Thanks man and I hope this video in some way helps you in your career. If you ever have any questions about filmmaking, please feel free to reach out I would love to help.🙌🏻

I think separating Filmmaker from Videographer is important. Filmmakers are considered FILMmakers. Not VIDEOmakers. In the sense that they make narrative work with the exception of documentaries. Anything else is considered a videographer. I say this because I feel the term filmmaker is thrown around much too easily. Great video btw!
Yeah I can agree with that comment it is used out of context most of the time, However I have seen commercials and music videos that FEEL LIKE FILMS and I would defiantly consider those Directors and DP's FILMmakers.
@@Alexzarfatifilms yeah man! And I just got a good gig of 5 mini shorts documentaries to shoot this fall! I’m so pumped man!!! Thanks again for being that mentor that you talked about 🙏🏼

Very well articulated Alex! I can relate to everything you said from personal experience too. Opportunities come from your network. The more great people you meet, work with, become friends with the more opportunities will come. Have to always push yourself in to new situations to grow. Keep up the awesome work, loving your content :)
Thanks Matt I appreciate it brother🙌🏻 unfortunately it took me a long time to realize that and start actually investing time into people but ever since I did I have really grown in so many ways.
@@Alexzarfatifilms It took me a long time to realise it too. Its a big mindset shift. I a way behind you yet, but your videos always motivate me to keep pushing!
