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

Bill Duke - My 40 Year Career On Screen And Behind The Camera [FULL INTERVIEW|
ua-cam.com/video/odpGdFLT8dQ/v-deo.html
Film Courage What kind of b.s. is this? What word did you bleep out? Was it "nigger"? He just talked about that in one of your videos about the thought police in the book 1984. If he had taken God's name in vain you would have been okay with that right? Sanitize it down so none of us can think for ourselves and form our own opininion. Carefully edit it and script so you put words in his mouth . How bogus is this video?
Bill good stuff I love how you managed to stay low and make a difference...
You know, there can be 100 people in a room and 99 won't believe in you but all it takes is one
YES!!!
The right one
And that 1 person is yourself
Thanos 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Straight outta Gaga’s mouth 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
exactly
Bill Duke was straight dropping JEWELS in this interview. And I was a huge fan of Dallas and Falcon Crest as a kid, and I always wondered how Bill Duke ended up directing so many episodes. That was a cool story about Jane Wyman too.
Nuff respect.
Stand tall.
Your experiences are so common.
I think he is a wise man
Ricardo Coleman me too he is a great actor and I liked his performance in. Car wash and predator! Never knew he directed falcon crest and Dallas! 2 of my favorite shows growing up👏👍😎
Jane wyman : Ronny Reagan's first wife
''your vibe attracts your tribe''
GUESS IM A TRIBE OF ONE.
Powerful. I forget sometimes about the people who want me to succeed, I need to remember them more often.
YYYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAH!
Agreed
Watched a few of these now - the interviewer is really good, very impressed. Bill Duke is in a league of his own - amazing man.
Love Bill Duke. We appreciate your support, thanks for watching.
Id say he would of ripped that AD apart. Iconic character actor! Im Irish and my father once explained to me that he was friends with many black workers in England during the 80s. One day while on lunch my father was walking into a pub and his black colleague pulled him by the arm and said with his tongue in cheek "Paddy I am better than you" then pointed to a dog on the street and said "hes better than both of us" then pointed to the sign on the pub door my father had not noticed that said "No Dogs, No Blacks and no Irish". They both laughed and were friends ever since. He taught me what he learned to respect all people of all races. Some have more power than others and they are terrified of having it taken from them. So they project their fear through racism.
👍👍
Amazing Story! I grew up with racism all around me and I left home and joined the Army, meeting all kinds of people along the way. I too come to realize that we can choose to open our mind or not. Either way we choose the path. I'd be honored to meet him one day. I've met Julia Roberts, Gary Williams and Gunny in person, they felt magickal to me. Others I met not so much. Meeting these three people are forever marked in my heart. He feels like he has that kind of energy too. Thanks for this! Especially since all the horrible stuff said about Hollywood. There has to be some truly good people there too.
Such a beautiful comment Abigail. Thank you for sharing. Love to hear of the way you resonated with Bill's stories. He is a class act. We're fortunate that we have been able to interview him twice. We're still just scratching the surface on this interview. Lots more to come. And we hope you get the chance to meet him.
Thank you Bill Duke for sharing YOUR humanity. Very moving story. And thank you Film Courage for sharing it with us!
We love this one with Bill. It's great to see it resonate with you and others. We are grateful for the extended time that Bill provided us. He agreed to an hour with us then ended up giving us over 2 hours. Excited to share more.
There are people that want to see you fail everywhere - it’s called JEALOUSY!
FC WHAT It’s envy
Thou shall not covet your neighbor's possessions or wife. It's popular now to compare your popularity, wealth and self-worth to other people. It's a sin, and sin makes you feel bad eventually. You only focus on you and your family. And be grateful for the things that are given to you and you will live a comfortable and joyful life.
Yes, and their Ate Up With It!!!!
I think it's more like envy they hate you because they ain't you
YES, it is
I found myself watching all his interviews he has made me look at myself in the mirror.I exercise hate for people when I come across someone that shows me that they are racist I do the same thing to them.when a racist person has made me feel some way the hate spreads to all of which nationality they are. I was raised to love everyone. For some reason I can't control the feeling of people making me feel like my skin color defines me yet I do the same thing and yet I say it depends on the individual but my anger for one always triggers hate for all this is something I will work on and it has caused me to miss out on what could have been great friendships bill you opened my eyes a bit more your so calm and well spoken I've stored a lot of what you have spoke of and ill try and underatand the person alone rather then ones race thanks bill
Be cognizant that there is individuals of other ethnicities that are "white identified" and think/operate in the manner that they are inclusive and will get a "pass." Think about what I am stating.
Barbara k Spanish is a European nationality. Hispaniola was conquered and colonized by the Spaniards. Mexicans are either mixed with African descent or more European descent. Some are a mixture of Mongolian with the other two genetic traces combined. Mexican or any Latin nation isn't quantified to a "race". Just wanted to chime in on that statement.
Open your heart and mind and close your eyes. Racism will be here until the end of time but with our eyes we can miss out on great relationships. Being black and from the deep south I had to learn that at an early age. Luckily I had a solid foundation surrounding me to plant seeds of love and not hate in me. Sad world we live in but continue to work on yourself.
African American people generally hate in retaliation. Hate is not organic with us as a whole. We just despise being treated in such a manner that it seems like we have no other alternative but to return what is given towards us.Otherwise, we would just choose to live in peace and harmony....It really isn't that hard for us to do.But the constant barrage of epitaphs and negativity spewed at us on a daily and continuous basis makes it much more difficult. But,if tomorrow, Caucasian people ceased to exemplify hate towards us.We would be just fine and move forward with love and peace in our hearts. (Hate) is such a waste of all of our precious time. Don't ya think?
Melvin Pruitt why not set an example and lead with love, you show people how to treat you. You have the power to decide if you want to hate or love it is not dependent on the external influence. It depends on YOU!
Bill Duke "The Legend"
Respect to the Legend BILL DUKE✊🔥
Respect
My father was in the music industry and he would always emphasize to me the importance of keeping and never giving up your dignity. When you're involved with "Hollywood", you will get approached by certain people who will present you with gateway proposals that may not be in your best interest or in alignment with your moral constitution, however it is up to you to walk through those doors or turn around and walk away... please understand also that there are angels laced in the fabric the industry, so it's not all bad...
This guy speaks with so much power, it can motivate you in so many ways listening to this guy
His story needs to be on the big screen.
You can say that again
I’m going to direct it. Loved reading his biography, such honesty.
I always love Bill Duke. His work doesn't get enough just due. I love that you give us a chance to hear his knowledge. Your videos are giving me my courage!
To be a good human being is what I strive for everyday. I deal with mean and nasty people by feeling sorry for them.
✊🏾
That's a good way of dealing. I try to be friendly and diplomatic to see if it will change their attitude. But some people don't respect that and seem to want conflict or be too stupid to help avert it.
@@damienholland9244 Not everyone deserves your kindness.
Watched this with tears rolling down. Thank you Mr. Duke, thanks Film Courage.
Bill Duke is a icon... just listening to him discuss his background is very educational... and enlightening he is good at what he does... a helleva director and actor😃
I can't tell if he's recounting his life with pained expression, or if his voice is just raspy.
Either way, this is powerful.
Judge people by there level of integrity not the color of there skin... I will never forget that Mr. Duke. I welcome the opportunity of meeting you soon...
Positive Energy I had to post that that on my fB page. Real quick
How does Bill Duke keep his cool? He says his own name 3 times in the mirror. This man has a ridiculous amount of cool.
And that college story OH MY GOD!!! I AM TEARING UP AGAIN! Bill Duke you are the best and I am beyond thankful that so many great people have been there for you along the way man! Great job man!
Bill Duke is incredible. Great to see your connection to his stories and storytelling.
@@filmcourage Thank you
Glad to see an interview with someone that's actually done something for once. All the other people that show up in these videos that claim to be big (and trust me I did research on them) have either not made anything worth while, or won razzies for the worst screenplay, or have literally not worked on anything at all (at least not that I could find).
We appreciate your feedback and your support of our channel. We interview people on all levels of the business. From those completing their first feature films to those higher up in the film industry. If you are looking for more recognizable faces you may enjoy this video - ua-cam.com/video/xFRgZOhCVLg/v-deo.html
It seems naive of me.. but I really can’t understand how people don’t see themselves in others. Everyone I meet I know is me.. just in a different place and situation. I keep to myself because I am heartbroken the more people I meet who don’t innately know humanity. I am grateful for Bill Dukes story.
Wow. Really heavy stuff. Irony, is lately I've had my first grade teacher on my mind and how her belief in me and life in general, really made a profound difference in my life. So often people just don't grasp the extent and long lasting impact, be it positive or negative, they can have on a person's life. Now that I have adult perspective, I get down now and then cause I never got to thank her and let her know the positive impact she had on my life.
Love this comment Meg. Don't beat yourself up. We are all doing our best. Is it too late now to reach out to your first grade teacher?
BTW, we love the insightful and meaningful comments you leave on our videos from time to time. Thank you.
I had a list of books to read when I finish the one I'm currently in. But Mr. Duke's has been bumped to the top of the list. I gotta read this legend's book! STAT!!!
Dez A let me know some of these books you are reading, please.
@@destinyovbiebo8988 Hey, are you familiar with Goodreads? It's an app/site for bibliophiles. Feel free to add me as a friend (Desiree Atchison). You'll see what books I've read, am reading and books on my to-read list. I'm in the middle of Bill Duke's book now. LOVING IT!!!!
Anytime you see a successful person someone believed in them for them to be there
Not exactly true.
Right very true, agreed👍
@@daishawnhamzahneal3494 someone had to believe, without fans/supporters theres no business or successful career
They believe in themselves, mostly others try to keep them down.
Very intelligent man Bill Dukes
I love him as an actor, I would of love to know him because he looks like such a genuine person.
The nature of this interview was superb, the silence and pauses between his speech left me captivated! Eagerly waiting for the next gem of knowledge he had to offer 💎 well done! This one most definitely moved me deeply.
Love this one. We are glad it found you!
Just to see people who put thumbs down ! Really shows there character SAD 😢
This man reminds me of my favorite uncle I wish he was still here and I wish I would have done more for him.He gave me my greatest lessons he was the smartest man I ever known and far ahead of his time .My uncle hated white people he let that hate eat at him.I was too young to dig deeper .This man represents for me all that my uncle could have done .He was a Pisces as well lThank you Mr.Bill Duke for bring your authentic self ,your work and your wisdom .
He needs a star of Hollywood walk of fame, that’s if he already has one.
ua-cam.com/video/ITyo3-LXyA8/v-deo.html
One of the most beautiful and powerful stories I’ve ever heard. Wow.
This guy is a mesmerizing story teller.
Draws people into his world.
Powerful words spoken by a strong person, great interviewer too!
Would love to meet him.. what a down to earth person. 😘I love the way he looks straight to the interviewer!
Bill Duke is not only a great actor, but a sage!...a complete and blessed sage!...thanks Mr. Duke
...I'm gonna share these with my nephews...
Holy shit this guy has the best stories out there I swear! That national poetry contest story OH MY GOD! Brings tears to my eyes man! I am proud to say I personally am quite colorblind and I am glad to trust that Bill Duke found that in himself as well. We all have suffered but only through forgiveness can we become whole.
Thank you Mr. Duke and Film courage for your insight and honesty. This video has helped me with some social issues with our society in America today and my ancestors struggles.
It’s a blessing to have run across this video because I was battling trust from those in my own community whom I don’t know but had already shut out because of negative actions and gestures from a few. This changed that mentality and train of thought and it let me know everyone is not your enemy and everyone’s intentions is not to harm or hurt you in any manner. I’ll be looking at more videos from this wise man. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. It truly changed my life and my perspective thoughts of others. Prayers to you sir. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have all the respect for this awesome man....Bravo and wonderful interview....!!!!
Hands down one of the best interviews I've ever watched. This man is the living embodiment of wisdom. Thank you sir.
the best line was "see something happens to your racism after that" very powerful statement. We are all people and the rhetoric of hate they are teaching now is only setting us back as a country
Well spoken, articulate, evolved, a real class act
Powerful stories and a great example of changing for the better!
It's interesting when you come to the realization how the interactions of people and events in Bill Dukes life made him the intelligent thought provoking man that he is today. In some instances what was meant to suppress him became his catalyst. The people he expected adversity from, paved the way. Many of us go through our trials in life. that anger us, enlighten us, and prepare us to recognize the complexity of humanity.
Bill Duke is a very wise man. Props to Film Courage to interview him.
This man can tell a story.
Miguel Henry yep
Miguel Henry He has great stories to tell . he is a wonderful person ...had the opportunity to work with him and Amira Baraka on a play in NYC......I am glad that he is not a bitter person
I really appreciate his honesty; there are good people out there. " Hate cannot cure hate, only love can. Awe-inspiring interview.
Thank you Karen and FILM COURAGE
See this is part of why I Love Film Courage... Thank you so much Karen for this episode of FC. we film makers need the encouragement like this. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
“Mack...Mack...Sergeant!!”
Bill Duke was the man in the 1980’s. He and Jesse Ventura were awesome in Predator.
Paraphrasing MLK Jr.'s words here but,... "Judged not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character. "
Gifts were givin and Bill take advantage of it and utilize the gift and combined it to his talents(thru the struggle)...Respect Bill
Bill Duke a true Hollywood legend! Love his interviews as they're always substanitive and make you think. A true Hollywood pioneer!
You had to have been blown away with doing this interview. I LOVE your channel. You’re not afraid to let TRUTH be told.
I have much respect and understanding for Mr. Bill Duke. He is a very intelligent and well spoken individual who has paid his dues in life and the entertainment industry. I can't wait to purchase his book to learn more about him and his experiences!
I wish they would have interviewed this great director, actor an humanitarian in a secluded place where i wouldn't have to keep watching people walk by. The interview is fire Bill Duke is a true legend.
The first time I saw Bill Duke and especially in car wash it was something about this man that went Way beyond his acting because I kept looking at him through the film this looks like a man and the younger man at the time it was like I knew that this man was of knowledge and some wisdom and then looking for more at the same time he look very serious in his rules it's just something about him that's very serious and does not play around and I can see why I said this he's got knowledge about him this brother I'm not surprised to know that he has risen so high and directing and other things because of what I saw in him and his younger life and I don't even know them and I don't even know why I'm explaining it this way what he does seem to have a lot of knowledge is very gifted and I've seen it and few other actors / directorsbut has a black actor I'm sure he's going through a lot I can only imagine especially making it without any other influence if you know what I mean
Wish I had such wisdom. God Bless Bill Duke and thanks for sharing.
Happy girl just keep living. You'll have some wise advice for someone lol.
@@patriciaking7892 Thank you.
I've always had the utmost respect for Bill Duke, he was a great and I'm sure he still is a wonderful actor. I wondered what happened to him when I stop seeing in movies, now I know he got behind the camera...smart.
This guy says so much MORE with his silence and his eyes...those eyes...omg! They have experienced much... 😔
I actually shed some tears.
Powerful interview!
I love this BILL! We all need to love more just Love! Rick Brennan from Change North Philly Love Peace thank for the words of wisdom 333.
Props!! I'm happy that you overcame that crap! God bless you!
Awwww bless your heart sometimes the one you can’t stand is the one that helped you the most of all May God bless you and her too😊💕💕💕
Outstanding! I went to Dutchess Community college too and transferred to Rochester Institute of Technology back in 1982. Kudos to this channel and to Mr. Duke!
Thanks for watching Benjamin. Cheers!
LIFE CHANGING!!! WOW!
The more he speaks, the better I want to be. As a man and a human. Beautiful. The only barrier to success is ourselves. No one can do it for you.
This is a very powerful and moving testimony.
Such wise words and such a precious, moving story he has
I had a professor in my undergrad that I swore was racist. I lost my mom in my third year, and this professor was the only one that called from my institution to see how I was doing and encouraged me to finish. I am now in my first year of grad school. So yes. Mr. Duke is right. More people want you to succeed than not.
Loving you Duke I felt like that and change my mind often
For Many years Denzel was my fav.Bill Duke .His insight.His perspective.Amazing. Damn.
Absolutely powerful!!!!!! Thank you Mr. Duke for telling the truth.
I felt like I was listening to my on life experience.
I remember Mr. Duke from movies like Commando and Predator: he's a very good actor for sure ;-)
He is on my list of recognizable faces from movies of the '80, and defined my taste of movies when I was around 12 years old ^^
Bill duke is telling it straight cause he is old school and he doesn’t play that shit ..he has seen it all
This blessed me more than I can say! Thank you Mr. Duke for sharing.
dang id like to have bill direct my soon to be oscar nominated script that i havnt wrote yet, but i will
Damn this is beautiful. Thank you, Film Courage.
One of our favorites!
@@filmcourage And it's now one of mine. Again. thank you.
I’d love to be able to talk to him in person.
Beautiful...just Beautiful Thank you Mr. Duke.
The universe is amazing, this video interview popped on my TL + I needed this......thanks for this one 😁🙌🏿🙌🏿
Phenomenal Story, THANKS !!!
It’s a touching story but it also shows how clear and certain and passionate Mr Dukes thoughts were and how the co-manifest with others to help him progress. Meaning the two people who helped him break past some ligit tight spots.
He was willing to walk away from school to money up n come back in stronger... he was flexible but hard core “on it”.
Law Of Attraction In Action-
Great Interview....I appreciate your honesty, and great character.
I'm not crying I just got something in my eye
WHAT A GREAT INSPIRATIONAL MAN, THANK YOU.
Powerful shit! I love the "Duke".
This interview stopped me in my tracks. Absolutely Superb!🎓
Omg this story was meant for me to see! Thank you God!!!
This is heavy, I am glad I met him and now appreciate him more...
What an inspiring and dignified man. Great interview!
Awesome actor and director
I will be very thankful and I think that lady she help you more than you’ll ever know that’s what it sounds like to me💕💕💕💕💕
