what's up buddy how's it going man hey
tomorrow
[Music]
well good morning from Amsterdam I was a
long flight red-eye seven hours from
Toronto to Amsterdam I'm here for 24
hours then I'm headed back crazy but
you'll see why
[Music]
it's all way
[Music]
yeah oh you can just leave the hole I'll
just drink it out of the pot okay here
we go ready first coffee of Amsterdam
holy crap that's hot
that was way harder than I expected it
to do Oh does it feel good going down
okay buffets with Casey he's the guys
gonna show me how it's done
now the key is complementing the cheese
with one or two or three or four or five
mini cross all now I'm going with the
English whole-grain mustard here just
because it seems fancy with the bad
I think it's free you want to get a lot
of meat your high protein here low fat
and keep you strong build them up are
you vegan I think this is gluten-free
wait what is this sugar stir stir and
sugar in one motion this is this is
simply fantastic is what this is okay we
can officially start vlogging now or see
a bridge that bridge right there yeah
that's the bridge that I proposed to my
now wife on download my you should
download my buddy off of youtube then
put it in right when I say that like cut
to it it's a great idea I'll do that
so we'll see a bridge that bridge right
there yeah that's the bridge that I
proposed to my now wife on
[Music]
speaking of YouTube tips Casey mentioned
something that I found actually quite
fascinating that doesn't necessarily
align with what I do all the time but it
could be something that I adapt more
into my own filmmaking this is that tip
there was a horse that won by as you
said that like I heard like the clacking
of like the feet and I try to just not
think about it because it was
distracting me
I think the technical term is the clip
filmmaking tip goes like this this is a
Casey Jim I think a lot of people would
push back against this button I think
especially if you're a youtuber or
blogger that perfection can often get in
the way of productivity so my rule is
never let perfection get in the way of
good enough so there's like a shot back
there on the bridge that's trying to
shoot time-lapse it wasn't perfect I was
like let me just get this okay shot
because I'd rather get like four okay
scenes than one perfect scene because
poor okay scenes equals a story one
perfect scene is like these people are
so kind to wait so nice I think we're
funny it was a good tip yeah yeah don't
let perfection get in the way of good
enough
[Music]
we're gonna rent bikes you ready yeah I
haven't been on a bike in like like nine
years I'm can keep my backpack on but I
got to put this away so that I don't die
in the streets I'll be right back
dude look at my pants so we were outside
but we were outside and suddenly the
skies opened up in a monsoon rained down
upon us sitting here waiting for the
rain to stop whoo all across the ocean
for this and it's raining thank
a little like still a little like I hate
sliding doors that's not a sliding door
so that's yeah I was hoping you wouldn't
point that out but thanks thanks thanks
for us Damir the comment mazing yeah I
think I'm a lot nicer let's rewind that
I hate rotating doors hate them you know
one of the things that I remember the
most from visiting certain places in the
world is obviously the view and how
everything looks and the architecture
that kind of thing but a big part of it
for me is also the sound so by the
sirens the Sun in the rain hanging the
bridge all those kind of things help me
visualize telling a story I feel like it
it really adds character to a place you
know often as cinematographers
photographers were we're very big on the
visuals but we forget that you know the
audio is an important part of that story
how many times have you actually been
here probably like 10 or 15 times I've
never been here for more than a day or
two it's just such an easy place to like
have an extended layover and it's such
an amazing city
okay super long day I'm tired I'm going
to stay right here until tomorrow Peter
who gets up this early should never
still be dark and you wake up in the
morning I don't run either by the way
going running with Casey you don't seem
very well dressed for it are you ready
I'm gonna start my GPS all right and
we're cooking so cool started a nice
easy pace and then work into it you
don't want to go faster out of the gates
you know all right yeah running tips you
get a warm-up as you move oh this isn't
so bad
no that's great it's a great way to
start your day I can get used to this
let's go for the chicken
how far are we gonna go she's like a
couple blocks do you think I look
ridiculous right now
ah wait so how long were you doing this
I taste blood
dude there's nobody outside right now
why are we up this early who gets up
this early this isn't even fun
I don't think I'll ever understand so
some of you might be wondering why I
named this vlog teaching Casey how to
vlog it is really pretty out right now
I'll get in that much she was like
nobody look there's nobody out here
he's just me so it's less about me
actually teaching him how to vlog is
obviously Casey knows how to vlog but
it's more so like sharing our styles
with each other different filmmakers
different content creators obviously
have different ways of doing things
different ways of shooting things so I'm
obviously into shooting b-roll in slow
motion and transitions and like heavy
into the sound design that kind of thing
where's Casey is very strong and very
good as you guys know I don't need to be
telling you this at storytelling so it
was cool actually being able to fuse our
two strengths together all you been out
here vlogging and kind of teach a little
bit to each other about our own personal
technique which I found awesome to be
able to do so I want you to help me
explain to my audience why I named this
vlog teaching Casey how to vlog because
there the truth is there are few
youtubers on the platform whose
cinematography and just camera skills I
think is like so much better than mine
and you are one of those people and I
want to like absorb some of it is some
of your crazy camera skill set to make
my videos better I wanted to make sure
that people knew that it wasn't because
I was like oh I'm gonna show you how
it's done you need you need to be doing
oh I I i if there's anything it's that I
was very forceful and like tell me all
of your crazy secrets Peter because I I
think your your content so great thank
you yeah but like Nick but also forceful
eyes then come to Amsterdam tomorrow
that was a very gentle suggestion that
was an invitation
this guy plans everything so last minute
I am NOT the kind of guy to book a trip
within four is it less than 24 hours
he's like oh I've never booked it what
was it you've never booked a trip yeah I
usually don't ever booked it was more
than 24 hours but I'm sorry and I'm
really I'm so psyched that you came no
best day ever good shoot and thank you
Peter for teaching me how to vlog
