1
If you're planning to travel soon, this video might be for you.
2
You don't need to be a pro for your travel vlogs to feel cinematic.
3
I recently travelled to Japan and Hong Kong.
4
I captured some beautiful shots just by being a bit more intentional with how I film.
5
So in this video, I want to share a few things that helped me bring that cinematic feel to my travel vlogs.
6
If you want to capture clean cinematic footage, you want to be there early.
7
Like I mean very early, especially if you're going to a popular place.
8
Mornings give you softer lighting and usually less crowds
9
which means you have a bigger chance to get a clean shot without waiting for the right moment.
10
Depending on the location, sometimes sunset could be good as well.
11
In this clip, I landed on the art island just as the sun was setting
12
and most people were just about to leave.
13
It was the perfect moment to capture this beautiful shot.
14
Since we're talking about cinematic clocks here, a rule that I try to follow is show, don't tell.
15
I usually approach this in two different ways.
16
First, using B-roll to set the scene and tone.
17
Like in this shot, I use a very scenic shot with calm music to create that relaxed, quiet morning vibe, like waking up on an island with nothing but the nature around you.
18
Second, when talking to the camera, avoid stating exactly what's happening.
19
A common way of vlogging is just saying where you're going and then just cut to wherever you are.
20
Honestly, I do that quite often as well.
21
But when you leave a bit of space for the visual to carry the story, it can create curiosity and naturally draws the viewer in.
22
This is an example of how I did that.
23
Next, I passed by the yellow pumpkin again, or should I say the invisible pumpkin.
24
Not because I wanted to check it out again but because it was on my way to my next destination.
25
Along the way I stumbled across some quirky art sculptures and this is why I love this island so much.
26
A few months ago I went to this photo exhibition back in Sydney and I was completely captivated by the artist's work.
27
So when I found out that here's a gallery here, I knew I had to visit.
28
But not because of his photos but because of this.
29
Oh wait I mean this.
30
As you can see I didn't even mention the place once.
31
I was like slowly building up to it.
32
It's kind of like peeling an onion.
33
Okay now we know it's better to show and not tell but how do we actually do that when we are filming?
34
Let's talk about the kind of shots that can help achieve that.
35
For me I usually start with a wide establishing shot, something that gives the viewer a bit more context of where I'm at.
36
But before that I like to capture a few different shots
37
that can sort of like bring the viewer on the journey with me.
38
There are four main types of shots that I tend to use.
39
Number one is POV shots.
40
These help the viewer to feel they are walking with me.
41
It's a simple but effective way to make this experience feel more immersive.
42
Number two is third-person shots.
43
This shows that I'm actually in the environment and I find they work especially well when there's an interesting background on location.
44
They're also great for transitions.
45
Number three, still shots.
46
These focus more on the surroundings.
47
I like using them to slow things down and let the viewer really take in the emissary of a place.
48
Number four, I don't really know how to name it so ChatGPT suggest me to call this personal interest shot.
49
These are things that genuinely catch my attention.
50
For example, I'm a cat parent.
51
So whenever I see cats while traveling, I naturally want to film them.
52
Little moments like this can add personality to your vlogs, which makes it a bit more you.
53
If you want to learn some easy shot and composition, check out my other video where I talk a bit more about that.
54
The personal interest shots does require some awareness and intention which leads me to the next point, planning.
55
But before we get into that I just need to go right now.
56
I'll see you guys in a bit.
57
Okay just before we move on I just want to throw in this bonus shot which is the reflection shot.
58
I notice I tend to do it quite often when going through my footage.
59
I just find it super cool.
60
It's a bit subtle
61
and you need to be a bit more observant to find this kind of shot
62
but that's kind of the whole point right like be more
63
aware of your surroundings that's how you can find some interesting angles and shots
64
and we are back where were we again oh yeah planning although you can't always predict what's gonna happen especially
65
when you're traveling
66
but a little bit of research can go a long way
67
to be honest i didn't plan as much as i wanted to
68
but looking back now the parts
69
that i did plan worked out to be better it felt a lot less messy like even just having
70
that rough plan in your head can make a big difference For example, the topic of this video is the art island and I found the bathroom to be super interesting.
71
So I used that as my opening shot rather than starting from the chronological order
72
which is from Osaka going all the way to the island.
73
Just that one small decision made the video a bit more intentional and a bit more interesting.
74
Okay, last but not least, let's talk about gear.
75
For me, it has to meet these three things.
76
light, quick and easy to use without sacrificing too much quality.
77
Of course the definition can vary from person to person.
78
For me I personally am fine with carrying a mirrorless camera
79
so this is why I got my main camera which is the a6700 with two other lenses.
80
If you want to learn more about my gear setup I
81
did a whole video talking about it you can watch it over here
82
but if you're just starting out
83
and looking for a budget option I will highly recommend the
84
DJI Osmo Pocket 3 especially the Creator Combo it's probably one of the best all-in-one option
85
that you can get right now but it's super easy to use very lightweight
86
and the best thing like super compact this makes it perfect for filming in places like Hong Kong in Japan
87
which is where everywhere is like super crowded.
88
Like the only downside I would say is the battery.
89
It doesn't last that long, but in the creator combo, it comes with an extra battery add-on where you can just plug and go, which I found it to be quite useful.
90
Otherwise, just yeah, be mindful of the battery life.
91
And honestly, if you're not ready to infest in the camera, like just use your phone.
92
It's a great starting point.
93
Phones nowadays are so powerful that can make really good footage.
94
For example, the latest iPhone, you can even shoot in log where you can play around with the colors in post.
95
So those were the things that helped my travel vlogs to feel more cinematic.
96
But honestly, the most important thing isn't about getting the perfect shot, it's about enjoying the moment and immersing yourself in the experience.
97
It's okay to miss that shot on your camera as long as you're capturing it in your memory.
98

Phát âm cần chú ý
Người nói dùng 24 dạng rút gọn, ví dụ you're, don't, I'm. Hãy nói theo dạng ngắn đúng như bạn nghe.
- Âm “sh” và “zh”: intentional /ɪnˈtɛnʃənəl/, reflection /ɹɪˈflɛkʃən/, destination /dɛstɪˈneɪʃən/
- Từ dài — đặt trọng âm cho đúng: kinematic /kɪn.əˈmæt.ɪk/, intentional /ɪnˈtɛnʃənəl/, chronological /ˌkɹɑnəˈlɑd͡ʒɪkəl/, emissary /ˈɛmɪˌsɛɹi/, curiosity /ˌkjʊɹ.iˈɑ.sə.ti/
Những âm người Việt thường gặp khó:
- Cụm phụ âm cuối — đọc đủ từng âm, đừng nuốt âm cuối: surroundings /səˈɹaʊndɪŋz/, immerse /ɪˈmɜɹs/, infest /ɪnˈfɛst/, observant /əbˈzɝvənt/, compact /kəmˈpækt/
- Âm /tʃ/, /dʒ/ và /ʒ/ — tiếng Việt không có, đừng đọc thành “ch” hay “gi”: footage /ˈfʊtɪd͡ʒ/, chronological /ˌkɹɑnəˈlɑd͡ʒɪkəl/, sculpture /ˈskʌlpt͡ʃɚ/, genuinely /ˈd͡ʒɛn.ju.ɪn.li/
- Âm /æ/ — mở miệng rộng hơn âm “e”: kinematic /kɪn.əˈmæt.ɪk/, captivate /ˈkæptəˌveɪt/, compact /kəmˈpækt/, sacrifice /ˈsæk.ɹɪ.faɪs/, relax /ɹɪˈlæks/

- Bắt đầu ở tốc độ 0,75×, nói đuổi từng câu, rồi quay lại tốc độ bình thường khi đã quen.
- Ghi âm giọng mình rồi so với bản gốc, chú ý các từ như viewer, pumpkin, creator.
Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
