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/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

Here is our full interview with Jason -

[@compellingpeople]

The guy taking to comedy out of the joke is hilarious in itself.

[@AltairZielite]

Jason is one guest that always has me jotting down a page of notes. More Jason!

[@PixelateForWork]

Some uploads ago, a tip was asking: what is their goal? What is their flaw?

[@jurelkirklandfilms2510]

This was one of my favorites for sure! He gave me everything I needed

[@SkorpyoTFC]

Exactly what I needed right now. Excellent piece.

[@chasehedges6775]

Love this content.

[@piripi40]

This is gold, thanks so much

[@mageprometheus]

Thank you. Another gem! 💜

[@BionicDance]

My problem as a writer has been that I can make up great elements to a story, but I have no idea how to put them together.

[@treasey8655]

it's crazy how the world works sometimes. This morning I was working on a pivotal character for my story so this came at exactly the right time! Thanks

[@chasehedges6775]

Love this guy.

[@chasehedges6775]

“What is this main character’s drive?”

[@ram2862]

Certainly, Sir Jason's designing tips of character formation for story is the most practical, essential and complete guide, coming to know for the first time. The questionnaire is the best way. Immense thanks to both Mr.Jason and Film courage.

[@wpgitchick]

Makes sense. These are questions I asked myself years ago to understand who I was.

[@gvphdYT]

I’m going to rewatch this on May 4th.

[@bobwolf58]

Thank you! So helpful since i find this so hard.

[@colinbluth5461]
