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

I also write novels, as well. I am hoping that I get published this year.

[@bumbitusproductions8922]

So no Mercedes right away?

[@c10_c10]

Such great advice. Passive income seems to be one of the few ways to sustain as a creative person today (in order to maximize your energy and time). Love your channel. I always learn so much from it.

[@indieshack4476]

Very important and well-conveyed advice. We all need to keep the wolves at bay somehow.

[@constanceescobar58]

Thank you for the suggestion of this video series. it's very good at addressing every question I have. It even answers my thoughts yet to be formed into questions.

[@mickmartin4681]

The advice of the elite to the poor is never to unionize, never try to change things: it's always "just work harder." No exceptions to be found.

[@joseafalvel]

great advice :)

[@jakebooth658]

Capital is necessary to have in order to live in this world. But it’s not my main focus. I don’t care about the fancy car, the big house, the riches. I just want something I created to transcend me. To be something that inspires a generation of kids to write just like George Lucas’ Star Wars did for me, just like Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead did for me, just like the many movies and tv shows I grew up with. The imagination in me never left from when I was a kid. I’m not even 25 and I’m still trying to navigate through life the best I can. I recently rediscovered my love for writing after selling my soul to a life of 9 to 5s and depression. The passion in me is back and I’m not gonna stop working my ass off until I’ve shaped something beautiful.

[@pointmotivation-2023.]

Some great advice on income there

[@stevegeorge7773]

Sage real observations.

[@PrateekMehta92]

no pain no gain

[@rrogers2370]

MAN. thank you! resources and coming from money. best video yet. it's a business. keep working hard...and network too.

[@TheKeithvidz]

Told a work colleague a couple weeks back - no way leaving my job for my passion of writing unless BIG money. Video I'd watched (scriptfella) warned never come Hollywood without cash or no alternate job. The US in the midst of the 2023 writers strike puts any sane writer on guard.

[@JERSEYBOYPLAY2HARD]

Writers shouldn’t just be writers. Have to be a producer , Director or actor. Writers create the jobs but has least of the day when it comes to getting things made.

[@TheKeithvidz]

@@JERSEYBOYPLAY2HARD Took 3 months to pick up I got replied! Very much so. I'm sure producer cropped up in my head, but focused on if my name gets big enough have a production company and hire a few writers to develop my numerous ideas then work out some production deals. I myself keep writing.

[@juju10683]

As a physician someone told me something similar “your second job is managing the money you make so that it works for you”

[@WannabeWryter]

sigh well that was depressing. not discouraging just despressing

[@film_magician]

Sounds a lot like having a plan B to fall back on. ... and you will.
