    Stuff we use:
    CAMERA - This is the camera we have used to film 90+% of our interviews (over 200 interviews and counting) It continues to be our workhorse - amzn.to/2u66V1J
    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/2t1n2hx
    Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
    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
    COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - amzn.to/2t1M67Z
    EDITING - We upgraded our editing suite this year and we’re glad we did! This has improved our workflow and the quality of our work. Having new software also helps when we have a problem, it’s easy to search and find a solution - goo.gl/56LnpM

    This man is fascinating, and yet, humble and calm. The interviewer is also great, she knows how to extract the best from the guests, and has the same calm, collected energy. What a class in writing!

    Speaking of "waxing poetic" the asides done in 1883 by the character, Elsa, are some of my favorite. The narration done by that actress along with the visuals with each of those moments are beautiful as a whole.

    This was so good. I immediately thought of Madonna's "Candy Perfume Girl" as an example of Absence of Field. She said she wrote it using magnetic poetry and the song literally makes no sense: "Blue wish window seas
    Speak delicious fires…".

    I always write like my characters would talk, according to their personalities, personal experiences, comfort zone levels in that moment and knowing when they feign towards other characters. They have their own little jargon too, not all of them but some do, because that's the most charming about them, their way of seeing the world around themselves and how to cope with all the anvils that life hurls at them in their general direction. I quite enjoy it a lot since most characters are recognized instantly by that without the narrator or another character saying the name of the other one out-loud 🤔 I guess I'm masterizing something but I never went to a writer class nor anything, and these videos makes me think of how much I learnt on my own by being writer without going to one single class about "how to writer".

      Every writing class, every writing teacher says, “Show Don’t Tell,” but Jack’s Method is the ONLY way I found through that maze. He used to make me recite his rules of “Image Moment.” There’s your clue. Image Moment Saves Writers Lives❤️❤️❤️

    My fav part of this video was watching her attempt to do the 5 styles as he coached her through it so that we better understand how difficult & interesting it all is. I also love how he used the music metaphor because thats a language I feel I understand better & using these techniques in music was the first thing that came to mind subconsciously(I was thinking about how Yoko Ono makes absurbity into music lol but you also have songs that rely on repetitive hooks etc).
