Stuff we use:
LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - amzn.to/2tbtmOq
AUDIO
Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post amzn.to/2t1n2hx
Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - amzn.to/2u5UnHv
COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - amzn.to/2t1M67Z
EDITING - We upgraded our editing suite this year and we’re glad we did! This has improved our workflow and the quality of our work. Having new software also helps when we have a problem, it’s easy to search and find a solution - goo.gl/56LnpM

Intelligence, patience, and hard work gets you to this level. Nothing less will do.
and having half the people pitching, already knowing the executives you're pitching too...(sigh)
Every word rings true to me re dealing with investors / execs during this time on Zoom pitch meetings especially. Thanks for this one (and the series in general).
He gives more reasonable and useful advice than any I've seen.
What key insights did you gain from this video?
That my idea and one sentence log line is rather unique, and that nothing like it is out there, but it would never get made as a trilogy or TV show. It's too out there perspective wise, breaks rules and would be too costly to take a risk on come film/season 2.
'A hilarious gory dark comedy about us, but not for us or by us.'
Maybe A24?
When practice pitching I will hand the volenteers a sheet with the criteria I want or need to meet.
She is a great interviewer ;)
And so mysterious. They never put her name or pic in.
Knows her audience too, never afraid to ask for insider jargon to be explained
"Pitched also need iteration" great lesson
"So do you have a movie for me?"_Yes Sir I do...
Writing it was super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
@@kayligo "first draft was a well written compelling story, centered around well crafted character...but then money happened"
@@rocadezona85 I thought we were doing Ryan George quotes 🤷🏻♀️
Wow wow wow wow wow wow
@@kayligo " but then money happened " ...is a Ryan George quote as well.
Peter has great things to say.
Can he also leave contact details of the relevant producers because selling a script doesn't begin in a pitch meeting. It begins in the how to find the agents and producers.
This guy is making your blood freeze. It feels like he's having this Aquarius vibe energy, very smart, weird and cold. I'd be frightened to pitch to him.
I watched Pale Flower just to make an idea, and yea he's got a niche taste in movies and very original. I don't think he'd go for mainstream in selecting his projects and clients.
The questions were great, you've got the info any new writer would need to know.
So where can a newbie writer expect a tv series or film to land price wise if bought? Looking for expls please (as I know every idea, genre, etc is "different" 😉
I need to know how does an aspiring screenwriter get signed up with an agency 😐
Dude I have no idea and I write for a living.
A portrait of a young artist as a corporate pitchman.
For me, I love to pitch my ideas (TV and film) in a Stephen Hillenburg way.
In all seriousness, what does this mean?
@@PlayAllDayProductions oh, man. I don't know. It's been a very long time since I wrote anything.
@@kenrickbautista6141 Haha, no worries - it's all good!!
Any contact details to deliver an exceptional screenplay materials from A southern Asian writer?
How to pitch a tv show for Marvel. And that TV pitch is not part of Mcu
First
Nice!
@@filmcourage give him a 🍪
🍪
Sell Deez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got to say, for a guy who's supposed to be able to tell a story, he really doesn't seem to know how to get to the point
I think his hesitation was due to confidentiality parameters he was trying to adhere to, when referring to his recent pitch and deal. I know when I get carried away talking about a client or a deal my tongue works way faster than my brain and later on my writing partner let’s me know about it!
@@smartalecc Be that as it may, maybe, his presentation wasn't on the spot or spontaneous so he had time to plan. This is tantamount to clickbait.
