      Can you do a video about how you protect your BMPCC 6k pro from the elements when shooting? snow, dust, rain, heat etc?

    Your second point about advice is sooooo accurate. I failed on that point early on and I wish I was smart enough to tune out the noise sooner. Your third and fourth points naturally ties into the second point. Good advice all around. Thanks for sharing.

    Peter mckinnon is one of the few UA-camrs who, as far as I can tell, went into UA-cam with the intent of pursuing virality and making this his full time job. Most other big creators did this as a hobby, fell into success and realised doing YT full time was a better choice than their actual job.
    He worked this platform immaculately, like a science and you have to respect that

    Omg talking about perfect timing - we (myself, wife and my sister) are in a process of setting a similar business too (long story but mostly corporate stuff). Anyway appreciate the inside info 🙏

      That's awesome! And no problem! In the rush of excitement of starting a new business you kind of miss some of the fundamentals so always good to kind of address those and some things to think about early on that will help you in the future!

    I just launched my own production company, Clear Creek Films LLC, and this channel has helped me tremendously. I've read and watched a lot of content so I can learn as much as possible but this channel has helped me the most. 🙏

    *Global Archetype Paradigm, LLC* One technique for naming your business is something like Reverend Al & Associates. I was in graphic design and people in advertising, design, publicity often did this. No need to do a fictitious business name filing in that circumstance. Can use your personal checking account and credit rating for business. Learning accounting was a definite positive for me.

      True, still good to at least give yourself set up as some kind of business entity. But for real, accounting and learning when to spend money on new gear and grow your business is tricky.

      Yeah, it's always hard to find people with good advice too though isn't it? Everyone always wants to act like they are so successful when in fact it's such a hard industry to work in and you're grinding it out constantly even if you've made it with some higher end clients. Hope you're liking this content though! Trying some new stuff out without getting too much into "this will help you make a million dollars" kind of crap content

    Tip #2 is wrong. Often the people who win at life know the least about how much luck and circumstance played into their successes and therefore have the least awareness of how many ways it can go wrong. That said, there is significant merit in seeking out advice from people who've made it to where you want to go.
