I noticed they all have the right shoes for the job, Whats on your feet is important for those long shoot days lol.

It's quite interesting to see that even on larger productions, the feelings and thoughts I have on my tiny productions are more similar to the industry standard than I originally thought. I'm going to try and lean into the "differently right" mindset more often haha

Wow to think that the experts still struggle with the same things that beginners struggle with is liberating. The complexity of filmmaking towers over us all

Best way to start to morning. Gets me ready for a day full of learning about film.

most important bit, espacially if youre not the dp. if its not your place, dont say anything. even if you think you have the answer or something is going horribly wrong.
if youre not a head of and you have an idea, go to your head of, he/she will tell you why youre wrong, or give your advice to the people who need it.

Anyone know which scene of which movie the thumbnail is from?!

[@dp_zee]

if you make a mistake.. tell them you did it on purpose then make up a steller reason why you went with that

[@collinausbury]

If this is the full interview, my dude on the right wanted to speak so badly.

[@suryo_utomo]

I think subtitles/lower third is too small, name and description can't read properly 🙏👍👏
