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.

Let's chat!

Should you still be posting to Instagram these days? What about YouTube, is it still worthwhile creating video content on a very saturated platform? I believe it is, but you also should have a very specific goal in mind otherwise your time and effort might not be put towards the best areas in your life. In today's episode i'll be covering some of the reasons people shy away from posting more on social media and ways we all can get over the initial hump to growing our personal brands and thus our businesses.

Link to the breakdown images will be right here for you to follow along!

Is this a joke? What do you mean tools for success without gear?!?! Clickbait??? Nope, just real talk on how to set yourself up for success when it comes to the business aspect of being an owner/operator. Things like communication, team management, client expectations vs your own person needs are skillsets that will help you grow your business year in and year out.

With the recent strikes in the industry concerning mostly the use of AI, I felt it was time to make this episode as some crew members i've spoken to this year have been concerned around AI taking away jobs from practically every department of production. From working on virtual production sets to speaking with union members I can honestly say that you don't need to be worried about AI taking away jobs. At least for the foreseeable future...
