I think if you change the title to have the amount in it like "I Had $20,000 Worth of Gear Stolen - How to Keep Yours Safe" with a thumbnail of a masked dude stealing it out of the truck or similar, this video would get a lot more than 1.2k views
05:18 Dude, so unbelievably true. And the fact that you could turn this experience into something positive is just amazing. Thanks for sharing. Super inspirational
Not gonna lie man the first hour of that happening was insane! Definitely wasn’t positive at that moment lol but as the days went on I realize that I was much more than just some equipment that I’ve lost. Thanks for watching brother!
Lol thanks Andy! It was definitely a rough couple of months after that but the real value I had was my experience and knowledge of filmmaking. I appreciate your support man thanks for watching! Hopefully that RU-vid algorithm can work its magic 😩
Maaaaaan… there’s so many heartless piece of s*** in this world and I hope it never happens to me! With that being said, the way you explain what to do, how to do it and all is sooo humble of you!! Well done brother and I sure keep those tips in the back of my mind (still hoping it never happens 🤞🏼)
My sympathies for your gear loss Alex. Your resilience is inspiring. Glad to see you bouncing back with new gear! Keep creating amazing content! Thank you for sharing you experiences.
Thank you Quincy, I greatly appreciate that. It’s been a tough uphill battle from then, but finally I’ve gotten to a place where I got all my gear back and things are somewhat back to normal. I’m so glad that you found the channel and thank you for your support.🙏🏻
Thank you my friend the way I see it is all creatives are in this together one way or another, I just hope this stops happening to other people. Thanks for watching my friend!
I was looking for more trailers of your documentaries, then I saw this video. what a sad story! hopefully things are going well now. sorry to hear this!
Thanks man. Things are definitely going a lot better that happened at the end of last year. Since then we got new gear and continued working on our documentary. Thanks for watching and the support
Realy sorry for what happened to you man, must felt terrible. That aside, this is the best video on your channel so far 🙃 . Great storytelling, everything you're teaching is here. Keep it Up 💪🏾
Thanks man I appreciate it brother! It was definitely tough to go through but on the other side of things I realized that the most important thing you have is knowledge and experience.
Wow. I just came across this video and now I see what you were talking about in your messages to me. Thats crazy. So similar to my car being stolen here in Philly.
@@Alexzarfatifilms Like I said on the other videos. Im shooting a project with what I have remains which is a Canon DSLR & inexpensive 4k camcorder next month. Its not my two BMPCC 4K'S but its been 3 years gotta start somewhere
My car with over 9k in filming gear was stolen yesterday during the day in Torrance CA from a condo guest parking lot. I am disheartened and angry! Unfortunately I did not have it insured and my home insurance will likely not cover the loss either.
