Have you taken time to reflect on your work from the past year? What have YOU done to improve your work?

Slowing down is 100% on the list for this year for me. Instead of worrying about turn around/overshooting, make the shoots count!

Thanks Joe. This is a great advice. I feel also guilty about constantly want to try out and experiment new gear. But at the end these are just tools what matters is your skillset and how you’re able to tell a story through lighting, acting and camera movement.

Great honest video and so good to hear you're thriving! One of the benefits of this line of work is that you're always learning, but it can also get overwhelming - nice to hear your perspective on this. I think learning to concede control and collaborate with others is one of the hardest lessons to learn but ultimately brings the biggest rewards and allows you to scale upwards (without having a nervous breakdown doing everything yourself) - but there's definitely a learning curve involved in delegating and managing a crew.

Great points in this video! I agree with your logic here. Slowing down is the ticket. This past year I found myself working with some clients that were impatient with my process when I slowed down and took the time to properly set lights and audio for a high quality image. Needless to say, I am not working with these people anymore. The number one way to increase quality and not miss things is to slow down on set. Not everything needs to be a rush, and if it is, you are working with the wrong people.
@joenicklo

Glad to hear that you put your foot down and stopped working with those type of clients. It's hard...but sometimes you have to do it. You're being hired for not just your work but also your process. If the client can't trust your process, why'd they hire you in the first place? Right?

Excellent tips. And inspiring. I, too, try to get myself to just go out and shoot with my camera. At night, during the day. In as many varied lighting situations as possible. When I hear people complain about their cameras, I always wonder if they have actually used their camera often enough to understand it fully - or better. Especially, when the complaint is about a camera that I have used and know that there shouldn't be issues the other user is complaining about. Good ole user error. Yea, get to know your tools.

I think one of the issues is that so many Gear Reviewing RU-vidrs perpetuate this notion that you need to get the latest and greatest. Being a gear reviewer, that is something I've done my best to avoid. As long as people take their time to learn their gear, they can extract so much more out of it than they think. I've seen some awesome work shot on the sony a7iii...and I've seen horrible work shot on higher-end cams.

Great advice. Now that I've moved from West Palm Beach to Atlanta I find myself meeting way more people to collaborate with, tons more resources, and projects to work on that challenge me more to make me a better filmmaker in the short time I've been here. And as you said, it's a constant learning process, and I find more learning opportunities. I always love your RU-vid content and keep up the excellent work.
@joenicklo
@joenicklo Год назад
ATL is a MUCH larger market. That was definitely a good move for you. There are times I wish I could get out of Florida and into a bigger market but it's not in the cards for me. That's great to hear it's working for you!
