1. You can have a Shot list and still be open minded. 2. A shot list helps you understand what gear you need. 3. Without a shot list you might end up missing important shots. Like Insert Shots of important key details. 4. A Long Shot is just a combination of Shots from a SHOT LIST. 4. Honestly not having a Shot List is a sign of pure laziness. MY OPINION

if you ever make a feature count me in @dpoftheyear ill fly myself to LA you haven been more than an inspiration since I first started following the both of you 5-7 years ago.

Comparison is the thief of joy.

New PIT STOP episode about 3 apps every creative NEEDS to use!

I'm down for this path guys! Thanks for doing this.

Nice to hear from you guys, I find it motivating to hear an actual, non-guru story. I had a fleeting thought, what do you think about the possibility of offering your courses tailored for a Spanish-speaking audience? It's okay if you think it's a bad idea; just curious. I'm all down if you need somebody to do the translating/subtitling. Keep up all your great work, peace!

For those that are new here, Tom and Jake here For starters, we’re filmmakers who have spent the last decade freelancing. Freelancing as a creative has its upsides and downsides - From working 16+ hr days on set, waiting 3-6months to get paid (and sometimes never being paid...) We were tired of trading our time for money, and the inconsistencies that came from working as a freelancer - so 1 day in 2016 we decided to try something new. At this point we had been working together for 3-4 years, so we decided to take a few weeks and create a 100+ page PDF that broke down the tips and tricks we had learned in our filmmaking journey's. We’ll never forget the day we launched this product. We woke up to $5,000+ in sales on the first day This was more than either of us had made as a day rate freelancing. And the next day, another couple thousand $. To be honest, It almost didn’t seem real... What was even crazier, this being a digital product, the customer got an automated email with a download link. We didn’t have to print out shipping labels, or ship any physical products. This DIY 100page PDF completely changed our lives. It was from this moment we went all in on making digital products and a few months later we launched @tropic.colour and to date with that brand alone, we’ve crossed $14,500,000+ in sales. We don’t say this to brag, or to be boastful of how much we have made. We say this because we were 2 freelancers with zero prior experience in how to do any of this. Fast forward to today, years after launching our first product /business, we decided we wanted build a hub for Creative Entrepreneurs to help them do the same. Whether that be making money passively online, growing your brand/business, creating engaging social content, grow your follower count, learn valuable skillsets, etc And look, you don’t even have to be a creator, or a filmmaker, or a photographer… if you're someone who has always had an itch to build your own thing and create passive income, than you are in the right place with #CEO

Excited for this new series to help all of our Creative Entrepreneurs out there!

Excited to help yall grow!

Inspiring work as always 🕊️💯

Hell yes lads

Thanks for all that you all do! Keep the content coming, ppl are paying attention, trust me, we see the grind! You guys are appreciated, the transparency is one of one, I've learned a ton since following Jakob, I'm talking T2i days... lmao 💪🏾💪🏾

Recently stumbled upon this podcast and man, what a goldmine of insights! As a young South African filmmaker who just embarked on the journey of starting my own film company, this podcast episode hit home in so many ways. Your insights on why cameras are a bad investment really got me thinking. It's easy to get caught up in the gear frenzy, especially when starting out, but your perspective on the importance of investing resonated deeply. The discussion on investing beyond just equipment was eye-opening. It's refreshing to hear successful filmmakers like yourselves emphasizing the value of diversifying investments. Being a young filmmaker in SA, where resources can sometimes be limited, your practical advice on making smart financial choices im the film business is invaluable. I'm taking away a lot from this episode, and it's giving me a fresh perspective on how to approach both the creative and business aspects of my filmmaking venture. Thanks guys.

my favorite filmmakign podcast!

Love it!!

Thank you max for the inspiring conversation!!

Thank you Max for taking the time to talk with us! Hopefully this convo is very motivational for other filmmakers out there!

I love this you guys are wild

Hey dudes. Thanks for sharing. I’d like to connect further, I am in the process of making a tool for filmmakers on my own. It’s an expensive item so I’m pitching investors. But where you could be cool is a sample case study. If this sounds the slightest bit intriguing hit me up. Thanks Jimmy

So motivating how real this convo was as a fan of all the channels mentioned. I’m putting in my notice at my part time job next week to finally do this shit full time. I’m gonna be on your guys level in 1 year… mark my words 😤

Appreciate the love on Gasedmask! Thanks for inspiring us to make this one happen 🖤

Great takeaways! Thanks for the feedback boys. Can’t wait for next years competition!

Awesome video

GREAT FILMS!

So many amazing films. Thank you all for participating!!!

Congrats to all the finalists! What an amazing year and some truly amazing films!

missed those! great content as always

Great video. Jakob talking bout cinepack white kid. Can’t remember his name doe

Yo this podcast has so many usefully information. There are tons of podcast talking about how good the gear is and how shitty some clients are; but not quite alot that really show the backside of running such a business. Keep it coming!

Absolutely loved this sit down. 3 of my favorite creators/businessmen

Loved sitting down and chopping it up with Landon! Great conversation and topics covered in this one.

YES!

Hope you all enjoy this new episode...working on some other new episodes as well, stoked to be back. What guest would you like to see next?!

convo we didnt know we needed

Loved this interview!

Did you use a video switcher or switched camera angles when you edited?

Couldn't agree with Jake more if I tried, everyone and their dog had these gimbals on productions, basically with zero movement.Unless you're running or moving several steps, there's literally zero need for a gimbal. All these kids in the UK buy their little GH5 or whatever, slap it on a gimbal with a wide angle lens, no FF motor system and just weave it about to create some kind of 'movement' in the shot for absoutly zero reason. They have a purpose for sure, but unless you're hanging out of a car, running or doing major movement. I think they are an overused tool that just makes the shot look so pedestrian in a lot of circumstances. Rigged up & Handheld all the way for me on 90% of my shoots. If you get a nice heavy camera system rigged up, there's far less micro jitter and if your a good operator, you should be able to do nearly all of your work bar extreme movement shots without a gimbal in my opinion.

Would love to see more of these business takes from y'all within the film industry. Highly slept on.

Great stuff. Keep it up!

Would love to hear your takes on what you would do if you were limited to a smaller city or area. Some people can't always move because of family or other reasons so what would be your move? RUclips? Digital Assets or carve out a marketing video/photo niche in your smaller area? I used to live in Arizona but now Kaua'i so even smaller lol.

Fire as always!

I fucking love these podcasts. Always hitting topics that are very timely for me. Much respect

Holy sh¡t New York Times was 🔥AF‼️

I’ll clean up I’ll be y’all assistant anything! Y’all 🐐

Loved this ep!

Totally at that place right now where I have to jump all in. Thanks for the inspiration!
