Shooting a Commercial on NO BUDGET (Canon EOS R VLOG)
Hey guys! I recently got the opportunity to AD a commercial with my friend Aaron. As soon I we had shoot dates set I knew I was going to vlog this experience for you guys.
As the titles states there was no budget for this film. Aaron's dad pastors a church and we were doing it to help them out. The big take away from this vlog is to use what your resources. We borrowed gear from friends and pulled favors for locations from more friends and the end result came out looking as if thousands were spent making it. If you have the vision you don't need a lot to make it happen.
This was a rare occasion where everything actually went as planned. So much so that we ended up being about two hours ahead of schedule. It was a super lit day and the process couldn't have been more enjoyable.
