Stuff we use:
CAMERA - This is the camera we have used to film 90+% of our interviews (over 200 interviews and counting) It continues to be our workhorse - amzn.to/2u66V1J
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

The most important thing, and this from experience, just do it, don't wait for all your ducks to follow in a line ..The biggest problem is procrastination. It is a very big problem and the reason why most of us fail, because we never start. Remember, the road to success is different for each and everyone of us and no two paths are the same...So make your own story and start now.
Thanks for this. I saw a book at Barnes & Noble yesterday- Twelve Tips to Stop Procrastinating. I’m gonna pick up a copy next week.😊
Thanks, and all the best! @@philipgardiner2003
Running your own production company is not a joke... Contracts, taxes, dealing with clients, dealing with law suits and more, like marketing... It's not "let's hold a camera and film". If you want to do that full time then go work for a production company. Opening one is almost 100% biz and little art. I learned this the hard way. :)
What's your experiences?
Any business IS 100% business. If you saw this as something else, then that's entirely your fault. It has nothing to do with the nature of business. It's related to how you handle and run the business.
Or did you do it the hard way?
I want to start a video production company in the future.
Look folks, we are living in the best time to start a business, especially one that is made for social media. This industry, is changing drastically, thanks to the internet, and this is your chance to make your Mark. Great book, to Read - Crush It by Gary Vee.
Just from the first sentence of your comment, I had a feeling you were a Gary Vee fan lol. 100% agree with you! You have to at least try. If you're young and you fail, it'll make for a great memory when you're older. Either that or painful regret
NerdLens Studios thanks, and all the best.

I’ve just set up Big Elephant Pictures in London 🇬🇧
Thank you for these amazing videos
This actually helped me boost my confidence in managing my video production that I'm starting now. I've been having problems with looking for clients especially if you have so many competitors in the market. I even made my own video showreel in my own channel :)
I plan on starting an international media production corporation.
The Life And Times Of The Unconventional That produces what? Movies?
I plan on producing documentary’s, true crime thrillers, Tv shows and romance/drama. I’m still in the planning stages, but I have a global vision for my corporation
SDPRZ Based out of Washington D.C.
The Life And Times Of The Unconventional Sounds great, work hard and work smart every day and you can achieve it
Thanks I appreciate your comments. This journey will take decades to manifest and come to fruition, but I’m focusing on solidifying my foundation.
Can't help saying your audio is great. Crisp.
I started a small production company called Mirror 2 Mirror Production with my girlfriend two years ago.
It was funny because I had been cast as a dancer on a commercial and it reminded me how much I wanted to make movies when I was younger and so did my girlfriend so in staid starting out working only on set we and since we were both dancers we started making film like dance videos that had an underlying story and soon a bunch of other people wanted some dance videos and we made a couple to learn some more and then moved on to music videos.
Our team has grown a little and right now we're working on two music videos, a couple presentation videos, a commercial and are in pre-production of a short film about doing what you love to do in life so that it gives you fulfillment vs doing something you don't like or just make money off.
And we are also in really, really early pre-production of a psychological thriller feature film that is intended to shake the belief of our own existence and reality and the main protagonists fight with his own sanity.
For the future I'm hoping that we get to produce many more feature films because film production and story telling trough film has always been a desire of mine.
Also thanks for giving us courage and inspiration and good luck to everybody with their dreams and aspirations.
You are proof, that if you put your love or passion into something you love, the rest will follow..
Most people, wait and wait, just to start something and they never get around doing it...So good for you, and I wish you all the success...
@@luckyboypictures Thank you. Well I do love film-making but I am still restrained by time. So many things to do and so little time. But I'm always excited whenever we do a new project. :)
Vital Butinar well said my friend, but life is so funny, and I mean that in a nice way, because it (filmmaking) could lead to something great,
That is an interesting film. I write my own my own material. I want to open up my own film production company. My agent talk me into doing it because he felt people would benefit more off my material then me just writing it, getting a check and that's it. I just don't know what kind of film production company. I don't know if there is more than one. Trying to find information now. However, good luck to you!!
What happened to that movie
I have a production company, Brown Boi Productions, LLC. I’m in the process of adding to the team now.
Are there many different type's of a film production company? If there are, can you describe them? Thank you for the time...
Nosik Studios..... We're bout to storm Nollywood ⚡
Yes I do have a production company and its called KeyCitu Enterprise.
Haha funny, Im doing a business project where I make a business plan for a theoretical company, and I was really stuck on parts of it and needed a break, but this helps thank you.
Do you guys mind releasing videos one a week? There's so much to go through during the week that I end up not watching
This seems exactly like me i started my company when i was 13
How did that work out?
Same
I started a sort-of production company when I was fresh out of high school and I was not ready for it. I also took some really strange advice from a person who was supposed to know and never even registered a name for the company. I guess legally my first and last name was the name of the company. I had it for occasional jobs, but had months without income. Because I had no income I sometimes forgot to file taxes those months. It happened 4 times. Starting a company is great, but make sure you're ready for it. It's not until now, some 10 years later, that I start feeling like I want to do it again, but it's partly because I failed so hard the last time.
I'm working on setting up my production company.
Me too .. Let us shine
I write my own material. Same here.
I have these ides I want to make into short films but I don’t know how to start nor 2 pennies to put into it but I do have an iPhone and a camera
@@c2yodoe492 Use your iPhone, it's awesome. You can also get locals to work with you for free.
Same. I want one after uni. Let's hope all of us succeed!!! Good luck!!
For some reason, I thought of the same thing around my early 20s
It was going to be called Twilight Cinema Productions was the idea.
You should do it follow your dreams, take out a loan and produce a good movie. It's hard but I'm sure you can do it.
Start it now, look things happen for a reason, and with your age, comes experience in life and business. So do it now.
It sounds like a very cool idea !! I would combain my passion and my career, what I like and what I'm good at: filming and business
Omg I am 13 and this is literally my life so far
Don't veer off that path. I was the same way, and after many years that I lost, I am finally back in the game. STAY FOCUSED, and maybe YOU can be the youngest Academy Award winner.
@@718films88 thanks this has made my day
