I spent 7 months traveling around the middle of the USA with my dog. On my journey, I made it a priority to get better at videography and storytelling.
I captured:
Real Film Flashbacks
YouTube Shorts Channel
232,247,405+ views
5 videos over 10,000,000 views
54 videos over 1,000,000 views
131 videos over 100,000 views
Over 190,000 subscribers
Best period:
100,000,000 views in 90 days
Using the best moments from my favorite films, I’ve re-packaged movie clips into nearly 400 one-minute short-form videos.
Here are some stats:
I fully understand that these impressive statistics only exist due to the hard work done to create these classic films.
However, by working to convert clips into Shorts, I get a close look into some things that I would’ve never noticed from a normal viewing.
Some of my learnings:
How to frame an interesting shot using light, depth, and 3D space
How the use of music can drastically affect the emotional tone of a scene
How to hook viewers in and keep them engaged for a complete, 1-minute story
30 Day Skills
Blender 30-Day challenge
This was my routine;
I worked around 4 hours per day, capturing raw video for each day.
I captured my work from three perspectives: facecam, over the shoulder cam, and a screen recording, combining these into one Streamlabs video file.
Then, I’d bring the file into Premiere Pro, speed it up to anywhere between 10,000% to 30,000%.
After that, I recorded voiceover, created animated subtitles, and used sound effects and additional b-roll to complete the videos.
What I learned:
How to improve at a single skill as fast as possible
How to power myself through the “valley of despair” of the Dunning-Kruger effect
How to model, texture, animate, and render 3D animations in Blender from scratch
I spent 30 days in a row learning the 3D Animation software, Blender.
Truthfully, it was closer to 40 days, but “30 days” makes for a cleaner content package.
I created short videos for each day in the challenge with the goal to create a rocket animation by the final day.
I’m glad you made it this far!
