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/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

Here is our full interview with Jason - ua-cam.com/video/sxR8EJnMKkE/v-deo.html
The guy taking to comedy out of the joke is hilarious in itself.
Jason is one guest that always has me jotting down a page of notes. More Jason!
Some uploads ago, a tip was asking: what is their goal? What is their flaw?
That's been such a huge tool for me from writing stories to making D&D characters, and these 2 are the flipside to that.
Always learn something practical and clear on these uploads!
This is gold, thanks so much
Love this content.
Also, I like the fact the fact that this channel was started on May 1, 2009 because that’s the month I was born way back in 2001.
The first question just blew my mind. Because I am rewatching The Office for the gazillion time and it occurred to me that while the story and the scene are pretty realistic and real-simple-life like (which of course is the reason we all love it) but the characters are not that real, it even occurred to me that they are less realistic than in any other sitcom such as How I Met Your Mother (which was unexpected because it's not that customary to think that of such show). Because watching The Office by the 3rd or 4th season you find yourself thinking " Would Dwight (or Jim) that we know by now would do that?" But of course in the case of The Office it totally works because those are cumulative characters serving to mock idiosyncrasy of everyday life.
This was one of my favorites for sure! He gave me everything I needed
Exactly what I needed right now. Excellent piece.
Certainly, Sir Jason's designing tips of character formation for story is the most practical, essential and complete guide, coming to know for the first time. The questionnaire is the best way. Immense thanks to both Mr.Jason and Film courage.
Sometimes, suddenly, some heavenly tips appear from some interview. I watch daily FC as I eat daily.
it's crazy how the world works sometimes. This morning I was working on a pivotal character for my story so this came at exactly the right time! Thanks
Thank you. Another gem! 💜
My problem as a writer has been that I can make up great elements to a story, but I have no idea how to put them together.
I'll come up with a great plot but no characters, a well-built universe but no plot, or great characters and _nothing for them to do._
And while I try--really try--to take those disparate parts and make a cohesive whole, but rarely are these separate parts compatible. Frankly, I'm shocked I ever wrote my last script at all.
Thank you! So helpful since i find this so hard.
Love this guy.
Makes sense. These are questions I asked myself years ago to understand who I was.
“What is this main character’s drive?”
THIS!
Thank you for the video 😊
I’m going to rewatch this on May 4th.
this channel needs 1mil, so many useful nuggets of info :D
…holy shit, this was helpful.
I like that Guy. I bet he gets that a lot. haha
Loved this!👍
Neat
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like he’d be really fun to play a ttrpg with
The 2 questions:
What would my character never do?
What is my character's drive?

"Before I start, I must see my end.
Destination known, my mind’s journey now begins.
Upon my chariot, heart and soul’s fate revealed.
In time, all points converge, hope’s strength re-steeled.
But to earn final peace at the universe’s endless refrain,
We must see all in nothingness... before we start again."

--Diamond Dragons (series)
This is a great way to write complex, deep, and rich characters that are pitifully boring and depressing.
@5:50 Hey....most people are afraid of religion. Came to edit: when I can't sleep, I awake....because God, my Lord and Savior...wants me to fulfill my purpose.
@@cruxofthecookie I'm afraid of religion. Have you seen what it has done?
You know who isn't afraid of religion?
Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
@@Batflecks You know how people say it's not the gun, it's who's holding the gun? It's not religion. It's the people who twist religion to serve their evil designs for mankind. If you can't get around them to get to God then who's the bigger person, you or them? If they're standing between you and God, then who's closer to God, you or them? We enjoy our lives and we have peace of mind. Can you honestly say the same? If we're wrong, we get to nap out for eternity. If you're wrong, your eternity will not be restful! I never read follow-up comments, so save your hatred and mocking for someone else.
@@markforster6457 Nah. I won't. I'm extremely devoted. I'm not the most devout, but man! When things go South, I call on God.
@@Batflecks Nope. In my life, calling on Jesus has been very good for me. I'm not proud; but I am devoted to Jesus.
