►WE USE THIS CAMERA (B&H) - buff.ly/3rWqrra
►WE USE THIS SOUND RECORDER (AMAZON) - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
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

Do you meditate? Has it helped you?
No.
I do love making fun of those who do, though. Please, keep meditating.
@@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253who hurt you?
@@thatperformer3879 Other people's stupidity hurt me. Does every day. And I learned to enjoy laughing at it in return.
You in the business of being stupid ? My kind of guy. Can work with that.
I remember a meditation guru saying you can't both count and doubt; the counting may seem pointless but it gives your brain something to do instead of worrying and making yourself anxious, it's a great way to start something with fresh mind.
Valuable thought, thanks for posting!
Really enjoyed this gentleman. He explained the technique clearly, without too much jargon. Gonna try his suggestions before I forget the wisdom he passed on...
Great to hear! Thanks Gary!
I studied Alexander technique for many years and it brought me out of chronic leg pain. I use it in daily movement. It shows you how to stop, then NOT move in your habitual way. We learn to spot how you always react. Unwinding that and NOT moving for a moment before moving, that makes a huge difference.
Thanks for sharing Bob! Great to hear that you were able to use the Alexander Technique to rid yourself of that pain!
Alternativeli, circulation from head to toe or vice versa for a few minutes can make body active, brisk and vibrant.
Circulation technique can be used anywhere. It drives off lethargy
I love @filmcourage 💖 Storytelling is not a practice that exists or happens in a vacuum. The w/holistic approach to the (filmmaking) process presented in your content is refreshing and informs a richer overall experience (for me). Thank you! 🙏🏽
This was awesome
Thank you!
