I Met The Coolest Director In Hollywood.

[@Rabbert]

Hoooly what a debut to youtube longform! I'm absolutely blown away by the sets and editing and sound design. Amazing job

[@TheRecider]

Haha thanks man, that’s so fire to hear you say that 🙏🏻

[@ThomasFlight]

Love the diner setup for the interview! Looks amazing.

[@amoscaul3264]

Didn't expect to see you here.

[@TheRecider]

Ahhhh, you’re a huge inspiration, glad you liked it!

[@WilliamTeller]

Love to see I'm a fan of both the video account and commenting account! Thomas you're an inspiration!

[@stoneylonesome4062]

Reminds me of the Diner in “A Scanner Darkly”.

[@jakebennett7090]

Love that Thomas replied here. I’m so damn deep in this film commentary family gd

[@JazzyAnne]

I can't believe this is your first KZbin video. What a freakin introduction. I'm so stoked for you and your future, you're already doing amazing things ❤

[@TheRecider]

Ahhhhhh thank you so much!!

[@kevinmasundire]

Be specific, interesting advice and I guess a good food for thought, congrats on the interview and like the whole video wow.

[@WasabiNoise]

Ok, I loved the style of the video, it reminds me a bit of Gawx's videos and yet you brought your own sauce into it (something I've been trying to do now). Can I say some criticism? I feel uneasy when you are crossing your arms the whole interview, I get it, I've been there, you don't know where to put your hands when you are nervous. I'm just saying that this is something you could improve next time in a similar situation.... or maybe not, and be yourself. In any case, I loved the video!

[@nox5870]

Waking Life is a certified classic! A Scanner Darkly is also another great gem. Before Trilogy is one of the greatest trilogies of all time! This guy is a genius.

[@im6gesim6ges]

Absolutely phenomenal work here, it was so great to see you go through that whole experience and allow us all to sort of share that excitement and anticipation with you. Also the sequence at 7:50 onward was unreal lol.

[@TheNameisPlissken1981]

I am old enough to have seen Dazed and Confused in the theater! It was September 1993. I was 19. I knew of Richard from the film Slacker. I had read his Dazed script and thought it would make a great film. So I gathered all my friends into my 1984 Monte Carlo and drove the 45 mins to the only theater in NJ that was playing the film. Suffice it to say, we loved it! Good times.

[@darylswalker]

Looking forward to more long form from you dude! Big fan of your IG shorts and this longer piece didn't disappoint!

[@elyasboussetta5900]

You did it, man ! Social anxiety is a real strong antagonist, and you just overcame it, man! Congrats! You outdid yourself !

[@AlexBjorstorp]

Incredibly well put together man! You definitely have a place on KZbin and from someone who's loved your IG short films for a long time, it's great to see you put your storytelling skills into long-form too! Excited to see what you bring next but take the pressure off. We love seeing it because it's you, so it doesn't have to be perfect every time!

[@TheRecider]

Wow, thank you so much!

[@HeadbutKneecap]

The production value on this is amazing.

[@miguelmonsivais1474]

I've served Richard Linklater a couple of times. I used to work at a bakery in Austin where he shot scenes in for both Slacker and Waking Life and he still would go there as a customer. He's a decent fella and very approachable. You wouldn't know he's an academy award winner if you didn't know who he was. He's, what I like to call, an OG Austinite. Or what Austin used to be. He has that vibe. He's never left, apparently.

[@ashhasacamera]

INCREDIBLE video dude, keep it up :)

[@NormieDude-k2z]

You really made this whole video like an experienced documentary short if 17 minutes. The whole video format and Idea of meeting Richard Linklater and telling people who don't know his legacy was really what I was looking for. It was great first KZbin video and I am sure to checkout anything new whatever you bring us. One question please do answer, What's your fav Linklater film from his filmography? Mine's Dazed and Confused well I did see Hit Man too and Glen Powell really killed it with his performance.

[@TheRecider]

My favorite is either Everybody Wants Some or Boyhood, they're both so good

[@NormieDude-k2z]

@@TheRecider Same bro, my favorite is also Boyhood (watched it recently, my present favorite) but with change of yours with Dazed and Confused.

[@thesuperframe]

Fantastic video mate, excited to see where you go

[@s3_build]

So well edited and filmed.

[@kylemccarthy]

This was so great Nick! You absolutely crushed it on your youtube debut, so excited for more.

[@danrhodes]

FANTASTIC VIDEO, mate this was next level

[@graciearchives]

Just two legends sitting at a table

[@TheRecider]

Means sm to hear from a legend like you

[@bigredcupproductions]

I’ve been watching your micro shorts for a minute now and always dig your shooting/editing style but to see more of your personality and who you are as a person is a lovely insight. Linklater is one of my favourite filmmakers too and I’m stoked for you to get this opportunity. Great video dude 💛

[@thespenserdavis]

Man, if this is the level that your videos are *starting* at (and how the eff, honestly?!), it's going to be incredible to watch where you go next. Subscribed!

[@brandonfarewell]

I was expecting an interview. This was WOW. This was great to watch.

[@Leoc1034_]

this is truly awesome man! Love you man, and your work!

[@valducept5335]

Great work there! Outside of the interview itself I really enjoyed the narration of the first part with the different cuts and color grading! It looks really professional! Eager to discover more of your work!

[@neontints]

I love how Richard Linklater's movies are so sincere, cool and telling in a personal place. It's so nice to see this video and what he has to say about his experience. Awesome work, I can't believe its your first video. The editing is SO NICE. Truly looking up for your channel.

[@Coragem.filmes]

Great material! Well crafted, great storytelling. The interview was super nice. Cheers from Brazil. ;o)

[@kp10641]

sometimes you SHOULD meet your heroes!

[@cristir3463]

This was amazing to watch, I feel this video on a whole other level. I'd definitely would've passed out if I met Richard Linklater but, I'm so happy I found your channel, the way you create is so good and weirdly refreshing

[@LukeJMorgan]

Loved this great stuff man. I really liked how you intercut it with a cinematic representation of your thoughts and feelings!

[@isaaclopezactor]

Amazing video brother. Welcome to KZbin!

[@AllBut1Productions]

Wow this is very inspiring and incredibly relatable to someone like myself who is a HUGE linklater fan and has similar feelings towards KZbin & media creation as you do

[@RabihChughtai]

Amazing lighting design and editing. Instantly subscribed, you’re really talented so keep it going!

[@JasonBeckettProductions]

[@apple.cheeks]

Playing hide and seek in boxland must be so fun. It's crazy the more I watch the more amazed I am by the different shots you made, those close-ups??

[@kimchikinos7601]

Your ability to make every frame pop is an extraordinary talent. Please keep exploring it.

[@FELPSWORLD]

Thank you so much!!

[@AlisaLomax]

You really did a great job! I would've been in knots, too. I'm glad you got to do this and enjoy it.

[@uccmrex]

[@Kylervazquez]

Make more long form content… this was a whole experience thank you for sharing your story!🙌🏾🔥

[@Elassyahmed]

That's a great video. Thank you for sharing. You did incredible. A lot of people would have stuttered and sweat and be vague with their questions. You came prepared and did great.

You did such a great job! Apart from being just a great interview I love how you gave this video you're own personal perspective (which was very well filmed). I look forward to seeing your future videos :)

[@koahiga]

I thought this dude’s personality would be moody af like Batman or something. My guy is so joyful, you love to see it.

[@TheeBluestBerry]

You are a massive inspiration to me and many others. Can't wait to see what you do next!

[@arjunbharadwaj73]

I absolutely love your work especially how you play with light and make simple things look so so pretty. The initial half of this video was a glimpse of the kind of beautiful filmmaker that you're going to be. So So excited for your work. Hope you do more long form work alongside your reels. Every time I see your stuff on my feed it puts a smile on my face. I hope I get to work and learn from you some day. Love from India ❤❤

[@SimoneThomasRowe]

This is incredible! You're going places FOR SURE. As a fellow young filmmaker, I wish you the best of luck with everything you do! You seem like you have such a genuine soul. Keep that and cherish that. Always stay true to who you are :) Thanks for an awesome video, it was truly inspirational.

[@ignacio.chiarelli]

Incredible storytelling. Thank you for being an inspiration

[@samrunsads]

Ahhhh I love Linklater thank you for posting this

[@cali7xx]

Well done you! Beautiful insightful opening and you did a great job asking the right questions. Love Linklater too, he's a BIG deal to me 🙌🏻❤ Hitmen was fantastic and i agree, we havnet even scraped the surface w Glen's abilities. He's a movie giant in the making

[@auraliax1323]

I love your videos so much, you have a great future ahead❤

[@ahmedsalafap5898]

This is cinematic masterpiece .

[@dominikburgervisuals]

That might be the single most well filmed, edited and insanely well told story I ever saw on KZbin. I think every filmmaker can relate on how it feels to get nothing right, to feel uninspired, to feel like you are one of a billion. I am coming from a time where Sam Kolder dominated 'filmmakers social media'. When he suddenly stopped doing most of his 'cinematic' content I really felt like there was no other like him. He was the reason I started making videos. This video right here, is the first one, to really make me feel what I felt when I first watched 'My Year 2016' back in the day. Feeling inspired. Thank you, for crafting this piece.

[@JonathanEBoyd]

Great work , great video & very inspiring .so brilliantly donE Richard Linklater on of my favourite filmmakers too

[@JaceDiehl]

The color grading is 🔥

[@collaborativekiwistudios1191]

Great video super inspiring how do you not have more subs!!!!
