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

I respect her desire to make films about things she hasn't already decided upon. In other words, she is saying if she doesn't have an open mind, she won't do it. I think that kind of attitude puts her in a place to find the truth and make real art.

Still working on it! Good interview. I'm on the verge of drifting between homes to support my filmmaking. Great channel.

[@ValdemarDeMatos]

Alexandria seems very genuine as a person and as a professional. Thanks for introducing her.

Really powerful conversation, as an entrepreneur & female filmmaker in post production on my first documentary this was very inspiring and motivating! ~ Lauren

[@veerendralovi9108]

She's beautiful 😍

"Empty their rentals out and moving into a van". Ha, by coincidence, after reading Ron Perlman's book, Easy Street: The Hard Way, I've decided to look for couches to sleep on or live in my car to support my filmmaking.

Very Rare.

[@marcuswilliamcook8424]

We don't have enough young female director and it's inconceivable and it's completely unfair that film directing is a male-dominated career for some reason!

[@filmcourage]

We hope you get to see Alexandria Bombach's excellent and emotional film #OnHerShoulders. Thanks for watching!

Simple. Put out content, tons and tons of original content.

Robust recovery I think is overstating it. Smoke and mirrors our economy. Smoke and mirrors.
