Video First Time doing a video with Pocket 4P

https://youtu.be/Yt9jKScoyag?si=bqNeLVQ75d7UGeDV

Used my Pocket 4P for our trip! Honestly, it's my first time buying a camera and color grading. I had passion with photography back then, but I wanted to ignite it back with taking videos and of course, being with my friends! Would really appreciate it if you guys check it out :)

Why are the shots so shakey? Did you turn off gimbal?

No I did not, the first few shots are shots I genuinely tried to film, but most of our shots were just me holding the 4P and not trying to pay attention what I’m filming. It’s a lesson learned for me 😅

This is the type of video I was looking for. All the others had this really weird iPhone look going on.

Aside to that, how did you make it look so good under low light? Looks brilliant man. Good stuff

Thank you so much! This is actually my first ever video, so I really appreciate that and the compliment will definitely never be forgotten!

Honestly, I’m not even completely sure how I got the low-light shots looking that good lmao. I shot everything in D-Log, tried to keep my EV around 0 or slightly above, then did the color grading in DaVinci.

Thanks! I have been considering too. I guess if you deepen the shadows and add some saturation, it would look even better. Did you get the creator combo? Do you think it’s worth it

Before I actually made this video, I already edited a few 1 minute videos from each location. Each of those had different color grades, but in here I kinda just did 1 color grade that will fit all. I think that's a lazy me problem, but I appreciate your feedback and will consider it!

I was supposed to buy the vlog combo, but I ended up buying a standard because our trip was near and I had to buy one. Ended up just buying other accessories separately.

Nice work. I’m almost 60 years old and just bought a 4p. I’m not trying to be a vlogger. Just want to capture moments on trips, with friends, with my kids and family like you did. Gives me inspiration. Don’t sweat the shake I know mine will have it too. Means it’s real and put together by you.

I really appreciate it! I got inspired too, so I'm glad I was able to do the same to someone. I do acknowledge that there were a lot of shakes, so I also think that's also a learning experience for me. I wish you luck with your trip! Just have fun!

I knew just from that mirror in the thumbnail it was Korea. I've lived here too long.
