►WE USE THIS SOUND RECORDER (AMAZON) - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
►Stuff we use:
LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - amzn.to/2tbtmOq
AUDIO
Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post amzn.to/425k5rG
Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/3WEuz0k
LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - amzn.to/2u5UnHv

How do you decide what to write?
If the story pulls me in and takes me to places where I laugh or cry sometimes both. That provides the motivation to write about it.
I write Whatever I'm patient about that day
Thanks for the content...

First to arrive! Love you guys 🔥❤️🎥
Thank you! Much love! 🔥❤️🎥
#FilmCourage -- We need to work towards an Industry were Common Sense dictates what is a good story idea, instead of the incredibly confusing, frustrating and ridiculous rigmarole we have today. -- The procedures we have already don't work; they CLEARLY don't work. --
What does that even mean
@@FranticAnimations If you don't understand what common sense is, then you're part of the problem.
@ I know what it means, I just don't understand what YOU mean.
@@FranticAnimationsI think he’s talking about the high concept motif we’ve been burdened with ever since Michael Cimino almost bankrupted United Artists with Heaven’s Gate. Studios are too scared to make movies for smart people anymore.
