G'day mate - great video. I wish something like this existed when I started shooting basketball. I'd challenge you on the "Only shoot handheld". There is space for gimble work, especially if you're going for more cinematic feels. Throw on a 35mm and shoot at F4-F8. Lots of pans/tracking shots. I wouldn't shoot an entire game on a gimble, and you need many different angles. I recently shot a Wheelchair basketball game and some of my gimble shots were incredble (probably because of how low you can get to the court and the smoothness of wheelchairs on the court). I've subscribed and will check out more. Awesome stuff - this video was super comprehensive.

Yeah I completely agree. I mentioned that specifically in the game action section where i think it would be very hard to capture highlights with a gimbal, but i agree especially during pre game that gimbals are great. Also, they're good for game action If you're focusing more on the cinematic feel like you said and less on recap style stuff. For my work I need to be sure I capture all of the highlights so I can't afford to use a gimbal during the game, but I should've clarified that.

@@thebobbymedia I didn’t disagree with your overall sentiment. Context is always important. If your task is to capture and recap a game then gimble usage is totally a nice to have. If only we could be in two places at once!

Gave us a literal game plan, great video coach!

Don’t forget to have shooters on skateboards flowing on court like we do with the VBL. So smooth

What do you think about shooting game-action through the viewvinder? Always used the viewfinder so far, thinking if I should be switching to shooting over the external monitor. Nice video, keep those coming!

Personally my camera doesn't have a viewfinder for video shooting. If it works well for you stick with it. However, I like the external monitor because it would allow more flexibility if you want to get really low angle shots and different angles where you can't always have your eye to the viewfinder

Good stuff for beginners watched for 2 mins and quickly realized it wasn’t for me. I’ve been doing all of this in my own personal fitness content forever. Also find the trendy use of cinematographer versus videographer pretty funny

AF with heavy use of focus lock button FTW

Would these tips work for photography as well?

Amazing tutorial and perfect timing! I have a canon SL2, would this be good? It’s the only option I have so I’ll have to work with it. My goal is ultimately get concert footage. I have a great opportunity coming up but I got some film of my buddies car at night and it just was not great quality. Would this be me not knowing how to use the camera which I thought I was confident with or just the camera being poor at lowlight? This is impirtant as concerts are usually lowlight? Any recommendations on what to do or what cameras would work well for this style (budget)?

@thebobbymedia

Depending on your budget, since your main goal is to maximize lowlight capablitilies it probably makes the most sense to go with Sony. Their cheaper cameras are better in lowlight than the canon cheaper cameras. Id recommend a used A6400, A72 or A73

How much would you charge to shoot basketball games

Huge tip: Stop shooting continuous autofocus for game action because the second it starts focus hunting when other players come into frame, it immediately takes the viewer out of the story. Studying shots/frames and how the pros shoot (aka NBA films cinematographers) will level up your shooting and storytelling ten-fold.
