what is going on you guys my name is Daniel and I am actually super stoked to
make this video in fact I skipped out on going getting haircut cuz this stuff is
like way hella too long to actually make this video wow that's yeah put that back
yeah I feel email from like fourth grade again anyways so we are going over how
to make cinematic what settings you need with the EOS R and we're gonna try and
do it in under four minutes because I am not trying to waste your time on this
like so many people do with like 15 minute videos for like three settings so
but first order that how things are gonna happen we're gonna go one over why
things look cinematic because even if you have the best settings in here for
it it's still not gonna just look cinematic because you have settings in
there just like video out of the EOS R doesn't look good if you shoot it bad
just like any other camera so we're gonna go over that first and we're going
to go into exactly the settings and then we're going to go into the actual editor
and show you what you have to do to it afterwards to make it look cinematic
let's roll
so first up what makes things cinematic I've shot a little short super like it's
whatever I did it so that I can show you the color correction and kind of what
I'm talking about what makes things cinematic and really what it is is
taking a two-dimensional thing like what you're viewing right now is
two-dimensional and making it fill 3d and how you do that is by having depth
and having contrast and having colors contrast color contrast contrast yes and
so how you can do that is by having there's a few three really simple ways
to do this right backbite have things moving across dimension wise so it's
like foreground subject background and like curving around them and then the
other one is to have different color contrasts in them three simplest ways
really don't waste your time if you don't understand what I'm saying there
go and figure it out that's really why this plug is here for that so you can
understand how to shoot that better more cinematic looking stuff and have well
let's get into the settings now so when you go to shoot you're going to want to
so contrast is a huge part of making things look cinematic what that means is
having your blacks blacker and your lights look brighter so you can get more
detail in your highlights and your shadows that's what you're looking for
because that's what cinema cameras have is very very high dynamic contrast so
they're able to catch a wide area of what it is so going in log is the best
way to do it there's you can't shoot 10-bit but you can shoot 8-bit on this
without ok so if you have an adapter on top you can shoot a capture card you can
shoot 10-bit but you know that not everybody has $1,000 to pop on that so
what you're gonna do is you're gonna come into your settings and you're going
to go into the first one right camera and you're going to go to your well
first off you want to shoot in 24 frames a second so you're gonna go into 24
frames a second and enable because that's what all the cinema cameras used
to roll to is like twenty three point eight nine or something like that so 24
frames a second gives you the most feel that way next up what you're going to do
is go into your camera and to get the motion blur that cinema cameras have as
well you're going to go in and at twice your shutter speed twice your
frame rate your shutter speed should be twice your frame rate so put it at fifty
that's gonna give you the motion blur what that means is if you drop it down
it's going to give it more blur and then if you raise it up it's gonna make it
more chop beat as if it was just pictures being taken over and over again
which is what they used in Saving Private Ryan to make it more action film
feeling whereas if you had a scene where somebody is getting high and
everything's all like loopy then you could drop the shutter speed to show
that and fifty if you're shooting at 24 frames a second having your shutter
speed at 50 is where you're gonna get that cinematic look then also on your
ISO you're gonna want to keep it as close to 400 because that is going to
give you the most dynamic range for this camera so it's close to 400 as you can
shoot is the best deal then going into your log settings which is actually
where you're really going to get your dynamic range in is you're going to go
over the very last number four in the red camera and you're going to down one
two three four five down and your log settings you're gonna click into that
and click 8-bit on boom 8-bit done then I like to use the view assist because
otherwise it's very bland picture on the back and it's really hard to tell depth
and what's going on inside the screen so I've turned that on and then go down to
color matrix and turn off from cinema cos original to neutral what that really
helps is helps you in post to give you I've leased I've found that it makes it
way more realistic afterwards when you boost it and push around the colors you
don't have to adjust or pull out any of the colors and then characteristics
strength is gonna be at four and that is pretty much it that is all the settings
that you're going to need and then you're gonna shoot your film like I just
did a moment ago before this and then you are going to put it in your computer
and we're gonna go do that right now so I guess I'll go grab my computer so
believe it or not this is was a hundred percent unscripted and I've done
in one take so what you're gonna do from here is I need to open up OBS okay so
you're gonna drag and drop your oh my goodness why is this being such okay now
it's crashed solid so the only hitch that has gone off in this entire video
is my software okay yeah I see this block is for a laptop it's huge it's
almost like big enough to be for a regular computer okay I think we're good
maybe so you're in here in yes now it's working perfectly fine power helps with
laptops so what you're gonna do is you're gonna come in here you're gonna
drop it in I'm going to actually remove the make this bigger so I dropped it in
I've removed the audio from it and then what you're gonna do is you're going to
see is just this little thing and this is what it looks like when it is in log
so it's very very flat image because it has pulled out a lot of that contrast
but we are going to pull put that back in so I kind of tried to use some of
those things that I told you about contrasting colors blah blah blah blah
but for the most part it was just so that I could show you how to color
correct let's actually move this to a better location to color correct I'm
going to choose right here where I have the whites and I have the black and then
I have a few other colors that are going to contrast really well so always first
mess with your exposure so I'm going to bring it up just a little bit and that
starts to bring a little bit of grain but if you adjust everything and then
you raise your exposure that's gonna mess with the colors that you've just
set so first things first is usually put in that contrast so as you can see it's
already gone from being very very flat to now having that good contrast in
depth I'm going to actually push highlights a
little bit just for the sake of this one because I like how that looks and then
I'm going to actually drop the shadows a little bit because I enjoy the way it
pulls things out of the image and then I'm going to boost saturation
ever so slightly and then we can watch it again and already it looks way better
because all the colors I didn't even have to pull any of the colors or
correct them and it already looks really good how I would pretty much exactly
like it to look yeah obviously it's not the best and prettiest thing but that is
what you need to do to get really good images and cinematic look out of your
EOS R so if this video helps you out we go over everything mirrorless Canon
cameras my name is Daniel and don't forget to Like and subscribe especially
if you enjoyed this short hand style of doing videos because that's what I'm
gonna try and do more of these tutorials to not waste as much of your time thank
you for watching have a great day take care
