I am an event videographer for over twenty years. Your straight forward conversation was "spot on" Only tips I could add are: Treat each event like it is important! Stay on purpose and don't get involved with the festivities unless it supports your shoot! Although you may shoot hundred events each year, your client is often doing it for the first time. So even a small problem could ruin wonderful coverage and create a disappointed and angry client! "You are only as good as your last shoot"

Thats true your client dont understand your job and often they ask me to do video with apsurd ideas becouse they think that camera see what they see with they eyes and lots of people think that video editing is some sort of magic. For example. o sure video editor vill make me look 20 years yunger. he can put what ever in video in post that is not posible. editing is great but if video material is bad if you shot somebody lets say out of focus, or cut the head bad composition etc. Some times litle mistake do a lots of damage. We are lucky to hawe guys like Anthony his tutorials are pure gold.

I am doing this for underground bands and new projects for free, typically they are all part-time artists and have no money for PR or at all :D. The shows are typically 2-8 hours and there is typically no dedicated area for me moving around I "only" do 2-5 stationary cams.

Wow. I rarely bother with the YT comments but I had to for this video. I've been out of the filming game for many years and my day jobs have finally ground me down to the point I am starting my own company doing something I love. Making music videos. I have a gig lined up in around 6 weeks which I am shooting and this video was priceless not only confirming that I am on the right track, but reminded me of the essentials and the basics which are sometimes overlooked but also provided me with some new ideas and creative food-for-thought. Thank's so much for making and posting this vid.

Very helpful and key to being able to be ready for trouble at live events. Having back up equipment, camera body, mic, etc. Just because little weird glitches can happen. Stuck shutter, firmware update, something and just swap bodies and shoot. Also, its helpful to have plenty of extra cords. I pack a bin with every conceivable adapter, cable, that I could use. Mostly because coming out of a PA can be tricky. 1/8" to XLR. On that note, get the mics as far from the audience as possible. Extra and long XLR cables can help with this, all you'll end up with is some loud person yelling to their friends within 4-5' of the camera. Also, cameras pointed at the audience. Capture their reactions. Person smiling, enjoying themselves, spliced in - brings the video to life. Great, great points Anthony. Thanks.

All good advice. I would say though, NEVER trust a venue's XLR cables. They usually buy the cheapest crappy cables they can get (and then wonder why their sound cuts out so badly). Get or make good ones, and never worry about it again... :)

Great info in this video, well done! I would like to point out a couple things about my experience shooting events with DSLRs: Tip #7 - Beware of battery and media card changes If you miss 20-40 seconds of the action while popping a CF card out and putting a new one in, then you really need to work on being more efficient. It does not take that long to pop and swap a CF card, turn on the DSLR and hit record again, I have done it many times. You can also position your plate so that the battery door is accessible while shooting - you can swing the door down and pop in a new battery and be up and running in a few seconds. 09:20 - Many DSLRs now are at the 30 minute record limit, which is great compared to the old 12 minutes limit. Like you said in your video - staggering each camera is a good idea! If you shoot with Canon DSLRs I recommend using custom firmware "Magic Lantern" and enable the movie auto-restart feature so you can set it not worry about manually restarting.

Hello! I'm new here on the channel, but I liked it a lot, because I needed those teachings. I recently started filming events, and almost nothing I know. But I've learned a lot here. I have a Sony Pxw-x70, I have used it in the events I'm going to shoot, but I have not been successful in sound because it gets saturated. I usually shoot the sound from the sound desk, and I turn right in the camera on the XLR mic input. Would using a PC to capture the part, would it solve? I already tried to lower the sound at the entrance of the camera, but without success. Can you give me some tips?
