    I remember you saying you volunteered your services to your church. That's when I saw your heart was in the right place. Props. Keep it up.

    Just wanna say thank you for being you !cause as for me just starting out it’s great to hear people like you is willing to share your knowledge.

    You sir, understood something that a lot of people miss - soft skills. A lot of talented people out here don't know how to talk or respect people. A surprising amount. But you're talented and respectful with a solution to problems. That's what companies want. They have enough challenges, they don't want another one. haha! Congrats. Proud of you.

    At 39, I've been seeking fun ways to express myself creatively without talking so much since I'm an introvert. Definitely will check out videography/filmmaking.

    BW I admire the way you share your story, it inspires me, I never tried it once or even own the gears that you talked about but I believe that I will one day in the film making field and if there's a time permitting me to meet you then I will. Keep sharing you are helping changing the lives of people in the world. God bless your as you, continue on. Papua New Guinea.

    Salute to you BW for acknowledging and understanding your current position [then] , making a plan, and executing. I am an aspiring filmmaker and screenplay writer and it's been an amazing journey so far. Thanks again for sharing your story, knowledge, and expertise 🙏🏽💯

    So much value in this video 7:20 as creators we start creating content for other creators and forgetting the client's intentions.

    You've done a good job so far.
    Hopefully, you put out courses on different parts of the business of indie filmaking and the best places for a beginner to start.

    Also started as a dancer then went into filmmaking fulltime. That is why i resonated with your videos and relate on another level. I can also tell from your body language that you used to express your thoughts through other means before. Thank you for sharing this video Brandon!

    Dude, I'm so freaking proud of you. Babies need fathers. I have been a hobbyist and now that my wife and I have baby number two on the way, we have decided to try to go full-time film making, since it's the only job that I actually enjoy and want to do.

  • @PageLynch

    Love your channel and what you have to say, Brandon! I began my career in music, lots of concerts and cool opportunities. In 2009 I arrogantly thought I could shoot my own music videos if I bought nice gear... yeah, that didn't happen. Lol However, I kept working to understand the craft and eventually realized that I preferred video and photography to music. I quit music and never looked back. I've been a full time Director of Photography for over seven years now. I've debated jumping back into my long-abandoned RUclips channel to share my knowledge and experience with others. You're a great inspiration to all of us who are considering that route. Thank you for your content, Brandon! Peace be with you!

    I love hearing people's stories of how they got into this full-time! You started very young and it's worked out pretty well for you so far! I'm considering moving back to my home country next year so I can actually get film making jobs/freelance etc. Currently I live in Indonesia and I can't get a work permit easily to do that here.
