    What step do you find yourself struggling with the most? Which areas do you feel most proficient in?

    I have been a photographer for decades and stumbled into videography almost by accident. 8 some odd years later, I still find myself slipping, almost too easily, into the VERY mindset you describe: “that is such a great (fill in the blank) video, there is no way I will ever get there!” This has been very inspiring and helpful! Thank you! I’ll keep plugging along…and creating!

    No background music, no loud and euphoric speaking, no switching between different locations, voices and styles. like all the other UA-cam videos out there. But nevertheless it wasn't boring at all just to listen to you like a podcast. Some people hit it with their kind of talking and at the other hand there are people you get boring off like 60sec into the videos.
    that's so interesting to see.
    Really helpful and deep meaning video, thx a lot ^^

    Great advice Griffin!!! Your story about Rob reminds me of my buddy Matt. He emailed me out of the blue last year asking if he could just come shoot for us for free, just to learn and hang around us. Dude is so passionate about filmmaking and wants to learn and create. It showed a lot of initiative on his part. Long story short, Matt is now one of my go-to dudes and we've become great friends.
    Taking initiative is huge and shouldn't be overlooked. As the owner of a small production co, I place a lot more value on someone who approaches me with a great attitude, heaps of optimism and a desire to learn and get better. Can't tell you how many times I get a "Sup. I'd like to shoot for you guys". Those DM's never get a reply.
    EDIT: I have this same video on my production schedule for the channel. Damn you for beating me to it :D

    GRIFFIN!!! This video is worth more than so many other videos on UA-cam about what it's actually like to be a professional at this! Such a good reflection on the truths of how to get to where we all want to be. Thanks for sharing this, it's highly valuable and worth reflecting on.

    So much important information in your video. I wish I had found filmmaking when I was a young man and in good health, it would have definitely been a career path that I would have pursued. Nevertheless, I am happy doing what I can and watching good quality videos such as yours, Great job dude, love you work 👍

    Great content as always! The teamwork side is one that I think is great. Early on in my career I struggled with viewing everyone as competition rather than investing in the community of creatives and recognizing how we can all help each other grow.

    So true that we tend to just try to grow in skill but forget about other important things. Or at least o do…
    I have been thinking about this before but this just confirms that i need to invest into building a team, work with others and build relationships.
    Thanks for all the input and effort you put into this!!

    Fantastic video Griffin, I think you hit the nail on the head, especially in terms of the pyramid order of components. It's true, you can be really creative but if you don't take time to learn the technical skills and professionalism needed to provide a foundation and a support for your creative ideas, it's harder to stand out and achieve those filmmaking goals. Also big shoutout Rob Trent, love that :) one of the hardest working people I know!!

    Absolutely love this video! Might steal this concept as an artist and make a HOW TO BECOME A UA-camR | 5 KEY STEPS video someday! :) Still need some more C70 tutorials though since I'm only just getting started on that pyramid! haha More specifically, would you recommend Rode NTG5 as an on-camera mic for the C70? Or any other XLR on-camera solution for run and gun (and using Rode Wireless for 3.5mm backup at the same time?)

    • @GriffinConway

    super random question, but I see a lot of people shooting 144º shutter angle instead of 180º. Any particular reason? flicker?
