About me:
I've been making short films for 20 years, starting at age 11. I directed my first feature film, Bad is Bad, in 2010. Made for only $6,000, the film went on to reach over 7 million views and garner critical acclaim. More recently, my short film, Will "The Machine", screened and won awards at film festivals around the world. Released online in 2019, it reached over 1 million views in just a month. I also work as a video editor, cutting ads for clients such as Apple, Netflix, and Beats by Dre.

It was nice seeing how someone else shoots short films, I'm still learning so I appreciate all the BTS! keep up the great work.

@anthonypc1 Год назад

I was so relieved at the part when it was relieved your cat pulled through. Thank goodness! (I'm an experienced part-time cat shepherd, and would be honored to monitor his vitals for you if ever production duty calls again.)

Avocado cutting Pro Tip: You move and cut the avocado around the knife. Knife always stays still all the time in one hand, so no danger ever involved. Hope that helps someone : )

The one two punch of short film and breakdown videos of said short film. Such a great way to learn filmmaking. Love to see it. Thank you!

I've been looking forward to this since first seeing the short. This was really a helpful BTS video in so many ways. Thanks man! 🙂

@@StandardStoryCo Thanks for the advice I'll definitely try that ❤

@PurpleTopHatGT 13 дней назад

I have an idea for a short film and want to know if anyone would watch it. It's called Web Cam, and you guessed it, is told through a laptop web cab. It is about a young boy who is recording survival blogs in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. It will be a one-man thing. One actor, one editor, (both are me) Not spoiling anything, it will record his journey of trying to figure out the cause of the apocalypse and find a cure while managing the battery on his laptop and the danger of constantly being outside to fix and manage a little thingy thing that gives him an internet connection. There is a big twist at the end, possibly revealing a part 2?

@isaksteelecomedies Год назад

I've been putting together a short movie recently, a sequel to one I made last May... Your tips have been SO helpful in improving my skills and I like to put on my own weird twists on some of the stuff... thank you for your content! I am so excited for my next movie to be done!

This is such gold ! Seeing you at work is super encouraging, not going to lie - I just dusted my old project and ready to go back to shooting :) Btw. seen you use tripod and handheld only, do you ever use / recommend any gimball / rig ?

@KingdomOfHeavenPictures Год назад

The first shot where you're speaking, but the actress with the splint isn't quite listening... I thought, oh she either doesn't want to be there OR she's in tight with with this guy. When I film with my wife, both the feelings come up, lol!

Congrats on getting the film done under such pressure. Really appreciate this behind the scenes look.

@atomic_overlord Год назад

I did this for my First Ever Short Film Aswell the only catch was I literally had No Budget (no camera so used phone, no lighting, etc) it was a lot of Fun, But the One Big Thing i learnt from that was (pay attention) - Do Not Do Shots In Chronological Order, EVER. its just a pain having to go from place to place rather than taking almost all shots at once if they take place on that specific location anyways love your videos Standard Story Company, they help me learn about film making indepth :)

@psysword Год назад

This is the problem with short films. The story about HOW the short film was made has at least three times as many views as the short film it self.

@DavidGriffin Год назад

Hey what power level did you use the M600bi. I'm trying to get a guage as to how much power I'm going to need for my own upcoming project.

@StandardStoryCo Год назад

I don’t think we ever went over 25% for the day because it was pretty dim in that set. When you’re competing with real sunlight is when the full power comes in handy

@DavidGriffin Год назад

@@StandardStoryCo thanks man. That means for your shoot... About 150 watts. That means you could benefit from an Amaran 200x for $300 & the 2x frensel if you ever run into those same type of circumstances like a shot in a garage.

You can tell when a story has no reason to be told. No intention. Just random imagery put together for the sake of ego.

@MariaandBryanTravel Год назад

Really enjoying your videos. However, in this one when you more or less recommend people order props from Amazon and then return them after the shoot, you lost me. Most of those returns go into those infamous bargain pallets people buy. The seller loses a sale and has to refund the money. If you are selling items and people basically treat Amazon as a rental unit and just return things after using them, then you will not be in business very long. I know you are on a budget, perhaps use thrift stores, they have tons of things that can be used and are very cheap.

@InterestedInGameDev Год назад

I agree with your comment! I hope @StandardStoryCo sees this could do something about it or atleast address the issue and drop the part from the video with RU-vid studio if it allows to still make changes

@steveloudon7491 7 месяцев назад

Agreed. I really liked his videos but won't watch another one.

@steveloudon7491 7 месяцев назад

I think you said you ordered items off Amazon fully intending to return them after using them for your purposes. I wish I hadn't heard that because I so enjoyed your videos but now I can't watch any more. So unethical.
