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

I love how these videos are still so underground
I'm enjoying the series, but personally I must say that the most emotional moments for me, are not those in which conflict is heightened but when a character makes a selfless choice to help somebody else. The bigger the sacrifice and the more hopeless is the recipient (he or she who benefits from the sacrifice) the more emotional the moment becomes.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. Excellent comment.
A good example is when Butch decides to help Marsellus in Pulp Fiction a great moment in my opinion.
I learned that when we as writers elicit emotion, when we care for our characters, our readers, audience has a chance of caring and this is why, we stay to root for the hero, to see what happens. We , the audience, become invested in the hero's conflict being resolved and learn something from it in the process. Thanks, Michael sir, for this gift.
And thank you for your insightful comment, found it highly helpful
I never really thought of using the turning point as a way for the audience to relate to the character! I think this will absolutely help me going forward when coming up with ideas for the perfect 1st turning point! Thank you film courage, you all are changing lives!
Plot point 2 is crucial where we know the goal. Protagonists fall and rise and finally reach the goal. More obstacles/stakes will root the audience for the characters.
This man is so wise
Love these talks!
#1 have a desire to give the characters direction to move
#2 have a conflict to get emotions (by make characters wanting the same desire so they moves in conflict )
i keep that words to
Wow! Our brain has been wired that way! Amazing!
I'm back . Time to finish my screenplay .
Another pair of movies that paraell what Michael is say is 'SEABISCUT' and 'ROOM'.
Great channel, but there is a question I didn't find an answer to it.
Do the non-English speaker and non US citizen have a chance to enter the industry, specially in Hollywood?
Oualid Zibar if you want a chance then do everything it takes to grab it.
Here is a film on the subject. I don't know where you could get a hold of a copy but it looks like it might answer some of your questions. www.imdb.com/title/tt2061684/
this man reffed Hitch which is how you know he's the real deal
does a script have to have a goal?
Yes. Always. 100% no exceptions.
really ?? Putting the words "Bad guys" instead of "Terrorist" in CC , just because he referces to americans !
these guys are quacks who make things complicated in order to keep writers in a panic. These gurus try to turn creativity into a shit storm of formulaic crap. I still listen to them though haha
Quite the contrary, he simplifies the writing.
Says the guy who asked “does a script have to have a goal?”
There is something to "art for art's sake", but it's hard to deny a formula that has resonated with humans for centuries.
Lol
He is the author of "Writing Screenplays that Sell". I think he says in his book that you can break the rules and do things differently and be artsy, but you're probably never going to sell your screenplay. Hollywood WANTS formulaic.
