On the cusp of NAB 2024 (I was working so I wasn't there) there were so many new release from cameras, lenses, AI integration with NLEs and more. Although I haven't made the purchase of any brand new release, yet, I did purchase a new camera package. Well the camera isn't new but listen to the rest of this episode to find out what I did end up buying for the business.

As we're already heading into the middle of 2024 have you asked yourself, "man I really need to start leveling up my business but i'm stuck..". Perhaps you feel you should be charging more as the cost of living has gone up and you've been charging the same rates for the last 5 years. For some of us the thought raising our rates brings anxiety through the fear of our clients and network not wanting to work with us anymore. That will happen with some clients but the vast majority of them will level up with you but that only happens when you take action to make the change first.

Did I or am I BSing you? Hard to tell especially when other content creators on YouTube are creating videos with click bait titles as well! Today's episode is more about perspective and honesty, virtues that apparently content creators still value less than the views they get on their videos but hey who am I to judge? I hope you enjoy this episode as always and if you do please rate the podcast on Apple podcast it would certainly help out!

Have you wondered how to branch into new industries? Perhaps you've been doing your regular bread and butter type shoots but have always dreamt of doing fashion videos? Your network is where 99% of your leads come from and if it's comprised of directors and producers within a very specific genre, well that's the type of work you'll get. In today's episode I talk about ways to reach out to producers/directors in order for you to start doing the type of projects you truly want to be involved with.

When I first started my career it was a lot of verite/documentary style coverage. Which usually meant going hand held and running around grabbing what I felt were interesting shots. As my career progressed and working on larger sets with more demand for a structured approach, I soon realized that my approach was had too many faults. There was a lack of coverage that not only made my time on set longer than needed but in the edit there were a lot of gaps in where I could have told a more thoughtful story. Today i'd like to explore the concept of coverage and why it matters to you as a cinematographer.

Last year on a commercial production I was there was a very awkward moment on set that. One of those situations where you have to ask yourself, "if I were in that position what I would do?". I wanted to share that experience so that if you ever find yourself in a similar situation you'll be prepared to respond in the best way possible.

The last few years we've seen a huge cross over from photography to cinematography, with many adopting the ultra soft light look. Nothing wrong with soft light at all, give me a 12x12 of magic cloth with a grid all day! However, there are instances where balancing between having both hard and soft light has created a new paradigm shift away from your traditional soft source lighting. Today I wanted to talk about how i've been incorporating both types of light and how you might find it beneficial as well.
