Because of the high quality of your content, as well as your self-deprecating humor, I never noticed your "weak" videographer skills. You are one of my favorites. Well done, sir.
Loved the references to Step Brothers at the end. The office looks great.
You guys are a great team, like Jean Claude Van Damme & Jean Claude Van Damme in Double Impact.
The best duo
Sooo good
Level-up achieved!
The author does like to from scratch, kzhead.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Dude. Drew fixed your hat shadow!
An impossible feat!
We need more of this team! Great collab on this, following Drew now and looking forward to going through his content.
Yes - stayed until the end "Blooper" segment.... Great work guys!
Turned out great! Drew really does a great job with studio setup stuff.
I'm here because of wittworks. He's here because of you. We've discovered the KZhead circle of life. 👋
Welcome to Studio Greatness!
Thanks for sharing this. Also I received by Bosch dust collection adapter today and made the first cut. Keep up the great work your doing.
Nice Stepbrothers Reference!!!
Man. It's been so cool watching you grow from a small channel to where you are now. I think your first "ultimate workbench" was the first video that caught my attention. Sad that you had to leave that guy behind... You're doing great work here man. It's inspiring. Keep it up!
Great to see Drew has been busy. Had been checking his channel and he hadn’t been putting out anything. I love to see some of my favorite woodworkers collaborate.
You've taken it up a notch for sure. Looking forward to seeing how you use this space. Love what you did with the wall with the 1x3's, I may have to do something like that in one of my rooms.
Cool video as usual. Big fan of the goofing around at the end. Reminds me of my friends and I on breaks at work. 😅. Also, watching your business evolve is pretty inspiring and encouraging. 💪🏾💯
Wow what a difference! Great job.
Nice setup. A lot of people dont realize how much goes into making a set for recording, between the lights, mics, and the rest of the gear. Not saying one HAS to have all of this for great content, BUT in my opinion it makes a big difference and i can appreciate it.
Thank you for this video! Definitely gave me some idea's for videos I'm working on shooting
I think the space turned out great! I did something similar with my shop (as far as lighting is concerned) and I think it makes a huge difference. One thing, if I might humbly suggest, is to add smart switches / outlets for the lighting. That way when you are staging shots you can turn off and on different lights from one place and don't have to keep walking back and forth to do so. For my shop as an example, I used to have to turn the lights for filming on at the back of each light, the colored accent light with a phone app, and the overhead shop lights from the switches on the wall. Now I have one box with a grid of buttons to be able to toggle different lights on and off, plus, one button I can press that sets up a shot for filming (turn off all overhead lights and turn on camera and accent lights). Anyway, nice work and nice collaboration!
3 kids?! Dude! You and the wife been busy! Congrats! I think I remember when you guys were preggo with your first kid?? As for your new filming space; greatness doesn't stop at the shop. We seek greatness from everything we do in our life, cooking, cleaning, self care, and all the little things that make up our lives. The setup looks great and it'll give you options to create new content and grow your channel; and thats what its all about, growing and learning and wanting to be better.
Did we just become best friends?
😂😂 fell off the john laughing
Should have been the cold open!!!
I absolutely LOVE these videos y’all did together! Please do more!
You two could have been brothers. :/
Q: What Drew you to Travis? 😐
Giving us all things to implement. As a small channel, aspiring to growth, im thankful for this kind of content
Room looks great and you two guy together made a great video would love to see more of this
Wow, this looks great! I can hardly wait to set up the garage I’m building for video!
Gets a like almost immediately for the Step Brothers reference. Keep up the good work
Enjoyed both videos, thanks for sharing
You guys make a great team. I look forward to more collaborations n the future. See you in the next installment.
Nice job Travis and Drew. You two play well together. Thanks for sharing!
Travis, your new studio looks awesome, man!!!! Look at your progress.... I remember when you were a little grasshopper....😆 🤣 😂
LOVE the ending!
Well done. The lighting is dramatically better. BTW, really like the homage to Zaphod Beeblebrox (whether intentional or not) in the opening.
Love the Stepbrother outtakes 😂
Awesome video. There was a lot of greatness in that shop. I love how on both videos each other blamed the other for not really working. Keep up the great work. 👽
It’s always his fault.
Nice work! 🎉 And, great video. Your initial intuition about echo was spot on though. There's a fair bit. Some wall treatments would make it easier to listen to.
The studio looks great. The sound is IMO still pretty lively with a little "sustain" hanging on at the ends of sounds. It's not quite echoing but it could stand to be deadened a little more. A good test is to clap two small boards together a few times while recording, play it back and decide for yourself. That will really demonstrate the rate of the sound decay. At the same time, there's no need to be anechoic chamber dead.
Hopefully not every video is shot in the new studio. It is cool, but i would still like the shop videos.
Oh for sure, this is just for some different types of videos. The garage/shop is still the main focus
Lumber on a catwalk in a box store? Huh? 20 or so years from now, you’ll be in a bigger space and someone will move in there. They’ll redecorate, pull the wood off the wall and see the hidden phone box / outlet. They go, what the hell is this and take it to a museum. Great job my man! 🇨🇦 - can’t wait to see the first bunk bed video with all that space for activities!
That box store was definitely Menards. I've been on those catwalks a time or two.
So funny! And great info. Love it!
Great video. Loved it. So much insight for us uneducated filmers.
"Have you WATCHED my channel?" 🤣😂🤣
Looks really nice 👍 I just built a slatted wall for my studio, but i did mine horizontally. That way, it draws the eye to me, as I film in a corner.
Bunk beds?! Shoulda been the cold open. Great video. Really shows how some paint and those slats can turn a beige hole into a nice production studio
looks nice! :) if echo ever becomes a problem, you could also try a different mic. lav or condenser mics pick up freakin everything. many dynamic mics would be better at not picking up the echo, but they would probably have to be in the shot, right in your face.
You are almost done. Buy a sofa and a couple of easy chairs that can be used in a recording, if you wish. They should be as big and fluffy with cloth, not leather. Normally they will sit along an off wall. Why? to help with softening the sound. There is still a lot of slap in that room. Also buy some drapes, not curtains and hang on the windows. All this can be used or second hand as long as it will look good on camera. You might want to consider getting an audio digital recorder and a mic boom for voice over. Measure the distance that you typically hang the mic on your chest and use the same mic on the mic boom. This will make anything you record in the room mix perfectly with voice overs. I had to explain this to the CBS show Numbers were they did a lot of voice overs in the series. Luckily they cleaned it up for syndication. Whenever possible record audio with the corner of the room behind you. These are all subtle things which will make a difference. I think I would add a soft room fill light to soften the contrast, just a shade. Keep it sharp, but it's a little too sharp. I hope this will help. Be safe.
A little tweak for the blank wall... Vols Smokey Gray mural. Now we're talkin'!!!
Set layout is a royal pain in the butt. There's some good tips and consideration in here. Thanks. Oh, and the set turned out nice, too.
LOVE it Travis!!!
This is an awesome set up
Awesome advice 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing this. Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊❗️
Recently started watching your videos and they are great!
That ending was awesome
Great video. I am currently building a channel myself and I know how much work goes into it. Your video is interesting and informative.
Yeah representing San Antonio with Wittsorks baby! My hometown, but now I’m in Houston where Travis was from if I’m not mistaken.
Whoop!
hahahaha love the ending! Too bad you guys didn't have movie quality Chewbacca masks to finish it out! Space looks incredible! Love watching you rebuild your whole empire in a new space. Can't wait for you to get back on schedule with all the fun builds!
awesome job guys!
One thing you have to do is that standing desk top. It makes sense that the top makes it usable, but you have to make a nice (live edge?) top for that and make it visually appealing as well as functional.
First of all, I totally agree with Drew's take on having a dedicated "flip it on and record" space. However, I wonder why you went to the trouble of staining the wood only to wash it out with the colored leds. I would vote to use the light color on the opposite wall that compliments the wood stain. The wood keeps it in the 'shop' space.
Great feedback! I’ll experiment with that
Film school 101, right? I don't know, I didn't go. LOLOLOL! Also funny is Spencer (Insider Carpentry) just mentioned how he gets dragged in the comment when he says heighTH 😂
My two favorite creators in a single video. Nice!
Looks cool. Run your cords over the t-bar. Easy fix.
Love these types of videos! You still have some echo, but switching from Lav mics to a Sennheiser Shotgun mic will solve that for you
None of this is something I’ll ever do or even need to know but I still found the video fun to watch. Very interesting.
Awesome! I’d just add that a more little audio absorption would make the room “studio perfect”, at least on some of the off-camera walls.
Love the "Step Brothers" reference!
I will say it does look a little weird and different but I’m excited to see how you evolve and use the space to its fullest potential
awesome ending!!!!!
so much room for activities...great video!!!
Hell yes we deserves to see that clip at the end hahahaha
look up scissor clamps. they go on the bracing of the drop ceiling and can hold some non heavy lights. keeps things off the ground but also can be moved easily. looks good!
This has to be one of my favorite videos, just because of the chemistry between you two! So glad y’all paired up and have become “best friends!” Please do more collabs together! “TwittWorks” was hilarious!😂😂
LOL... missed commenting first. That sucks.
@@mariondorsett 😂😂
STOP ENCOURAGING HIS SLANDER OF MY BRAND 🤪
@@wittworks 😂😂😂😂 It was hilarious! It even made YOU smile! 😁
@@wittworks How do I get a TwittWorks t-shirt?
Looks great!
I really enjoyed this vid, Travis. You should invite Drew over more often for collaborations. The space looks awesome already. Now, all you need to do is start making even more content 😎😋
Not a fan of the "colorful" background but looks great otherwise. Those slats made a HUGE difference and look great ... just hit them with a bit of white light and the stain will provide a nice warm look.
Just got the Bambu P1P a week or so ago! How do you like your X1?!
Really nice room but I have to disagree that you don't need acoustic treatment, can totally hear the reverb when you are talking, DIY acoustic panels would be good content for a future video too
Nce setup. Do you have a link to the shelving units you used?
I derive so much validation from this
Drew is awesome.
I’ll send you $20 later
@@wittworks 👍 Donate it to a worthy cause.
BTW, I do realize you weren't really going to send me $20 😂
Why are you wasting time with this when you could be designing the dust collector chute for my 12” Hercules sliding miter saw? 😊
I know I know...lol
Phillip we talked about it on the trip! He needs to do it asap
Wittworks is a great channel.. Drew has a really interesting delivery and yeah, he's kinda witty.
What's next...makeup? I appreciate what goes into doing all this, but ultimately I subscribed, have purchased plans, and enjoyed your shop furniture builds without ever knowing or worrying about angles, lighting, soft lenses, etc. I guess I'm just pragmatic. It seems everyone is more concerned with Scorsese and Coppola movie production now than the content. So, before all the straw man replies...Travis and other content creators can do their thing. I just hope the focus of what initially made people watch and subscribe does not get lost in the goal of over production.
Travis, you might want to return the make up I bought you.
That's a quote and a half, "It wouldn't be a DIY project without crappy wood and walnut stain."
you guys are adorable... I wish I had friends damnit now I'm sad 😔
DUST COLLECTION! Yeah.
Tacos, I like how he thinks!
You went to menards!
Just curious, what is the brand of shelving the 3D printers ended up on?
from menards
You guys are ready for the Catalina Wine Mixer. I hear it's a big deal!
It's the f&#ckin' CATALINA WINE MIXER
Where do you buy your racks/rack parts from?
Menards! They have tons
@@ShopNation, figures closest one is about 3-1/2 hours away. They sell piece parts and such?
Where on earth did you find the small racking??
You ought to collaborate with house of timber for your sign.
one of your better videos 🥰
Thought Drew was Pete Davidson for a minute lol they could be brothers
Hite is correct- height not heigth. Length however... is. Maybe that's why we have a tendency to do that.
Thw new space looks nice and all, but I would rather watch you build things and go through your process than stand and talk in a studio. Just my opinion. I like your videos the way they are.
I think your "weak" camera skills are what made ur channel better, Most people who do DIY projects just want the facts and how to build something, we dont need purple and pink lights in a studio, why does everyone do this, so annoying
Thank you?
I agree, now it looks like EVERY podcaster/youtuber background.
@@ShopNation You should know better than most, If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. There was zero complaints about ur channel quality, everyone who watches, watches for you. We don’t care that ur face was a different shade of white in the clip before hand,, it looks more like you’re filming true crime video or something.
What camera are you using?? Most important part, i'd argue
Not a fan on the new setup. Too dark. But what do I know?
