Clint this is a great video. Short and to the point. I’m a budding director and this video and your style are perfect.

This is a great video with some great examples - I like the overview nature of the video, you keep it educational but “snappy”, while providing sources for further research. Good stuff. With what I’ve learned from your video, should I infer that you are slightly off-beat/quirky?

Helpful,sir Hope more contents will come

In the movie Klute you would have shots into the apartment with the two actors yet something was blocking off scene but never fully defined. It makes you feel you are an indescript peeping-Tom witnessing the scene.

This was an awesome watch. Just subbed you 5:12

Its the non evil version of the nostalgia critic

Please how do you achieve a reverse shot with a camera or editing because I'm new into this and I want to get better. I'm still using a phone for now

@ClintTill

Getting a reverse shot on set requires a secondary camera and lighting setup. So, for example, you would first setup your shot for Actor #1 and run through the scene. Then you will need to move the camera and lighting to set up a shot for Actor #2 to capture his/her dialogue. While editing, you can simply cut between the two angles, finding the best takes and the best reactions from each actor.

Dude you look like a sophisticated version of the Nostalgia Critic

Haha. I JUST looked him up and I definitely see the resemblance. Can confirm that there is no relation

Shot-reverse shot is vastly overdone. It’s frequently employed by directors who think constant fast cuts and shaky, er, I mean hand-held is edgy and modern. Interesting how older films made by directors who weren’t afraid of the two-shot are more satisfying and less distracting. We need more directors who don’t get in the way just to prove how “creative” they are.

I agree. I enjoy dialogue scenes that employ a combination of camera and actor movement to create a more visually interesting scene than two people who are just locked down and talking to one another.

I can understand how shot-reverse-shot can feel overdone. However, one of the positives of it is you can see more of the actors/actresses face (specifically the eyes) than you would in a two shot. A two shot typically restricts you to half the face thus half the emotion.

Perhaps they don’t think it’s edgy and modern. Simply that it’s the best way to tell that particular story. The two shot can be used in conjunction with the reverse shot..look at the diner scene in Pulp Fiction. Best of both worlds. Drives narrative. Sets up story. And develops characters while using both techniques

More on the film material, less selfies.

It's really tedious to watch conversation with these shots. Ensemble shots are still best as they show everything going on the frame.

Nothing is less interesting than shot/reverse shot dialogue scenes. Do something else, or just don't make films. We don't ever need to see another scene like that.
