I also don’t like instructional videos much, and so watching this was a pleasure indeed. The lighting looks brilliant.

We need more videos like this on YouTube instead of the hundreds starting with “today, we’re making this cross-cut sled”

Very pleasant video Brian. I really like the shots/compositions used.

I think instructional videos can still be done well, like Clickspring but really like this approach as well.

I wish video work were easier because it'd be nice to have more like this.

Thanks gents!

I appreciate the positive reception. I'm happy that this has struck a good cord on here and Facebook and my website.

I also wish it were easier to put out this kind of quality, but this is the result of about 6 hours of filming with a talented professional. It was amazing to see how a professional works, Tommy had equipment laid out in my office, then setup and moved around each shot. There was serious equipment involved and zero wasted effort. He then took the footage and edited it which I'm sure took him hours.

If these videos take off on youtube I'll be able to budget more of these, but so far they're hovering around 250 views... :oops: Probably an error on my part having not realized that they were actually hosting at 1080p on there, initially I thought they were 370p so I hosted them on my site (wordpress) and vimeo. They were actually filmed in 4k but I can't seem to upload them onto youtube at that quality.

Did you check back afterwards to see if the videos were still at low resolution? When videos first upload, they are at low resolution, and a few hours later the high resolution version becomes available - - unless you uploaded them as low-res files.

I did, they did show as being available in 1080p after a day or so. Was a relief.

We actually filmed in 4k, but I haven't found a way to show them in 4k, my website only shows 1080p, same with Vimeo and Youtube.
