Why You Shouldn't Storyboard (According to Werner Herzog and Taika Waititi)

More of this kind of thing please :) Film studies, methodology, philosophy, technique, style etc.

A storyboard makes you think in the scene as a series of actions that must be shown, instead of real happenings in real space

I'm cool with you guys branching out from film photography. Just remember to talk about what you guys actually care about!

Absolutely loved this vid. Hope to watch more soon. Excellent pacing and I dug the commentary a ton. Thank you for sharing. You inspired me to work on my own YouTube channel and I hope to see lots more vlogs from you on all topics! Stay safe in these crazy times and thank you again for a great episode!

Glad you're posting new vids again. I hope to see more analog camera presentations. I love those but mainly how YOU present it.

Ah man - what a treat - didn't notice you uploaded until today! Thanks Ian. Love your stuff.

Been watching your videos since the old analogrev days. One of the things I like about your channel is that you're not just about gear and that you delve into other aspects of photography! I'm sure that no matter what kind of videos you make I'll continue to watch them :)

As an animator, I'm giggling over here, because without storyboards, you have NO animation. 3D, 2D or stop motion, we'd have no idea what we were doing without the storyboards. But that's because animation is 100% planned. I totally get what they mean though, and it works amazing for them, especially in the situations they were doing it in (Werner doing a documentary and Taika working with kids) it's more useful to not be bound by storyboards. You just have to be quick on your feet and able to change and have the elbow room to do it. But me here, working to compile storyboards right now, am like, "I could never!" But I totally get what you mean, it's fascinating to see different approaches!

Anyone who thinks art has obligatory rules is unlikely to make anything worthwhile.

glad to see your vid back

Well done. I’m a big fan of this type of videos, and you are very good at it. Keep them coming.

Hi guys! Just wanted to say that I totally support the new direction of focusing on videography as your next subject. One of my most favorite old channels focused on videography/cinematography was Every Frame a Painting. I feel that you and Anne already have the ability to convey your messages in a succinct, articulate way through visuals and storytelling and I can't wait to see your next project!

Lovely video as always

Wonderful work here on display

Great episode like always!

I'll admit, I'm sad to hear you guys will be moving away from film photography as a focus for the channel as that's what brought me here in the first place. On the other hand, it's the unique perspective on the creative process that sets this channel apart from others, and if you guys continue to be passionate in creating content, I'm sure whatever comes out as a result will be just as amazing.

Would be interesting to see a new direction of this channel! I really enjoy your videos (I've watched them all). Expanding your scope of field is always a great idea. Keep it up guys.

I am so sad that this channel doesn't have more followers!

Thanks for the new video, stay safe.
