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

Iam senegalese. I am writing and I have a big idea that I believe in. Don’t know how to sell it, how to make contact with Netflix or producers but I believe that I will see my work produced. What’s sure is that Im not gonna give up. Thank you for this video full of profits for each of us.
Never give up! Keep working, soldier!
@@DoctorCyan thank U bro
Copyright your script, workshop it with friends, work on other samples, look into finding a literary agent/manager. You'll get there
There is something that I do not understand. And first of all, thank you for this interview, it has been a tremendous help. Ok, now my question: If the process of selecting a good script is so rigorous; Why are 90% of movies, at least in Hollywood, so basic, cliché, and repetitive?
Greed. They are terrified of disrupting the market, so, they follow trends that shouldn't be so saturated like vampires, whatever it is at the time, to maximize profits. But, only the risk takers make the really big bux so we're stuck in a cycle of something great coming out and then people cloning it for years after
@@nailinthefashion Exactly
They don't want to take risks.
What do you think? Please post a comment below.
This inspired me
Fantastic workshop covering nuances end to end
Thanks for sharing this workshop interview.
Film courage is a Film school
Best wishes
Without seeing daily Film courage conversation, I do not get sleep really. It is like eating food daily
Congratulations
Very informative and has again motivated me to finish this first script.
Nice! A full featured set of interviews. These folks are great advisors and sages.
And just in time for helping me write episode 2 of my Viking/dragon TV show!
best of luck on your project!
@@brandonrichards8572 You're welcome to see the pilot if you're willing to offer feedback, which I need the most.
Albert how's your series coming? I'd like to see it
Such a great interview again. It helps he is a very nice person - so he's right, you need to like the character.
blessings!
You're a great interviewer. I love seeing all the writers loosen up as the interview goes on and it usually gets more personal along the way.
The Film Courage youtube channel is basically film school!! thank you!
It shows when one is comfortable in their own skin and sharing insight, authentic smart people.
thx for this
Please, please explain, why other's creative success does not influence mine 🥺 I've been struggling with this fear for a few years and I need strong arguments why I shouldn't. I want to finally be free.
When you come up with an amazing idea and it turns out to be already published by someone else, making them successful, it's like a punch in the guts.
When someone's work is chosen to be published instead of yours, one's success directly threatens your success. The video mentions, how competitive business is that, doesn't it?
Artists constantly have to make more and more original works, to be remembered by the audience, by surprising them, or else the work will sink in the sea of others.
So you not only compete for a chance to be published, but for the audience's attention and love.
54:30 interesting! 🤔👍
Real experience in the field of screen writing. Thanks.
Hi FC, can you ask people from the industry how they think ChatGPT will impact or how it is impacting the whole story development phase.
Excellent interview!

Me too ❤️
@@carolinecaro1320 Have good time with Film Courage
Thanks!
Thank you Andrew! Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones!
Most days, most weeks, most months is pure failure until one opportunity happens that changes all. Its one opportunity that changes all.

My most favourite Interviewer ever
He is very in touch with the common principles among all spiritually empowering esoteric philosophies
I'd like to hear some of these people explain how to get round the woke wave in the film industry right now.
We have people who were already established, and don't have to pander to P.C messages. Or don't have to worry about their choice of words in dialogue. Quentin is a good example. But how do people starting out get in the mix without having to write P.C etc
Interesting question, but this guy seems to want to write about how the hippie 60's was just really great, which is kinda where some of the woke stuff came from, so I don't think he would be a good guy to ask! My guess is just try and do something as authentic as possible, and look at the film Tar, that doesn't seem that woke and so maybe the tide is changing a bit?
I have “memories” not just stories… and I’m alcoholic, don’t push me to hard
Master class. Can he marry me? ❤️
Write, not craft. Be specific.
You win!
This guy sounds like the worst example of modern Hollywood writers and their constipated ethics about what people are allowed to write about. He has problems with Nightcrawler and Mad Men? lmao.
If its draining, you're in the wrong line of work buddy. Persistence everyone in hollywood gets with cocaine or antidepressants. But you sort of have to be born with creativity.
Yeah this guy doesn't know what he is talking about
