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

This man has single-handedly given us the game. It’s because of him I pushed off outside of UA-cam.
I would love to see a panel or event with several of these speakers at once. Or even some small time writers who are doing minor paid gigs.
It’s a shame so much is based on algorithms now. So much could barely be found that could be great.
It makes me think what can be considered a classic or a franchise might not survive today. I mean Jurassic park barely had dinosaurs for almost an hour.
Hi Film Courage, love your contents! Would be cool if you have some kind of offline event that we all can meet the people you interviewed and have Q&A sessions for the audience.
As someone who wants to get my movie on Amazon over the next few months, this video was a fantastic watch!!
Great to hear! We also recommend visiting J. Horton's UA-cam channel. He has a ton of content like this - ua-cam.com/users/JHorton
@@filmcourage thank you!! I am so glad to have found this channel years ago because you have helped me so much ❤
I don't have amazon but I can see them doing with independent films like they do with regular merchandise.
Collect data on what's being bought and then put their own version of that product first in it's listings.
So amazon may be in the "first hit is free from the drug dealer" phase.
If they were so good to independent films with getting them out there at first, what's coming next is the pushing.
"You got to do it our way now..."
I’m kind of new here. Do you always upload daily? I’m impressed
Every day at 5pm PST
Watch everything. I've been watching this channel for years. It's the best!! Watch all the old videos too. They are all amazing
@@avifor5772 Film Courage is just about the best channel out there for serious screenwriters. I wish I'd known about them when I first started going for paying gigs.
AMZN) has announced that its Prime Video Direct platform has stopped accepting unsolicited documentary and short film submissions.
LOL! Yep. Know the feeling. That's my life too. Glad it ended up great. Food always makes things better. Also glad your little one got her well-earned hat back.
What is the best distribution platform for independent filmmakers right now?
tubi
I like Tubi too
I'm quickly becoming a TUBI fan.
Great insights. J. Horton gives awesome info. HOWEVER, the screenplay hook in 10 pages never was a thing. Always has been that you need to hook the reader on the first page and if you can do it in the first sentence, even better.
Great Guest. ; )
Can we upload the webseries on Amazon Prime Direct ? If not why do they provide options to upload Movies / Webseries contents , Payment Banking information etc
So ,when did this change? Am I missing something? Two years ago I started producing my animated sci-fi series Phungus & Mowld, put it up on Amazon Prime and I'm publishing new episodes whenever they're done (I'm a one-man operation, so roughly one ep. a year). Whether the series is available via SVOD in the regions is at the sole discretion of Amazon staff/algorithms, but whenever I upload a new episode, it usually returns to SVOD for at least a year. And I don't even have a notable viewer base at all.
Can we upload the webseries on Amazon Prime Direct . If not Why does it provide options to upload webseries contents , Bank account for revenue sharing . etc .
A lot of interesting stuff in this of which I was totally unaware with regard to Amazon :-)
Amazon Prime is raising their prices for customers... But for filmmakers ?
First like and comment. Love the channel!!!
Cheers Alex!
Third like, share and comments. Saving this
Nice!
Look forward to Film Courage SXSW panel 👍🏻
Good solid info. Thanks for that.
Thanks for watching Paul!
This was really good
Thanks for watching!
Good tips. Very well said.
Thanks for watching!
Cool.
That's interesting
I bet it WAS planned to get rid of indie filmmakers, but i do get that lots of cheap stuff was goin on there
Wow. Like doing the limbo at the roller rink, but less fun? idk, Prudish, low attention spans and engaging is such an odd challenge isn't it?
Nice J.
Nowadays people make videos, not films. We are more like streamers, not fimmakers.
I was gonna put the SERE Challenge on Amazon, until I found out about the captions requirement. What a joke
What is SERE challenge?
Interesting defense of Amazon. When "The Rings of Power" flops, perhaps they'll learn a lesson or two.
It won't flop coz people will still "hate watch it". The best solution is to just pretend it doesn't exist
Follow the 1% rule. 90,000,000 Amazon viewers X 0.01 who might find your newbie film listed = 900,000 potential viewers X 0.01 actual viewers who care = 9,000 views/1 hour ea. $0.20 = $1,800 R.O.I. Be upfront with investors.
I've actually thought about using Amazon and I have been looking for information. This is great information.
Much more on J. Horton's channel - ua-cam.com/users/JHorton
Lesson one; be original
Lesson two; respect your audience
Lesson three; respect your literary better who in a single novel achieved more for literature and entertainment than your entire corporation ever will.
The “Rings of Power” will not save the WOKE agenda, they have only the power to destroy.
I absolutely agree with these points.
Go Mike Waterfield!!

scAmazon is the worst
Stop up loading woke crap
