Jake Hower:Dot com on the line with me.
Jake Hower:Welcome, Dave.
Jake Hower:Hey,
Dave Dugdale:thanks for having me on.

Dave Dugdale:I've done quite a few myself, maybe 20 or so years back, and
Dave Dugdale:I know they take a lot of work.
Dave Dugdale:So thanks for doing
Jake Hower:this.
Jake Hower:Yeah, no problems at all.
Jake Hower:It's certainly this is, we're now into our the third episode that I'm recording
Jake Hower:and it was a no brainer to get you on.
Jake Hower:I shoot myself with the DSLR and we've been shooting for about six months
Jake Hower:and I found The resource you've built over it's a learning DSLR video.
Jake Hower:com to be extremely useful for myself.
Jake Hower:So I'm really excited to have you on the show
Dave Dugdale:today.
Dave Dugdale:Hey, thanks for having me.
Dave Dugdale:It's fun to share knowledge with everybody and these podcasts
Dave Dugdale:are a great way to do it.
Dave Dugdale:And I know when I've done podcasts myself, I've usually
Dave Dugdale:do it for more selfish reasons.
Dave Dugdale:I'm like, I want to interview this guy because he knows a lot
Dave Dugdale:about X and he could help me.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, these podcasts are great for sharing information.
Jake Hower:It certainly is.
Jake Hower:And it's a great way to, to speak to potentially people you
Jake Hower:may not be able to get hold of.
Jake Hower:And as you say, just.
Jake Hower:Just ask them some questions and you can get a lot out of yourself.
Jake Hower:So I know the past two episodes that I've got, I've I've had a heap out of
Jake Hower:it that I've implemented just on my own.
Jake Hower:All right, Dave.
Jake Hower:So for our listeners out there, what we're going to do in this episode, we're
Jake Hower:going to be spending about 30 minutes and we'll dive a little bit into Dave's
Jake Hower:background and we're going to then spend a bit of time looking at how.
Jake Hower:Dave's gone about setting up learning DSLR video.
Jake Hower:com and how he's built such a, an amazing audience over at the site there.
Jake Hower:We're then going to bring you some some of Dave's top tips for shooting with
Jake Hower:the DSLR and yeah, we'll go from there.
Jake Hower:So Dave, why don't you, why don't you kick off with a little bit of
Jake Hower:your background of prior to setting up learning DSLR and also, yeah.
Jake Hower:Why you chose to go ahead and set up that particular site.
Dave Dugdale:Unlike your first guest, cause I think that's the only one you've
Dave Dugdale:got posted on your website so far, but I guess he had an education in film school.
Dave Dugdale:I am not like that.
Dave Dugdale:I don't have any film school education or whatsoever.
Dave Dugdale:My background is actually.
Dave Dugdale:I did, I studied audio engineering in school.
Dave Dugdale:Actually I have a bachelor's of music.
Dave Dugdale:And I used to design real large scale sound systems like churches,
Dave Dugdale:arenas, football stadiums, airports.
Dave Dugdale:Sound systems that were very large.
Dave Dugdale:So I have a strong foundation in audio and then, as your question to why I started
Dave Dugdale:it my when our first child was born about 10 years ago, I, I decided to stay home
Dave Dugdale:and she kept working because I'd have the first shift, as a stay at home dad.
Dave Dugdale:And then when our second child was born, I actually went back to work.
Dave Dugdale:But during that time that I was a stay at home dad, I don't know if
Dave Dugdale:you have kids of your own, but they don't do much in the first few months.
Dave Dugdale:They basically sleep and eat, you change diapers.
Dave Dugdale:So I had some extra time on my hands.
Dave Dugdale:So I started a number of websites.
Dave Dugdale:Some have done quite well many years ago and yeah.
Dave Dugdale:What I was doing several years ago when I got really interested in DSLR is
Dave Dugdale:because I've been shooting video for, I don't know, ever since YouTube came
Dave Dugdale:around to do help promote my real estate websites and they were doing really well.
Dave Dugdale:It was a technique that was working really well for me.
Dave Dugdale:I was creating spoofs and funny videos and stuff like that.
Dave Dugdale:Mostly with a camcorder.
Dave Dugdale:But then I remember watching an apple yeah.
Dave Dugdale:Promotional video and I really like the look and I wanted to spoof it, but I
Dave Dugdale:didn't know why the shot looked a certain way and I kept studying it and looking
Dave Dugdale:at it was like asking on the forums and people said that's just a usually
Dave Dugdale:that's a real shallow depth of field.
Dave Dugdale:And I was like how do I get that shallow depth of field?
Dave Dugdale:And people were like you can just.
Dave Dugdale:Buy a DSLR.
Dave Dugdale:They're pretty cheap now and you can shoot video with them.
Dave Dugdale:I was like, Oh, let me try that.
Dave Dugdale:And when the five D mark two came out it was too expensive.
Dave Dugdale:And then the 70 came out, it was too expensive.
Dave Dugdale:And then the T2I came out.
Dave Dugdale:I was like, Oh, I'm buying it.
Dave Dugdale:It's cheap.
Dave Dugdale:Let's try this.
Dave Dugdale:That's how I started this whole process is with the website.
Dave Dugdale:I was just like let's create another website.
Dave Dugdale:Cause websites are pretty easy to create.
Dave Dugdale:And I just, I, at first I thought it was going to be more of a brain
Dave Dugdale:dump where I would just find.
Dave Dugdale:A particular topic I wanted to look, look at our test, like auto lighting optimizer,
Dave Dugdale:for instance, on the cannon cameras.
Dave Dugdale:I was like, if I turn it on, what does it do?
Dave Dugdale:If I turn it off, what does it do?
Dave Dugdale:So I, why not create an actual video of it for my own sake so
Dave Dugdale:I can go back and see later.
Dave Dugdale:And so I published it to the website to share with other people and people
Dave Dugdale:enjoyed me doing those type of tests.
Dave Dugdale:So they're like, encourage me to do more.
Dave Dugdale:And I kept doing more and more as I was learning.
Dave Dugdale:So I was like, yeah.
Dave Dugdale:Maybe making one or two videos a week on things that I was learning.
Dave Dugdale:And that's pretty much why I started it
Jake Hower:fantastic.
Jake Hower:It's I just say a bit of a brain dump to start with, but You've certainly built
Jake Hower:up an amazing resource now and i've Spent hours and hours on the site and on your
Jake Hower:Vimeo channel and YouTube channel going through all the videos and whenever
Jake Hower:now I'm trying to look at something or correct something with my videos, I'll
Jake Hower:just pop across to your site and bang in a few keywords into the custom search and
Jake Hower:nine times out of ten, you've covered.
Jake Hower:Covered my issues.
Jake Hower:So it's great.
Dave Dugdale:I'm glad I could help.
Dave Dugdale:Yes,
Jake Hower:absolutely.
Jake Hower:So it's a, it's really good.
Jake Hower:I'm let's let's move on to some of the stats and your audience
Jake Hower:surrounding learning DSLR video.
Jake Hower:com.
Jake Hower:Why don't to give a little bit of perspective.
Jake Hower:If to our listeners, why don't you just run through, maybe some of the like
Jake Hower:website video visitors how many videos you might have on your site and where
Jake Hower:the majority of your community I guess comes to whether it's the site or whether
Jake Hower:it's your YouTube or Vimeo channels.
Dave Dugdale:Sure.
Dave Dugdale:First off, in terms of visitors to my site, I've been.
Dave Dugdale:typically hovering around 100, 000 visits a month.
Dave Dugdale:I think I haven't looked at my stats in a while, but good 40% of
Dave Dugdale:those visitors are from outside the United States, which is really cool.
Dave Dugdale:Cause I get a lot of people like yourself from all over the world,
Dave Dugdale:which is, it's a lot of fun talking to people from just about everywhere.
Dave Dugdale:You're asking how many posts, that's a good question.
Dave Dugdale:I'm pulling it up right now.
Dave Dugdale:I guess two or 300.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, I've got to about 250.
Dave Dugdale:And I've got about 30 drafts.
Dave Dugdale:I've got always ideas.
Dave Dugdale:I got constant ideas of things that I want to try and do next.
Dave Dugdale:So I got about 30 posts that I want to do that are just sitting there ready
Dave Dugdale:to go, but I just don't have time.
Dave Dugdale:In terms of where I really see the growth, the huge amount of growth for me is yeah.
Dave Dugdale:By far, it's on YouTube, and I'm up to about 40, 000 subscribers on
Dave Dugdale:YouTube, and my videos get watched for about 400, 000 times a month on
Dave Dugdale:YouTube, which is just blows me away.
Dave Dugdale:I'm just amazed how many people watch my videos.
Dave Dugdale:And then on Vimeo, it's a much smaller audience.
Dave Dugdale:My videos get watched about 30, 000 times a month or so.
Dave Dugdale:So it's a really neat tool as my audience keep growing because the beginning of
Dave Dugdale:the year of this year, I only had 14, 000 people are subscribers on YouTube.
Dave Dugdale:So the way it's growing is amazing.
Dave Dugdale:And I could see this time next year.
Dave Dugdale:Probably having 100, 000 and that, provides me with a lot of, I don't
Dave Dugdale:know, neat resources and stuff.
Dave Dugdale:Having that kind of popularity because, like having a relationship with one
Dave Dugdale:of the largest camera stores in the world, B& H, they just send me stuff.
Dave Dugdale:They're like, Dave, what do you want to look at?
Dave Dugdale:We can, we'll send it to you.
Dave Dugdale:So I would make a little bit of money off of my affiliate network that I
Dave Dugdale:built up with B& H, but by far my biggest growth is definitely in YouTube,
Dave Dugdale:I've got if you want to run through like stats with Facebook, I got 3000.
Dave Dugdale:Followers on Facebook and a couple thousand on Twitter and I don't know,
Dave Dugdale:maybe a thousand on Google plus.
Dave Dugdale:So social networking wise, those that's where I stand.
Jake Hower:Yeah, absolutely.
Jake Hower:YouTube, it's probably correlates with a lot of the stats around YouTube.
Jake Hower:That's what now the second biggest search engine in the world.
Jake Hower:And I'm sure it's probably fast approaching Google itself.
Jake Hower:And it wouldn't be, it wouldn't be surprising if in the
Jake Hower:future, it actually overtook.
Jake Hower:Google is the biggest search engine, in my opinion.
Jake Hower:Yeah.
Dave Dugdale:So video is very powerful tool.
Jake Hower:So how do you go about moving moving viewers
Jake Hower:from YouTube to monetizing them?
Jake Hower:Do you, are you pushing people or encouraging people to come back to your
Jake Hower:site or are you monetizing it with with AdSense on the YouTube videos or is there.
Jake Hower:A way that you've seen or you're getting the biggest traction from.
Jake Hower:That's
Dave Dugdale:a really good question.
Dave Dugdale:I don't push it too hard.
Dave Dugdale:I know there's some people on YouTube that push it extremely hard to
Dave Dugdale:get people to their website and I haven't really pushed it that hard.
Dave Dugdale:For instance, a really good example of this is your
Dave Dugdale:description field below the video.
Dave Dugdale:I typically put just about all the text in because if I typically when
Dave Dugdale:I do a video, sometimes I'll write a script, I won't read the script.
Dave Dugdale:Obviously, I just want to know what I'm going to say.
Dave Dugdale:And then when I'm talking to the actual camera, I'm not reading.
Dave Dugdale:I'm just I do a kind of a paragraph at a time.
Dave Dugdale:So I'll read it on the screen and I'll turn towards the camera and it won't
Dave Dugdale:come out exactly the way I wrote it.
Dave Dugdale:But that script is already there.
Dave Dugdale:So I usually put in the description.
Dave Dugdale:But Getting back to this really good example is if you put, if you're
Dave Dugdale:talking about, let's say shutter actuations and how to find which
Dave Dugdale:one, which site will give you the most accurate shutter actuation.
Dave Dugdale:So if if you're going to buy or sell a used camera, you might want to know
Dave Dugdale:how much life is left on the shutter.
Dave Dugdale:Do you put those links in the description below the video or
Dave Dugdale:do you put them on your site?
Dave Dugdale:Typically what I'll do is I'll write the put the script below the video.
Dave Dugdale:But then I'll encourage people to go to my site to get the actual link.
Dave Dugdale:And some people complain about it.
Dave Dugdale:They're like, why don't you just put it in the description?
Dave Dugdale:I'm like come on, I've got advertisers on my site.
Dave Dugdale:So it's not a bad thing.
Dave Dugdale:It's just one click over to my site and you can find the links there.
Dave Dugdale:I would like to push them more to my site.
Dave Dugdale:I'm not too aggressive about it.
Dave Dugdale:I know other people are.
Dave Dugdale:But I think that answers your question.
Jake Hower:Yeah, it does.
Jake Hower:It does.
Jake Hower:And I can certainly I can appreciate where you're coming from with
Jake Hower:some of the negative comments.
Jake Hower:It's amazing.
Jake Hower:Some people just don't get that the reason you're able to produce
Jake Hower:this particular content is because you're able to monetize it.
Jake Hower:I know I've had a few comments on our Facebook page with some of
Jake Hower:the Facebook advertising we do.
Jake Hower:They're saying, Oh, Hey, why are you advertising to me?
Jake Hower:Get get away with your advertising.
Jake Hower:And I'm how do you think you're using Facebook for free?
Jake Hower:It's because of advertisers.
Jake Hower:It's it's quite quite amusing sometimes.
Jake Hower:Okay.
Jake Hower:Let's let's look at a little bit going to a little bit then around around your site.
Jake Hower:So you've got over 250 posts.
Jake Hower:How long would you say, or would you estimate you'd have
Jake Hower:to put into the creation of each video and the proceeding post.
Dave Dugdale:It depends.
Dave Dugdale:There's I would things that I would call cornerstone pieces.
Dave Dugdale:Ones that I would like to spend a lot of time on because I know it's going
Dave Dugdale:to be extremely popular because I might be one of the only few guys in the
Dave Dugdale:country to have, let's say, two cameras that I compare against each other.
Dave Dugdale:In that case, I always spend, because B& H gives me a full 30 days to review
Dave Dugdale:products and I'll spend the full 30 days working on that kind of video.
Dave Dugdale:I won't be working on every hour, working hour kind of thing,
Dave Dugdale:but I'll spend a lot of time.
Dave Dugdale:I'll spend a lot of time with those cameras because I know those will be
Dave Dugdale:extremely popular and some of those videos will get watched 400, 500, 000 times.
Dave Dugdale:So in that case, I'll spend a lot of time, but an average kind of
Dave Dugdale:typical post that I know is only going to get watched maybe 10 times.
Dave Dugdale:I'll probably spend it might be the idea might be in my head for a few
Dave Dugdale:days and then I might write it down.
Dave Dugdale:So just writing it down might just take 15 minutes.
Dave Dugdale:And then I'll actually record it, which might only take I usually can do it on
Dave Dugdale:the first or second take and usually my video is only three or five minutes long.
Dave Dugdale:So recording the video will only take, maybe 20 minutes and then
Dave Dugdale:editing will take a lot longer and then rendering and then uploading and
Dave Dugdale:then putting out to the social media.
Dave Dugdale:I'd say all in all, if I'm doing a typical video, yeah, you're looking
Dave Dugdale:at maybe three, three and a half, four hours, something like that.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah,
Jake Hower:absolutely.
Jake Hower:I'd say I got a little bit of envy back there.
Jake Hower:You're talking about if you're only getting 000 views,
Jake Hower:you won't spend as long.
Jake Hower:I know.
Jake Hower:I'm investing four or five hours in videos that are getting me at 250 views.
Dave Dugdale:I think if you build really good content, and
Dave Dugdale:I think And you got to look out.
Dave Dugdale:I don't even really consider competition, but because there's a lot of other
Dave Dugdale:people that do similar videos to what I do, especially in comparison
Dave Dugdale:videos, and they do an outstanding job, but you should, do a little
Dave Dugdale:bit of research find out what other people have already put up on YouTube.
Dave Dugdale:So search for the most popular videos and then yeah.
Dave Dugdale:You might say, Oh, I didn't know that.
Dave Dugdale:Or or you might watch the videos like, Oh, I want to know more about this, but
Dave Dugdale:he didn't talk about it and then fill in the gaps and create a very complete piece.
Dave Dugdale:I think people are really appreciate that.
Dave Dugdale:And also, there's the other big thing too.
Dave Dugdale:I think a lot of people neglect is not only watch those top videos, but look
Dave Dugdale:at some of the top comments because they might say, Hey you totally got it wrong,
Dave Dugdale:and that's the funny thing about YouTube, especially with the audience that I
Dave Dugdale:have now, I can publish things, publish a video, and with 10 minutes, I know
Dave Dugdale:if I've got it right or wrong, because they'll tell me if I got something wrong.
Dave Dugdale:It's Dave, you screwed this part up.
Dave Dugdale:It's ah, darn, Definitely look at the comments because you can learn
Dave Dugdale:a ton just from reading all those.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, that's
Jake Hower:great.
Jake Hower:That's that's really brilliant.
Jake Hower:I know I I look at our stats in terms of some of our videos
Jake Hower:we host with with wistia.
Jake Hower:com and they provide pretty great heat maps in terms of viewers and
Jake Hower:where people start watching, stop watching, et cetera, et cetera.
Jake Hower:So I can I can gauge from that how engaged people are with the audience,
Jake Hower:but certainly again, I'm very envious.
Jake Hower:That you're able to do that within 10 minutes without without
Jake Hower:the need to even look at stats.
Jake Hower:It's the comments give you the instant feedback.
Dave Dugdale:I do look at stats too, especially one of the things I learned
Dave Dugdale:early on, which I think is a big thing with most YouTube videos is that if you
Dave Dugdale:are going to be in front of the camera and you have a two or three minute video,
Dave Dugdale:you don't want to, you're going to.
Dave Dugdale:You're going to lose a lot of, you're going to lose a lot of your audience
Dave Dugdale:in the first 20 or 30 seconds if you're on camera for that long.
Dave Dugdale:So if you're talking about a camera or you're talking about whatever
Dave Dugdale:you're, whatever you're selling or whatever you're doing, cut away
Dave Dugdale:to a B roll shot of something.
Dave Dugdale:And you shouldn't be on screen for more than 15, 20 seconds.
Dave Dugdale:I try to limit even less than that sometimes, not that I don't.
Dave Dugdale:Having myself on the screen is a bad thing.
Dave Dugdale:It's just that it's much more engaging.
Dave Dugdale:And if you're trying to make a point on something and you can reinforce
Dave Dugdale:that with really good cutaway B roll type shots man, it just, you, what you
Dave Dugdale:do is you look at your, the YouTube analytics and you watch what happens
Dave Dugdale:with a video with B roll versus not.
Dave Dugdale:And it's just night and day.
Dave Dugdale:I learned that early on that, the more B roll I put in, the more people stayed in.
Dave Dugdale:Glued or even rewound and watch things over again throughout the whole
Dave Dugdale:three to five minutes of the video.
Dave Dugdale:If you don't, they drop off quickly after, like I said, that their first 30 seconds.
Jake Hower:Yeah, that's fantastic.
Jake Hower:Hold that thought for just a second, Dave.
Jake Hower:I think that's a fantastic segue into some of the techniques and some of the
Jake Hower:gear that you use to To, to shoot the videos and making them more engaging.
Jake Hower:But I just have one more question which I guess is related to both of these
Jake Hower:points you seem to produce a fair number of videos where you're actually doing
Jake Hower:a, like a a shoot off or a comparison between, probably the latest one
Jake Hower:would be like the T4i against the T3i.
Jake Hower:These are obviously quite popular type style of videos, are they?
Dave Dugdale:Oh, yes.
Dave Dugdale:In fact, it's in terms of building the YouTube audience
Dave Dugdale:that those are my number one.
Dave Dugdale:Because you can look in your stats and find out where you're getting
Dave Dugdale:the most subscribers from each video.
Dave Dugdale:And I'm getting, hundreds a month or more on those particular comparison videos.
Dave Dugdale:Because if you think about it, I don't, Where you live but in my part of the
Dave Dugdale:country a lot of the Not even the small mom and pops but some of the regional
Dave Dugdale:camera stores have been going out of business like ritz camera and wolf camera
Dave Dugdale:filing for chapter 11 and I think I don't know if you can blame me and some
Dave Dugdale:other people on youtube, but It could be due to comparison videos, because when
Dave Dugdale:you walk into a camera store and you start talking to the guy or girl behind
Dave Dugdale:the counter about a certain camera or lens or filter or whatever like that,
Dave Dugdale:you have no idea if that person is.
Dave Dugdale:Shooting 50 weddings a year and is extremely, has a lot of
Dave Dugdale:experience to draw from and can guide you to the right camera.
Dave Dugdale:Or is somebody that takes pictures of his cat with an iPhone?
Dave Dugdale:You don't know, you don't, but with somebody like me, who's built up
Dave Dugdale:somewhat of a personality or brand on YouTube, and you can see where
Dave Dugdale:you can see the quality of my work.
Dave Dugdale:You can see instantly the quality of my work of what I'm doing.
Dave Dugdale:And if you don't like it, you can obviously move on, but if it's.
Dave Dugdale:The type of look that you're going after you're definitely going to
Dave Dugdale:come back or subscribe to my channel.
Dave Dugdale:And when I do a comparison video and my level of expertise, cause I, I like, I've
Dave Dugdale:only been doing this for three years.
Dave Dugdale:I'm not like a Shane Hurlbutt or, a famous DP that, works on Hollywood films.
Dave Dugdale:I'm just, a guy learning.
Dave Dugdale:And I think a lot of people can connect with that.
Dave Dugdale:And I tell people this, Hey, I'm learning.
Dave Dugdale:I make mistakes, and then a lot of people find it.
Dave Dugdale:Accessible to my style because they're learning to they like to learn along with
Dave Dugdale:me and I learn a lot from their comments.
Dave Dugdale:They'll say Dave, you might want to try it this way.
Dave Dugdale:And Oh, I didn't even think of that, think that I'm going off on a tangent,
Dave Dugdale:but I think I answered your question.
Jake Hower:Yeah, no, definitely.
Jake Hower:And I must say that's that was the exact reason that I subscribed
Jake Hower:to you in the first place.
Jake Hower:I was looking at the comparison between a 60 day and a 600 day.
Jake Hower:And I did, I come to the conclusion based off your video that The 600D was
Jake Hower:going to be suitable for me because I wasn't doing a lot of stills photography.
Jake Hower:I was just needed it for for video.
Jake Hower:And I guess some of the key differences were more, I get potentially more related
Jake Hower:to the stills photography with the
Dave Dugdale:60D.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, the both of those campers, both those cameras have the
Dave Dugdale:same exact image quality.
Dave Dugdale:They have the same sensor.
Dave Dugdale:They might have a different processor in them.
Dave Dugdale:I can't remember.
Dave Dugdale:I think they do.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, they do.
Dave Dugdale:But the digit four processor and it's the same A.
Dave Dugdale:P.
Dave Dugdale:S.
Dave Dugdale:C.
Dave Dugdale:Sensor.
Dave Dugdale:So image quality.
Dave Dugdale:For both video and still is going to be exactly the same, but how you get there
Dave Dugdale:and like you were saying, photography wise, the 60 you might have a few
Dave Dugdale:things that you might like better.
Dave Dugdale:That might get your results quicker, but image quality, you're going
Dave Dugdale:to end up with the same image.
Dave Dugdale:If you have the time, for instance, maybe one shoots at a faster frame
Dave Dugdale:rate and you might be able to catch that shot because one was able to
Dave Dugdale:shoot one frame faster per second and you weren't able to do that, whatever
Dave Dugdale:you're trying to accomplish quicker.
Dave Dugdale:So yeah, the latest Canon M camera that just the ESM camera
Dave Dugdale:came out has exact same sensor.
Dave Dugdale:So image quality again is the same where everybody's wondering and waiting when
Dave Dugdale:the new APS C sensor is going to come out.
Dave Dugdale:And everybody's thinking that's going to be in the new Canon 7D.
Dave Dugdale:Hopefully we'll see that pretty soon.
Dave Dugdale:Fantastic.
Jake Hower:All right, moving along.
Jake Hower:Let's let's go back to some of the shooting techniques for for
Jake Hower:making your videos engaging and I'm going to be nice and selfish here.
Jake Hower:So I'm shooting a weekly news update for for our audience
Jake Hower:where we're a travel agency here.
Jake Hower:So I shoot just a quick recap of the news each week.
Jake Hower:I want to make them more engaging.
Jake Hower:They're about five minutes long.
Jake Hower:Each of these videos I'm shooting by myself and it's generally in,
Jake Hower:in the office or in the, in, in the immediate vicinity of the office.
Jake Hower:You're just talking about the fact that people will for 30
Jake Hower:seconds if it's face to camera.
Jake Hower:How am I best to go about introducing B roll?
Jake Hower:Should I be shooting with a secondary camera or can I achieve some good
Jake Hower:results with just the one camera and actually spending the time to, to
Jake Hower:go off and shoot some B roll either before the main shoot or after the main
Dave Dugdale:shoot?
Dave Dugdale:Oh, you can definitely just do it with one camera that the times that I use
Dave Dugdale:two cameras at the same exact time and they're both shooting at the same exact
Dave Dugdale:time if I'm demonstrating something in real time and I'm not cutting away,
Dave Dugdale:if so let's say I'm demonstrating a certain procedure on the camera itself
Dave Dugdale:and I'm demonstrating how to go from one mode to the other or how to use the
Dave Dugdale:touch screen or something like that.
Dave Dugdale:You'll see me on camera.
Dave Dugdale:I'll talk to the camera.
Dave Dugdale:When I look down towards the camera and I'm actually fooling around
Dave Dugdale:with it with my fingers, then I'll get a closeup shot of that.
Dave Dugdale:That's when I would use two, but everything else.
Dave Dugdale:So if you're a travel agency, let's say, and you're talking about the
Dave Dugdale:weekly recap or something like that.
Dave Dugdale:And you're talking about a new island that's popular and.
Dave Dugdale:You happen to go there and you've got some great cutaway shots of people water skiing
Dave Dugdale:or jet skiing or doing stuff like that.
Dave Dugdale:And you're talking about jet skiing and I got great deals on
Dave Dugdale:jet skis or something like that.
Dave Dugdale:I have no idea what you do actually.
Dave Dugdale:But if you have that, those cutaway shots they can make all the difference
Dave Dugdale:in the world and keeps it in terms of retaining your audience.
Dave Dugdale:And yeah.
Dave Dugdale:And not having that YouTube dip in terms of losing viewers, because if you can have
Dave Dugdale:really good engaging B roll, like exactly when you're talking about that particular,
Dave Dugdale:and to really enhance what a story you're trying to tell will really help you out.
Jake Hower:And in terms of the B roll, what's the best type of B roll?
Jake Hower:Are we talking little pans and zooms and using sliders or something like that?
Jake Hower:Or can it be as simple as, I don't know, if you haven't got the time or the
Jake Hower:location to, to introduce video as your B roll, can you introduce images potentially
Jake Hower:into the, in the editing process?
Dave Dugdale:Oh, sure.
Dave Dugdale:You could definitely the one thing I've learned a long time
Dave Dugdale:ago there's an awesome research resource and it's on digital juice.
Dave Dugdale:I learned many years ago they have a thing called digital is digital juice
Dave Dugdale:TV and you'd have to go back way in the archives with some of the stuff they have
Dave Dugdale:back there is just absolutely brilliant.
Dave Dugdale:I don't know if you can share that link.
Dave Dugdale:I'll try to find a link for you on where to find those archives deep buried.
Dave Dugdale:But one of the things I learned a long time ago from those guys were just pros
Dave Dugdale:that they're way ahead of their time is if you do have something on the screen,
Dave Dugdale:you want to have some sort of movement.
Dave Dugdale:If the camera's moving, that's great.
Dave Dugdale:If.
Dave Dugdale:If just your hands are moving in the frame, that's okay too, but if you have
Dave Dugdale:a picture, don't keep it stagnant, try to do a bit Ken Burns type of thing
Dave Dugdale:where you're zooming in or panning left or doing something like that
Dave Dugdale:keeps the interest going, having a stagnant picture on the screen for
Dave Dugdale:three to four seconds while it might.
Dave Dugdale:Seem like it wouldn't be that bad of a thing But if you just had that little bit
Dave Dugdale:of movement with a simple, keyframe pan and tilt or whatever you want zoom It adds
Dave Dugdale:so much more Professional feel to it I think that kind of answers your question.
Jake Hower:It does.
Jake Hower:All right, now let's go.
Jake Hower:I think there's potentially at least one more very important aspect to, to I guess
Jake Hower:getting a good quality engaging video.
Jake Hower:And I would imagine it's the soundtrack.
Jake Hower:I guess it's a two part question.
Jake Hower:Where do you find music to include in your videos?
Jake Hower:And two how how do you decide is it is it essentially just a little bit of just.
Jake Hower:I guess you, you getting a feeling from a particular soundtrack as to
Jake Hower:how it's going to affect the video.
Dave Dugdale:It depends on the video, obviously.
Dave Dugdale:If you're talking about the type of videos that I make, like comparison videos and
Dave Dugdale:stuff like that, that are really popular.
Dave Dugdale:I do other videos like corp, I've done some corporate videos, some real
Dave Dugdale:estate videos, if, stuff like that.
Dave Dugdale:So they're all going to take on their own feel are.
Dave Dugdale:For instance, if you're just talking about a comparison video, what I've
Dave Dugdale:learned with those are if you're going from topic to topic and you have some
Dave Dugdale:background music and I use, I have a relationship with a premium beat
Dave Dugdale:dot com and they've got a very large selection of really high quality music.
Dave Dugdale:My, they, yeah.
Dave Dugdale:They do charge a bit for their songs, but they're royalty free.
Dave Dugdale:So you can use them as much as you want after that, after you purchase it.
Dave Dugdale:But those songs are great in terms of using as background
Dave Dugdale:music for when I'm talking.
Dave Dugdale:Socially, you don't want anything with like lyrics and it can be distracting
Dave Dugdale:while you're doing a voiceover.
Dave Dugdale:And when I noticed if I have a 20 minute comparison video and i'm
Dave Dugdale:going from topic to topic a lot of times You'll hear in the background.
Dave Dugdale:It's a subconscious level is the musical end as I finish a thought and I'm
Dave Dugdale:moving on to the next item or thought.
Dave Dugdale:I'll start a different background music and I'll let that music start
Dave Dugdale:up and it's a lot of people don't even notice that, but it really carries
Dave Dugdale:the whole piece along a lot nicer.
Dave Dugdale:So I think that answers your question.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, it
Jake Hower:does.
Jake Hower:It doesn't.
Jake Hower:That's yeah, your videos are just incredibly engaging, so I can see
Jake Hower:that you're doing something right.
Jake Hower:Thanks.
Jake Hower:Now just one thing, I'm just on your site right now and I've noticed I guess it's
Jake Hower:relatively recently you've started playing around with the thumbnails of your video.
Jake Hower:How are you are you seeing better click throughs or better
Jake Hower:playwrights by doing this?
Dave Dugdale:Oh yeah, I love I just started doing that recently.
Dave Dugdale:I love, that's one of the things I love about DSLRs is not only do they take
Dave Dugdale:awesome pictures, they take awesome video and I love taking pictures.
Dave Dugdale:I like carrying just one camera with me.
Dave Dugdale:And what I started doing, if you're looking at that one, that's like the
Dave Dugdale:Sennheiser G3 comparison video where I'm standing where with all the transmitters
Dave Dugdale:and I've got the Denver skyline in the background, that's a composite picture.
Dave Dugdale:And I'm a huge Scott Kelby training fan.
Dave Dugdale:I don't know if any of your audience knows anything about that, but I have
Dave Dugdale:learned so much in photography that crosses over into video all the time
Dave Dugdale:and for a year, I don't know, I'm not, I don't have any relationship with them.
Dave Dugdale:They don't.
Dave Dugdale:Provide me any kickbacks or anything, but you can get for 150 200 a year.
Dave Dugdale:You can watch all the videos You'll never even watch all of them because
Dave Dugdale:there's so many of them and there's different techniques you can learn and
Dave Dugdale:this one is by a gentleman His name is joel grimes and that's his kind of style
Dave Dugdale:so it's I Shot the picture HDR of the landscape because I was right there.
Dave Dugdale:I just set my picture up I did five bracketed frames
Dave Dugdale:for the landscape behind me.
Dave Dugdale:I You know, I tone mapped it within Photomatix Pro and then the picture of me.
Dave Dugdale:I'm down in my basement studio I just took a picture and they're
Dave Dugdale:all done with hot lights.
Dave Dugdale:No flash Although I really do need to buy some flashes Or strobes.
Dave Dugdale:And I just took that and I followed the example that Joel Grimes gives
Dave Dugdale:in his lesson on Kelby training.
Dave Dugdale:And I think I don't, I haven't done a lot of research on it yet, but I
Dave Dugdale:know when I personally see a thumbnail like that, I am way more inclined to
Dave Dugdale:click on that than some guy sitting in a office with really poor lighting.
Dave Dugdale:And it's not really showing you what he's It's going to demonstrate.
Dave Dugdale:So I, I don't know for a fact that I'm getting higher click through rates on
Dave Dugdale:that, but I got to, because I know a lot of people comment on the actual
Dave Dugdale:thumbnail itself, so I think it's working.
Jake Hower:Yeah it's pulling me in now you're looking at you've got,
Jake Hower:I'm just looking at your homepage.
Jake Hower:You've got essentially a grid of nine videos and that one just stands out.
Jake Hower:And truly above every other video there it's so engaging.
Jake Hower:I know I've been playing around with it a little bit, just started playing
Jake Hower:around with it and it seems to have increased our play rates, but yeah it's
Jake Hower:certainly something that our audience should consider looking at as well.
Jake Hower:Yeah,
Dave Dugdale:and I think if you look at some of the top YouTube people, like the
Dave Dugdale:top 100 YouTube people, you're going to find that the common theme that they all
Dave Dugdale:do compositing, and they might make the background totally yellow, and they've
Dave Dugdale:got their subject title and big text so you can read it on the thumbnail.
Dave Dugdale:There's a lot of things that you can learn from some of those
Dave Dugdale:top 100 people on YouTube that are just making a ton of money.
Dave Dugdale:I went to a YouTube conference a couple years ago, one of the very first ones.
Dave Dugdale:And a project manager came out on stage and said that some of the very
Dave Dugdale:very top people on YouTube are making a hundred thousand dollars a month.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah.
Dave Dugdale:I know I'm definitely not at that level.
Dave Dugdale:I'm like in the top 5, 000, but I'm not.
Dave Dugdale:Definitely in the top 10 or 100 quickly approaching that though.
Dave Dugdale:No, I don't know.
Dave Dugdale:I'd be, I'd be just amazed if this time next year I've got
Dave Dugdale:100, 000 people following me.
Dave Dugdale:That would just be because one of the things I'd like to do with the site as
Dave Dugdale:I make more money with it is to, do some different projects, passion projects.
Dave Dugdale:I'm working on one right now.
Dave Dugdale:It's a promotional piece for a local photographer and just spend
Dave Dugdale:as much time as I want on it and get the story where I want it to be.
Dave Dugdale:And I'm not asking to get paid for the project and, but, maybe after
Dave Dugdale:it's done and I put it out, maybe I make some sort of training tutorial
Dave Dugdale:for it that I can sell, but I would, be able to pick my own projects and
Dave Dugdale:work on things that I want to work on is where I'm heading with the site.
Jake Hower:On that, I don't need you to reveal numbers or anything like that,
Jake Hower:but is the site, is it sustainable now?
Jake Hower:Is it a full time income for you?
Jake Hower:I
Dave Dugdale:think since the launch of my first product last month I can say
Dave Dugdale:yes, it's getting to the point where it's making more than my other sites.
Dave Dugdale:Because my real estate sites used to be the bread and butter for many years
Dave Dugdale:and done extremely well, but they've Fallen by the wayside because I've spent
Dave Dugdale:so much time on this darn DSLR site.
Dave Dugdale:It's taken away from my other sites.
Dave Dugdale:When it comes down to it, this site is so much funner than real estate.
Dave Dugdale:So that's why, you follow your passion and I really enjoy it.
Dave Dugdale:And it's just a lot of fun.
Dave Dugdale:I get so much great feedback when you, and it's like crickets
Dave Dugdale:over on my real estate site.
Dave Dugdale:Nobody cares.
Dave Dugdale:I could be, I could code up the best, thing on that site, but nobody cares.
Jake Hower:Fantastic.
Jake Hower:I agree.
Jake Hower:It's if you're engaged with with your own, with the project you're
Jake Hower:on, it just makes it so much easier.
Jake Hower:It's not work.
Dave Dugdale:Really?
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, it isn't.
Dave Dugdale:No, I didn't really enjoy
Jake Hower:it.
Jake Hower:All right, Dave.
Jake Hower:I've got one more question for you before we go ahead and wrap up.
Jake Hower:Now this sort of putting you on the spot a little bit.
Jake Hower:And Let's say you've got 1, 500 you're new to the world of video shooting.
Jake Hower:We want to get a DSLR camera and some other kit without having
Jake Hower:to hold you to exact prices.
Jake Hower:What would you buy with that 1, 500?
Dave Dugdale:First off, if I was a beginning shooter, I would go
Dave Dugdale:with a crop sensor camera like the Canons have and I would actually
Dave Dugdale:go to get a refurbished Rebel.
Dave Dugdale:A lot of times these refurbished ones you buy directly from Canon.
Dave Dugdale:You can get extremely good deals.
Dave Dugdale:In fact, there was a deal today.
Dave Dugdale:You could buy rebel t3i for around 350 dollars And it's only got not
Dave Dugdale:many actuations on it whatsoever.
Dave Dugdale:So it's basically a brand new camera I just picked one up because i'm doing
Dave Dugdale:a training course on the t3i right now and I wanted to keep it for a While so
Dave Dugdale:right there you've only got 350 bucks and then the first lens I would suggest most
Dave Dugdale:people get is a 50 millimeter, a fast 50.
Dave Dugdale:And that's going to teach you a lot of things.
Dave Dugdale:I would say just stay with that one particular lens
Dave Dugdale:for the first month or two.
Dave Dugdale:And you can learn so much from that one lens.
Dave Dugdale:Before you even get into zooms, just deal with the fast 50.
Dave Dugdale:Maybe the 1.
Dave Dugdale:8 and that's only 100 bucks.
Dave Dugdale:So now you're up to 450 bucks So then I would graduate into a a zoom that has
Dave Dugdale:is and there's lots of different ones out there I particularly own one that
Dave Dugdale:works well for a crop sensor and that's 28 to 135 all this stuff, is listed on
Dave Dugdale:my gear page as well And if you go to my site, it says my gear at the top.
Dave Dugdale:So having is really important, especially for video the next one I would definitely
Dave Dugdale:get like a video road video mic.
Dave Dugdale:They're only like 150 bucks.
Dave Dugdale:The pro version, maybe 200 bucks.
Dave Dugdale:I actually get the pro version.
Dave Dugdale:If you're using one of these Canon cameras, cause the.
Dave Dugdale:Preamp inside the cameras are pretty terrible.
Dave Dugdale:So you want to turn down that preamp as much as possible.
Dave Dugdale:So you want a very sensitive microphone.
Dave Dugdale:The next thing I would buy I don't know what I'm up to now.
Dave Dugdale:Let's see.
Dave Dugdale:I'm up to about 600, 700 dollars.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, I'm probably, no, I'm actually probably about a thousand by now.
Dave Dugdale:Next thing I would buy is a tripod and a fluid head.
Dave Dugdale:That's slider.
Dave Dugdale:And maybe a glide cam device, a monopod, and then you're
Dave Dugdale:going to need some ND filters.
Dave Dugdale:And actually at that point, I think I've already broke your bank.
Dave Dugdale:So this, people like your last guest talked about, he said we're at a
Dave Dugdale:wonderful time right now because you can basically have access to all
Dave Dugdale:this wonderful gear and do stuff that people couldn't do for 10 years ago
Dave Dugdale:for, 50 to a hundred thousand dollars.
Dave Dugdale:Now we can do for just a couple of thousand dollars, which is
Dave Dugdale:amazing, this hobby that you're getting into don't be misled.
Dave Dugdale:It's not a cheap hobby.
Dave Dugdale:It adds up.
Dave Dugdale:It keeps pulling at your wallet.
Dave Dugdale:I, I was buying more stuff today.
Dave Dugdale:I'm like, damn, I just keep buying stuff.
Dave Dugdale:I keep buying stuff.
Dave Dugdale:It doesn't seem to stop.
Dave Dugdale:It's oh, I need that.
Dave Dugdale:I need a light.
Dave Dugdale:I need, yeah, a polarizer.
Dave Dugdale:I need a monopod.
Dave Dugdale:It just keeps adding up.
Dave Dugdale:But I would say if you bought those items that added up to about 1, 500 Within the
Dave Dugdale:first year, you're just using those items.
Dave Dugdale:You can learn so much and you can produce unbelievably good work with those as
Dave Dugdale:you learn, and then as you get better, what I've did after a couple of years,
Dave Dugdale:I went to a full frame because it has some other advantages and you get
Dave Dugdale:better glass with the full frame, but.
Dave Dugdale:Just, gosh, you can buy things like refurbished or used lenses and really
Dave Dugdale:get you started for a cheap price.
Jake Hower:Yeah, absolutely.
Jake Hower:That's listeners.
Jake Hower:I'm going to pop in links to everything we've been discussing in this episode.
Jake Hower:And I'll certainly make notes to pop in a link direct to Dave's gear
Jake Hower:section which will have everything that he's discussed here as well.
Jake Hower:Now.
Jake Hower:Okay, Dave, let's we'll just wrap up there.
Jake Hower:I really appreciate you taking the time today.
Jake Hower:We're a little bit over the 30 minutes that's that I asked of you, but, and so
Jake Hower:I appreciate you staying on the line.
Jake Hower:Obviously you're fantastic at how to videos and training.
Jake Hower:You've also just mentioned that you've put together a bit of a product.
Jake Hower:What's that product and who who's going to benefit from, for, from
Jake Hower:getting this particular product?
Dave Dugdale:The first one I did was on the Canon T4i and it's a beginner's guide.
Dave Dugdale:It's It just deals with the actual camera itself.
Dave Dugdale:So no accessories.
Dave Dugdale:I'm not going to teach you how to use a slider, a glide camera, or how to
Dave Dugdale:use a, external microphones and stuff.
Dave Dugdale:It's a three hour over three hour course.
Dave Dugdale:And all that time is just spent on the fundamentals of video.
Dave Dugdale:I'm not teaching anything about stills.
Dave Dugdale:It's all about video.
Dave Dugdale:And there's so many things to cover.
Dave Dugdale:And there's so many settings and parameters that you can screw with.
Dave Dugdale:And I try to get you up to speed as And show you all the things that I've
Dave Dugdale:learned over the last three years and the mistakes I've made and, how to get
Dave Dugdale:the best results out of your camera, just, just the exposure on these cameras.
Dave Dugdale:If you're off by a third of a stop can make a big difference when
Dave Dugdale:you get to edit your video and the lighting and, ah, there's so many
Dave Dugdale:different things, picture styles.
Dave Dugdale:So I demonstrate a lot of that stuff in that video, the Canon T4i.
Dave Dugdale:And I'm making one right now on the Canon T3i.
Dave Dugdale:And then I've got some other courses I've got planned that I've started
Dave Dugdale:on terms of editing and transcoding and rendering and stuff like that.
Dave Dugdale:But that's.
Dave Dugdale:Pretty much just getting started.
Dave Dugdale:It's a real beginner's type guide.
Dave Dugdale:If you've just bought the camera for Christmas or something like that, and
Dave Dugdale:you're looking to get into video, then I think this will really help you out a lot.
Jake Hower:This particular camera, the T4i, this is Canon's newest
Dave Dugdale:camera, is it?
Dave Dugdale:Yeah, it's their latest offering on the Rebel line, which is extremely affordable.
Dave Dugdale:Won't set you back like the, 5D Mark III will.
Dave Dugdale:And it's a great.
Dave Dugdale:Great.
Dave Dugdale:And in fact, if you've got the right lighting, and I've demonstrated this
Dave Dugdale:before in my videos, if you've got the right lighting and you compare
Dave Dugdale:the, because I've cut between both of them, the the T2i, which you can get
Dave Dugdale:for, like I said, used for 300 bucks because they don't sell them anymore.
Dave Dugdale:And the 5D Mark III.
Dave Dugdale:You will have extremely a hard time telling the difference between the two.
Dave Dugdale:The only time that the 5d Mark three really starts to shine in
Dave Dugdale:terms of video is when you get into when you start pushing the ISO well
Dave Dugdale:above, 800, 1600, stuff like that.
Dave Dugdale:And I'm a run and gun type of shooter.
Dave Dugdale:So having.
Dave Dugdale:Access to really good lighting.
Dave Dugdale:Sometimes it's not possible.
Dave Dugdale:So that's one of the major reasons I've got the 5D Mark III is I can
Dave Dugdale:use it just about anywhere almost in, in pitch black lighting conditions
Dave Dugdale:and you still get amazing results.
Jake Hower:That's great.
Jake Hower:So that's it sounds to me like the product is is going to save.
Jake Hower:Our viewers, if they go ahead and purchase it, it's going to save them a lot of
Jake Hower:time having to go through the manual.
Jake Hower:And I'm sure you've probably you've gone through and picked out some
Jake Hower:shortcuts that they can pick up.
Dave Dugdale:Yeah it's, I pretty much go through everything that's in the manual.
Dave Dugdale:So you don't have to read it.
Dave Dugdale:I talk about, how long it takes to charge the battery and all that stuff.
Dave Dugdale:I go through all that stuff that the manual talks about.
Dave Dugdale:And a lot of things, and the manual is 350 pages long.
Dave Dugdale:And it's really biased towards photography, so it
Dave Dugdale:doesn't help you out much.
Dave Dugdale:You only have one or two chapters on the video, so it's not much of a help.
Dave Dugdale:So that's why I created the course.
Dave Dugdale:Because when I create more advanced courses, I don't want
Dave Dugdale:to say, hey, go read the manual.
Dave Dugdale:Instead of just, hey, watch this course.
Dave Dugdale:And then it's a prerequisite to more advanced courses I'm going to be making.
Jake Hower:Fantastic.
Jake Hower:I'm looking forward to the to the T3i course.
Jake Hower:I'll be getting that straight away.
Jake Hower:All right, Dave.
Jake Hower:Again, thanks very much for coming on this episode.
Jake Hower:You've shared absolute gold throughout listeners.
Jake Hower:I hope you've enjoyed that episode.
