lot. You can have beautiful shots more often than you think. If you do this exercise a lot and you see what environment you have, the time, where you can place the camera, you'll truly understand that you don't need all that gear that you think you need. So practice and guck. 3. Level 2: Tripod: Level two is the single most important piece of gear. I recommend anyone to have, and it is the tripod. Tripod because it has three legs, and you can put it basically anywhere. You can adjust the height up or down, high, low. You can put it basically almost anywhere. Instead of being limited to a few points where your camera can be positioned, the tripod allows your camera to be truly almost anywhere. You can be in a place where there is absolutely nothing to put your camera on unless it's on the floor and your tripod can help you get that height that you want, or the perfect composition that you want anytime, any place. Now, if you already shot around, you might have experience with the tripod, but there's a few things to consider to actually and truly unlock the potential that this piece of gear has. Have you tried to position really far away, like at the beach? In this case, I put the camera on the tripod angle it correctly, and I ran to the point just walking and doing my action. Be aware I could only do this because it was 5:00 A.M. In the morning, and there was absolutely no one. In your case, maybe you can ask a friend or someone you trust to look out for the camera while you run away and do the shot. But sometimes that's just not always possible. And you see, I was truly alone because after I did the action, I started running back because I wanted to save memory and not let the camera roll too much. Or have you tried really close? The tripod truly allows for you to get any angle, any composition you really want and show any kind of detail with a close up shot. The tripod is a tool that can do almost anything. The trick to unlock its potential is to actually think about where you can and how you position it. Usually, the harder the shot, the more creative it will be. Since us viewers are so used to this medium angle like this, like right now what you're seeing. Putting your tripod in the other positions, maybe really tall, really low, really far away, or really close, really changes things up. Of course, those shots shouldn't be the only ones, but having a few here there really mixes things up and makes the viewer go like, Wow, this is different. This is actually really creative. And using all of these different positions, you really catch the viewer off guard with this very unique angle and keep the attention going within your video. So let me give you some examples of some really creative shots. Maybe you can inspire from these or take note, some ideas. Let's take a look. So in this case, I was filming myself, studying, or doing something on the computer, and I wanted a very different shot. Of course, I could put the tripod inside the room, but that would be too easy. For a really creative shot, I decided to actually think outside the box. In this case, outside the house. To give a feeling of depth, I decided to put the tripod actually outside, pointing the camera inside the window. This is it. I think it looks great because the window creates a natural frame around me. Or for the feeling of the video, it actually gives also a slight sense of loneliness because the subject, me, is very actually far away. It occupies not a lot of the screen, and you have a lot of negative space, the space that surrounded. Not only that, but it also gives information of the surroundings, the time of day, where I am. It is just a really creative shot. Doing the extra work of actually going outside, putting the tripod, click record, going inside, and do the action. This is what really sets apart from a mediocre shot to a really creative shot. And in this example, I wanted to film myself, driving the car, arriving into the beach. So what happened was there was literally nowhere my camera could go, unless if it's on the floor. But the shots on the floor have a different feeling, and I just wanted a normal hide shot where it would only be possible if the camera would be on the tripod. So in this case, I went to a more secluded road, slightly more away from the beach. And I set up the tripod in the middle of the road and I ran. I drove the car into the middle of the screen. It actually took a few shots to actually get it right. Yeah, that was it. This shot gives continuity to what the previous shots were. It also again gives this feeling of where am I? This wide shot gives a lot of information. Again, going the extra mile just for that nice shot, it really gives that creative feeling when you actually see it. These do take work, but it is always worth it. This next example, instead of doing this normal height, I decided to set the tripod extra height. So many people actually don't know this, but if you want to go extra high, you open all the legs all the way up, and many people set the tripod like this with all three legs like so. What you want to do to get that extra height, you go everything on the max, the legs and this middle part all the way up, and instead of setting the tripod like this, you can set the tripod like so. What you're doing is you're making it slightly higher, but you're trading off a little the stability. So be careful. It's a little more unstable, but you do get that nice height that you wouldn't get otherwise if you'd set up the tripod normally. So, from some shots, I really like to chain things up and use a really high angle with the tripod. It's a really unexpected use of the tripod, but that's what makes it created because not many people do it. I hope with these examples I got to broaden your horizons. Yes, the tripod is the most basic tool and the most versatile tool. Everyone has it. But how you use it makes a difference in the world to how your shot looks. Now, it is your turn. If you don't have a tripod, I seriously recommend you to get one, even a cheap one. Those work perfectly fine for video. And if you do have one, I recommend you think maybe a little outside the box, or what kind of shots are you used to do? And do the opposite. So if you're used to doing these type of shots, maybe a little higher or a little lower. If you're used to this distance may be a little closer or a little further away. The extra work you're putting into your shots really show up at the end, and it's always worth it. And when the shot is so beautiful, it's just pieces of eye candy, that's what I like to call and makes the viewer engaged and more attentive to your content. Never underestimate the power of the tripod. Good luck. 4. Be Careful About This: This lesson will be about the mistakes to avoid. Please don't make them. My lens just fell, and it broke. I'm really mad because look at this. The tripod is the single most use piece of gear, especially outside. If I'm filming something, I'm not leaving without it. But there's a few things to avoid. I wasn't mad about the lens being broken. I was fortunately the kit lens. At chip lens, you can find second hand for less than 100 euros. I was mad because I woke up at 5:00 A.M. I came to the beach before sunrise, and the moment I started filming, I guess the wind knocked it over. All of the planning and the work for nothing. New land was ordered and back on track. This time, avoiding these simple things. The first thing to note is your surroundings. Where you place the tripod differs a lot from the type of ground you use. Softer grass is a little safer in case of any accident, but a little more unstable, compared to solid rocks where it doesn't wobble, but in any case of accident, yeah, it's pretty bad. Filming on sand is something different. Just be careful that the sand might get stuck between the grooves, but apart from that, you're fine. The second thing to note is to always extend the legs first. Always the legs first. If you extend the legs, it provides a wider base. The wider the base, the more stable it is and less likely it is to tip over. However, if you instead are extending the vertical middle part, you are raising the center of mass, which only adds to more instability and shakiness. Some tripods even have a hook where you can put the backpack at the bottom for more weight and lowering the center of mass, making the whole thing more stable. Light tripods like this one are good for travel, good for hiking, but they are more unstable. The third thing, and this is what I didn't take into consideration is where it might tip over. When I was at the beach, I placed the tripod pretty randomly, and I didn't think about the leg positioning. I placed the camera, of course, in the middle, and the two legs parallel to each other, like so. Problem is the tripod is pretty light and the wind was blowing pretty hard into the wrong direction, which made it tip over. So the next time at the beach, I made sure to be correct. So the level the level isn't as high. I only use one level instead of two, so it's more stable. And this time, I put the third leg here in front, so it doesn't tip over forward like this. If it tips, it has to tip this way, which is easier. And I used the bag as a pillow for some sort of protection for the camera. This time, I think it's safe. But still, don't be afraid of filming. Your camera is safest at home, but it is not what your camera is made for. For your next outing, keep these tips in mind, and everything will be fine. Best of luck. 5. Level 3: C-stand: The main limitation with a tripod is that you cannot just film a nice overhead shot like this with this piece of gear. So with this, you cannot just film directly upwards to downwards, with the tripod. Now, I know it's not very common for people to own s stands. They usually a little bulkier, a little heavier. They occupy a lot of space, a little more hard to set up. But that's completely okay because knowing what it can do, the potential it has not only unlocks your brain into more kinds of shots, but it also might help you in the future to know if you want to invest or not. This was a piece of gear that I thought about it for a month if I should buy or not because I used a lot of overhead shots to show a lot of things. And I can tell you when I actually bought it, it was totally worth it. So a C stand is basically like a very big tripod. The biggest difference is here at the bottom where you have three different legs. In this case, it has wheels, but most C stans don't actually have wheels. And the big difference, you can adjust the rot any height or angle you want, just like so. This is not only for cameras, but it can also attach lights, or if you use the rod like this, you can attach a curtain to diffuse the lights, some like that. In this case, I use for a overhead shot where the camera is pointing directly down. So if I were to have the table here, it would be perfectly level 90 degrees towards the table. And with this, I can really go high. Really goes way high. It touches the ceiling eve and I cannot. That was just one level, by the way. And just compared to the tripod, you cannot lean it that much. To have such a vertical angle. It's just not possible with the tripod. So if you have the table, you can of course, have a static shot, a static shot, is a shot that the camera doesn't move, but you can also incorporate some movement to it. So if I unlock this lever, it unlocks this sideways movement, just like so. And if you do it slowly enough, you can do shots like this. With the C stand, you can unlock so many other potential shots. You're working at the table and you go pick up something else, you rotate it. Or if your C stand has wheels, you can slightly move like so translated in space. Now, it is your turn. If you do have one, maybe trying a shot like this from time to time, just don't overuse it. The C stand will provide a very unique angle that not many people are able to do it. And that's why it would look so creative. And I know SE San isn't very common. If you made it this far, I really recommend you to think if it's worth it or not. In the next lesson, I will give you a cheaper alternative to an overhead shot, but this comes with some limitations. With that said, good luck. 6. Level 3.1: Unlock the Full Potential of Your Tripod: So in the previous lesson, we went through the C stand, what it can do, what's the height, what type of shots or movements it can do. But I know not everyone has one. So I dedicated this lesson to a cheaper alternative. I personally didn't have a C stand for many years because of this cheap method. That's why in this lesson, I want you to use the cheaper method, a piece of gear that almost everyone has, which is the tripod. With this, you can have an overhead shot. I will also cover how I obtain this shot. Which is a nice lighting one by just using the tripod. For a top shot, you could use the C stand where the camera is pointing directly down, but the cheaper method is to actually use the tripod. You unlock all the legs to make it at as extended as possible. You open it up. We want to lean the tripod slightly like so. This is how I'd be optimal. In order to do this, we need to decrease the length of the front two legs. With these front two legs slightly decreased, the tripod naturally already inclines forward. You extend the middle part, and then if you put the camera here, and you rotate it like so. You can already see a top down shot. Of course, this is only possible if the tripod is leaning into something. Otherwise, it doesn't really work. If you're doing other types of shots that are top down, this is not very flexible. This is only good for a limited space. It's very limited, not very flexible, but for many years, I've used the strick to get a overhead shot. Without having to really buy a stand. To get a shot looking like this, you actually need to change the angle to look at the floor. To make this work, we need an object that slides around easily on the floor. In this case, it's just a sweater. You can also use a carpet upside down so that the part that slides in ice is facing the floor. All we need to do is to put on the floor like so, make sure all the three legs are connected, and all of a sudden, you can slide it easily like so. It's so simple. It's that obvious. And if I'm rolling something, if I'm putting an object, let's use this camera. I would literally just use the same movement like so. And of course, this uses a lot of tries because it isn't perfect, your hand isn't perfect, like so compared to a slider. But this works on the spot. I usually have to do a few tries to make it track directly with my hand or a rolling motion. But if you try and try, there's just going to be one time out of so many that's going to fit perfectly and roll exactly like the object, and it's going to look great. With a simple sweater in this case. Now, it is your turn. If you do have a tripod, I really suggest you're practicing a little with the camera. Be careful with the angles and the balancing. Not too much forward, so it one tip forward, and not too much back. It really doesn't look like an overhead shot. Really find the balance. And about that sliding shot, isn't that cool? It is a lot of extra work just for a few milliseconds of footage. But those few milliseconds of footage is what really makes a difference to your video. So consider if you want to incorporate one in your next project. Good luck. 7. Level 4: Action Cameras (Not for action): There are certain occasions where it is physically impossible to really get the shot with a normal sized camera. Sometimes you're in public and you can't really have big cameras to make people uncomfortable. Sometimes you're outside, and most importantly, sometimes when you're capturing with a normal sized camera, it captures a lot of attentions from other people. You see people looking at the lens, and that's actually not good if you want to capture genuine moments. Like going through the security of the metro in Beijing, camera. Or when I was giving away photos with this printable camera, I wanted to really film their honest and genuine reactions without me filming like this and making people uncomfortable. Oh, yeah. This is cool. Thank you. I just do this for f. I wanted to make something seamless, just a normal interaction, without making too much fluff, without actually having a big camera pointed at them like this. So this was actually only possible with a small camera, a small action camera. The metro was insanely packed in Beijing at that peak hour, and I would really find it uncomfortable both for me and the other people. I I went around filming like this in public. It would just get too much attention and the reaction of people looking at the camera is not something I want. So I want the genuine emotion. I want the actual real deal. Yeah. Yeah. Good job. In this case, this was only possible with a small action camera. This one specifically can even separate itself to make it even smaller, and it's magnetic, so I can put it on my chest like this. This is how I was able to get these POV shots without people really noticing the camera itself and getting the genuine reaction I actually wanted. Because it has magnets, it can stick around any magnetic surface I want. So for example, this overhead shot where I just stick the camera on the metallic part of the freezer, and it also allows for a POV shots like this if you attach it to your chest. Which makes it the perfect camera to film POV shots, like, for example, here in this sunflower field, where handling two cameras would have been too much. Oh, Kind of looks cool, but kind of weird. And also, in other situations, more in public, where I want to foster these genuine reactions, where I give the photo to the people and see them genuinely positively surprised. But the biggest downsides with these action cameras is because they're so small, they're physically limited. They have amazing technology, but their sensor size is just small. It's comparable to a foam. So the quality isn't the best compared to a normal sized camera. You can definitely tell the quality between these two, but if most of the video you use the nice quality camera and you sprinkle a few very creative shots for here and there, people won't even notice. Actually, the most important aspect of your video has to be the story. So first, if your story is engaging, you're doing it right, this will only help to aid the video to make it more creative, sprinkle a few shots that you would never see otherwise with a normal camera. So a mix of these two is actually the best idea. Now, it is your turn. I hope I got to broaden your horizons to what action cameras can do. Most people think they're just used for action, but you can use this for many other things due to their small size, you can attach it to many different places. Many shots just wouldn't be possible without this. So if you have one, maybe decide to incorporate them a few shots here or there. I would say, don't overuse it because the quality is not the best. But if you use it correctly, most of the shots with this normal sized camera, and a few very creative shots with the smaller camera, then you got yourself a nice mix of different perspectives, and just overall make the video that much nicer. A few sprinkles of this makes a huge difference. So good luck. 8. Level 5: Magic (Literally): For the last level, I saved it up for the piece of gear that allowed me to have the most impressive shots without almost no downsides. For example, you don't have the loss of quality from the previous lesson with the action cameras, and it's not that bulky like a C stand or even a tripod. The piece of gear I have is actually this thing. Let me show you the type of shots you can produce. Drive down for him with the windows down. Feel like we were on this town. S on the radio. The one you always like the one that always gets you sighting Drinking on a cheap one A. That a stupid by the fe This thing is actually called the Magic arm. And how it works is actually you attach the camera on one end like so. And on the other side. What makes this so special is the hook, because you can attach this to practically anything. And once you're happy with the shot, you lock everything by rotating the middle part, and it stays fixed to whatever angle you want. So let's take a look at a few examples. In this first one, I use the hook to attach it to the metal bar of the car seats. Oh, close it right here. Make it tight as well. And with this, you can see you have all the freedom you want. You can rotate any angle like this, you can point it down, you can point it forward, you can point it up. But in this case, I wanted to point exactly like so directly to me as I'm driving. And once you're happy with the position, all you need to do is rotate this middle knob, make it really tight. And as you see, it stays in position. And it allowed me to have a very stable shot like this. If I were to use the tripod, it would probably be unbalanced, and with the movements of the car, the tripod would probably tip over. But having this attached to the car itself, it became actually really stable. And the shots came out incredible. For the shopping segment, I used the magic arm again, but for more creative shots. I attached it to the bottom side of the shopping cart, and it allowed me to film the wheel in a very creative way. And in the photo, you can see you can basically attach it to anything. Compared to a tripod, this thing is huge, and it attracts a lot of attention. Compared to a setup like this, it's very much so the opposite. People don't even notice it, depending on where you put it. If you remove the hook, which you can do, you can attach two cameras, one on each side, and this allowed me to get this very creative POV shot where one of the cameras is here and the other camera that actually filming is on the other side. I hold the camera and it almost tracks the camera, making it for a really creative shot. Another use for the hook is to actually just hook it to other objects as well. For example, a pan, like so, or you can also use a fork or any other kinds of objects as well. The uses of this arm are almost endless, and the creative shots you get are incredible. This is truly a piece of gear that's really cheap, and it allows you to expend so much of the type of shots you could actually have. And actually, some other days, I don't even use the tripod. I bring this instead of the big tripod that I have, because this is that much smaller. Now, it is your turn. Isn't this awesome? The type of shots you can actually have are almost endless and very creative. If you don't have one, I strongly recommend you to buy one. As it broadens so much of the potential cinematic shots you could have. And if you have it, I hope these examples inspired you to try new things. Try new type of shots for your next project. With that said, Good luck. 9. Level 6: Let's add some motion: Now, you might be wondering, Eddie, why is there a sixth level? Wasn't it just supposed to be five? And to that, I say, Yeah, you're definitely right. When I originally scripted this class, I included five levels. But as I'm continuously learning more, I'm adding extra levels that provide value to you. One example actually was the tripod that fell, and I thought simple mistakes could be taught and avoid in the future, not only for me but to anyone taking this course, as well. Well, today, I'm going to introduce you to something I always thought about investing, but never did until now. And well, it was worth every bit of money it cost. You've seen how different angles can completely change the feel of your shots. But what happens when you add motion? This is where sliders come in a game changer for taking your creativity to the next level. So the first thing we can already notice is I can adjust completely the speed. Right now is at the slowest speed, and you can see it's slightly just going left really slowly. And the snob, if I rotate it, it goes faster, faster, faster until the max speed like so. Like this, the camera can use side shots for panning. But if you just rotate it like so, you can use for shots that you're panning just forwards. With all motorized sliders, you can also adjust from which point you start and which point you finish. It doesn't need to go all the way from the beginning to the end. Motorized sliders also have the capability not only doing this in the horizontal plane, but if you tip over vertically, it also works, which makes for a nice upward spanning shot. Something really neat also this motorized slider has is that you have the ability to adjust the tilt. So, for example, like so. And instead of just sliding left to right, it will, in this case, also rotate like so. You'll see. You see how it rotates the plane like this? If you adjust the speed, really slow, the advantages, it goes really slow but very uniformly. And what you can do is you can do time lapses around this activity around this area while this thing moves really slow, like, so making a tracking motion, which becomes a really good shot at the end. If I stop and adjust the opposite way, you'll see instead of doing the inwards, it will point outwards like a panorama. This is really good for landscapes. So as you can see, this motorized slider, you can use it for so many different occasions. And this one specifically is really to use and you don't need to use an app, which is a plus for me. And especially if you're always filming at the same place, which I am right now in this room, the slider is a fantastic tool to diversify your shot options. All of a sudden, with this, you can do cool transitions or you can do really neat time lapses of anything you're doing. With that said, now it is your turn. If you're willing to get your shots to the next level, consider trying the slider. I hope you got to learn everything that a motorized slider can do and how such a simple motion can make your shot look from just being static to something more dynamic and a little that much more interesting. Remember, motion can elevate even the simplest of angles. Good luck and keep creating. 10. Level 7: The Power of Fog: This is a tool that is often overlooked. It's simple and easy to use. You can take your shots from looking bland to cinema levels. When we're outside and it's a foggy day, we can see how fog adds depth. But with the machine, you unlock the potential of your shot indoors to look that much better. So, you see, this is the living room. There's some sun from the window, and there's no fog whatsoever. So I'm going to use the fog machine and see what will happen. And to disperse a little the fog, it's quite dense. I'm just going to wave my arms around and see what happens. Turn down the exposure a bit. The difference you can see immediately. I mean, dispersing a little more. And the before and after is shocking. Just by having a fog machine, all of a sudden the scene looks way worse cinematics. This is called Tindle effect. I know because I have a degree in physics, but that's irrelevant. Just like how you see the beams of lights of the cars when it's foggy at night, the same happens. You see, you need to be careful because if you spend too long, the fox starts to dissipate. And the more it dissipates, the less effect you have. You also have to play a little bit with the exposure. The higher the exposure, the more brightness you'll get, and the more of the sulfactor you'll see. So you just have to find that sweet point. If it's too dark, then you cannot see anything. If it's too bright, then it's just too white. The perfect spot is something like this where you can see the streaks enough, but everything else is exposed. You're adding particles that float around where the lights can bounce, making you and the camera able to see the paths of the light. Doesn't this just look much better and more cinematic? If you have your own lights, you were able to see the trajectory of the light. And with the right angle, it makes for quite some striking shots. Now, it is your turn. Convinced, it's a cheap device that really ups your video or photography level. Maybe consider using it. 11. Thank You for Watching!: Thank you so much for taking this course. I hope I got to teach you a lot of new techniques with gear that you might not have known otherwise or to unlock the potential of pieces of gear that you already own. Please do leave a review. This really helps. And if you have any doubts, you can always post them in the class projects or in the discussion tab. Apart from creative shots, the most important thing in the video is the story. I've made a course about it going from an idea all the way to writing a script of the story, filming, and editing. Feel free to check that out. I also post weekly on YouTube with really high effort videos. Feel free to also check them out. With that said, I wish you the very best of luck for your next project, and I hope this class could shape or optimize the way you should video. Thank you.
