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/425k5rG
Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/3WEuz0k
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

Roger E Mosley from Magnum PI said the same thing. We were at a party and someone asked him how to get into acting and be successful. He said, “Talent.” True story.
One of the most thoughtful conversations/interviews I've ever seen on acting and the acting business. Karen's questions and overall conducting of the conversation and responsive yet uninterrupting listening is always brilliant. Thank you so much, Karen and Michael.
I’m a school counselor for K-6, and the piece about how the strategy for the scene, project, career, and life is all the same thing is totally relevant. You kind of go in and out of being a director and an actor, and the kids know it and love you for it-if you respect the life force and embrace it.
Every actor,old and new, should watch this till the end....This is brilliant and insightful.
I’m not even in the biz, am a blogger / writer-for-self in Florida… but 5:30 am every day at Stbx… I use Film Courage to get me into my own skin to write. ❤️🙏🏻❤️
BRAVO!!! I absolutely agree with Michael Laskin! It's either you have it, or you don't.
Took me two days to be with this. I’m so grateful! Thank you, this was awesome ❤
Love to hear that! Thank you for spending your time with us!
Lovely interview, I hope you watched Tropic Thunder afterwards ;)
This was very informative thank you all for this..
We like this one. Thanks for watching!
Thank u on prefection. I had to let go of burden of prefect and how much time u losses with this mind set. I appreciate that and ur work. Branching out now letting go of prefetion. Bless ur day
This is going to be a good one
I definitely agree with instincts
Incredible interview 5 minutes in and I absolutely love this! Thank you!
Great to hear!
@@filmcourage Erica is also fantastic! I rewatch her interview with you guys often ❤️
That “talent” needs a push, plot practice, to let out. You also need many opportunities to try your roles
I agree, not that I think that I have any kind of talent, but I really think you just cannot teach something like that. Yet you can learn it.

12:44 How "they" reconcile that? I guess he is part of the ones with talent... And ppl with lots ambition and little talent... are alien to him. I say... Madonna is a great example of that. Used to be a fan...
Ya Madonna was a terrible actress. Great performance though and dancer
Aim high to hit in the middle? That does not sound as success at all. How about realistic expectations? Yet ego for sure is the fuel of the genius....
Define "realistic".
