My SECRET to becoming a Full-Time Filmmaker (& how you can too)

[@nikoagrinzone]

You admitting that the first 2-3 years were a struggle was so comforting to someone who’s in the same situation. I’ve gone full force into my filmmaking career and now on KZbin and it’s hard to not feel discouraged when you have such high hopes and aren’t seeing immediate results. But it’s all a learning process. Love the video man

[@bestonkaiyee1050]

ur vids are very nice man!! keep it up ! u earned my subs !

[@nikoagrinzone]

@@bestonkaiyee1050 thank you so much! I appreciate it

[@aland2189]

Never give up bro, never.

[@vinniev8386]

Congratulations on the new home brother.

[@erick_garcia15]

It's nice to hear that the first 2 years are a struggle especially not seeing results. Stability is something I strive for in life and it is what enables fear and that fear leads to doubt and not create or go out there in my case. Thank you for this. I really appreciated this!

[@thegeorgechuang]

[@WesandJha]

Dude, this video is really powerful. Gave us an insight into the man behind the genius. Very inspiring

[@Whattsuptday60]

Ngl I don't cry often but when you talked about your parents, financial security and childhood memories I shed a couple tears cause I relate to this shit so much thanks from someone soon starting they're journey to adulthood.

[@ChrystalIrene]

The first video of yours that I saw was your A7iii travel video in Japan. You've grown so much since then. Such an inspiration!

[@honeykamboj3529]

LOVE YOUR OUTFITS BRO! GET GOING!

[@AkaiBrandonSuddeth]

I literally never comment on any video here on KZbin. This one got me. I never met my father, so I can't speak to his work ethic. But I will say, having my daughter gave me the extra level I needed to hit when times were rough. Knowing what I do now will enable her future. Keep going man!

[@JustinInBlack]

wish you would have a lighting tutorial, whitebalance, which picture profile u use. Because LUT is just not enough

[@priyagurung6571]

loved you for everything you said here. thnx. i am trying to make it in this field. i will be starting my journey which i always wanted to and which i always liked. take care.

Congratulations on the new home. Seems like 5 years is the sweet spot for my KZbinrs. Love the story.

[@ThiefOfBoredom]

This video really gave me a calming and head-clearing feeling. I think I and a lot of creators experience a lot of anxiety when it comes to creating because we don't know if we'll ever "make it" but the way you speak on your experience gives hope to me. Thank you for sharing!

[@CollinsCamera]

This is the type of video that I needed to see! Thank you for creating this type of content as well as talking a little bit about the struggle as a filmmaker

[@Henbu]

Thanks man! Glad it was helpful! 🙏

[@Jaimesebe]

@@Henbu Indeed!!!Keep it up the good work!!!

[@kbiv3000]

Great advice. Even for me, a 59 year old. Back in the 80's, when I first decided I wanted to make film, there were not the resources like we have today. The rise of affordable cameras and the wealth of filmmaking knowledge on youtube makes it a great time to be a filmmaker. These things have began a rebirth of my dream and motivation to make films. I wish we had these resources 40 years ago.

[@saeedsniff7580]

AMAZING BRO

[@lucafernandozimmer3251]

Nice video! The part with your family really touched me and made me think about my goals. And sometimes it motivates me more to work for my familys wealth than for mine.

[@BenjaminCutting]

Been following for a few years bro - Always inspired & challenged by your creativity. Thanks for sharing your journey 🤙🏻

[@chocolateanddutchy]

Very inspiring. We started making videos only two years and it does feel like a struggle. Listening to your story makes me more motivated to continue 😊

[@ZoCineStreet]

Totally feel and relate to this, thank you. It really helping me through a hard time and inspired by your work!

[@RyanLogan01]

this was dope! you seem like a humble, grounded, very talented young man. Lot more than some of the bigger KZbinrs out there. And way to represent Asians and honour your family. Much success to you dude!

[@MaxwellChan0]

You are so inspiring. I'm just starting my journey right now and I'm excited for what is to come! 😄

[@TheWhiskeyChannel]

I needed to hear this, man. Thank you for making this.

[@BrianHickmanMilitaryBrat]

Respect to you. I'm just about to begin this journey myself. Have a Canon T1i and that is about it.

Man U are a great inspiration I look at your videos almost everyday and it gives me the drives to get my business going in film making keep doing what you are doing I would love to meet u one day but until then I will be making videos

[@TimandLauren]

watched the whole video brotha, great job henbu, God bless you and your parents

[@Henbu]

Thanks so much!!!😊

[@TimandLauren]

@@Henbu i come from a similar background with asian parents working 10+ hours for 40 years, know the desire you have to support them. Thats awesome man, youll get there

[@focusonyofocus]

Great info and much respect!!! Your Journey is dope and inspiring!!!

[@taylor91192]

love everything about this

[@mikulaproduction]

this was very inspirational to watch :) it is nice to hear all that backround story of those, who are already "on the hill". It gives ton of motivation for those who arent yet and removes some of the doubts :) Thank you. Also must agree about the gear! I would say it is actually better to start with crappy gear, just to learn how to use it in its full potential. Its gonna make one even better filmmaker afterwards, with the proper equipment :)

[@AlexBellini3]

How am I this late to finding this channel?! Love this video!

[@Henbu]

Thanks man!! 🙏

[@ClaudioDesideriFilms]

Respect dude, I also have my parents who always worked a lot without complaining. Respect for you and your family mate🤜🤛
