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

It is important to remember that these are peoples opinions, and are often based on personal experience. It does not by any means say that this is the "only truth." One should always use the information as a guide and learning tool - not as a "bible" - to do that is to do yourself a disservice. Having been on the judging side of things - fine arts juries - I know one thing for sure - a lot of it boils down to personal opinions and often jurors disagree. That said, if a work is incomplete or not ready - that too is a disservice to yourself - and to the jury... It is also important to know the festival - sometimes submissions are not appropriate for the festival...

I would like to a script reader who is a notable contest judge tell us the skinny on his job. Wat he likes, wat he dislikes wen looking for "the one" and also wat his essential goal is
