Inspiration- Cinematography

Cinematography was always a subject of film-making that highly interested me, and after watching multiple self made short films and people on Youtube such as DSLRGuide it only made me want to try it more. Kold is a great source of inspiration when it comes to cinematography and the unique transitions that he uses. Kold gained a major following upon the release of his Hawaii edit, where through the use of his innovitive transitions he displayed his level as a filmaker. DSLRGuide almost relgiously follows a philosophy in which he explains that, 'It is what is in front of and behind the camera which is more important than the camera itself' telling us that it does not matter how expensive of the gear you are using, if you, yourself as a filmaker isn't competent enough then it won't make your content any better. He proves this himself by realsing guides into filmaking and films most of his videos on a Canon Rebel T3i (considered outdated in terms of the camera market) and still manages to compose beautifly crafted short videos. It is because of people like this and the cinmatograpic reels they make which attracts me to doing filmaking and possibly pursuing it as a carrer.
