The New RØDE Video Micro II is an affordable and surprisingly good-sounding mic for such a small price. I see how the microphone sounds in the review, and add or change nothing - you hear the raw sound right out of the mic. #RØDE #VideoMicroII #review ============================= ?

Learn the basic Premiere Pro effect controls in this step-by-step tutorial. https://geni.us/AdobeCCBFM Although I show this tutorial in the Premiere Pro 2022 version, it should apply to any version of Premiere Pro. I show examples using language anyone can understand and keep it simple and doable. I highly suggest you follow along as I believe doing is far better than just listening to someone blah blah blah away. Here's what this video covers: How to access the Effect Controls, horizontal and verticle positioning, scaling, rotations, anchor points, anti-flicker filter, opacity, circle, square, and free firm drawing, blend modes, time remapping, volume and voice control, channels, panning and more. ============================= LAST 3 VIDEOS: ============================= THESE 4 BASIC YOUTUBE TIPS WILL HELP YOUR CHANNEL GROW - BFM 525 https://youtu.be/0HpiS-DuohA TOP 10 TALENT TIPS IN 10 MINUTES - MAKE GREAT VIDEOS - BFM 524 https://youtu.be/eldlowUUUpI 5 BASICS EVERY Video Must Have to be WATCHABLE on YouTube - BFM 523 https://youtu.be/ve2qYyagVkw ============================= Adobe Creative Cloud (Adobe CC) ============================= https://geni.us/AdobeCCBFM ============================= Courses: ============================= https://geni.us/BFMUniversity ============================= ?

In response to viewer questions, was asked to look for a small motorized slider while at NAB. iFootage makes the best one at the show in my opinion. Although it's not available yet, it's on my BUY list as soon as it hits the streets. https://bit.ly/SubscribeToBasicFilmmaker #basicfilmmaker #slider #motorized NOTE: I was paid a million dollars by iFootage to do this interview. Seriously, did you believe that? Let me be clear on this...I was NOT paid by iFootage to do this interview nor do they have any say in my opinions...actually, no one does. I already reviewed the iFootage tripod (https://youtu.be/VnefJ3XcEKk) and I ended up using their monopod (https://geni.us/xEfDn8) for all my shooting at the show, and it did not disappoint. When I got to the iFootage booth to check everything out, I saw the new, yet to be released Nano slider, and I couldn't pay attention to anything else. These guys are engineers, and they decide how to make things based on engineering awesomeness, not how to save a buck by using cheap plastic or less than working technology. They also are fun, have a sense of humor, and are on my great people list along with Aputure, Deity, and Sound Devices to name a few. The Nano Slider is completely silent, smooth, and doubles up both directions, with a clean, clear display, and can be powered via L-Ion, Cord, or other high powered batteries for all day shooting. Watch the video to see all the features, and hopefully, they will kick this out soon, as I want one NOW! :) Suggested price is $499 available in August.
