Hey it's Michael and Dustin! Have you ever wondered how the rhythm of videography work shifts with the seasons, or what really goes on behind the scenes of your favorite indie films? Well then get ready to be rocked to your very core as we peel back the curtain on the industry.
As we gaze (no homo) toward the horizon of the film industry's future, we don't shy away from the harsher truths. This candid conversation takes you from the bustling indie scene in Atlanta (that's a joke) to the global production stage, tackling the unsettling job market and the reality of working on passion projects versus big studio gigs (there are none). Discover how we're embracing adaptability and resilience, the secret ingredients for surviving and thriving in creative careers (drug use).
Rounding out this insightful talk (yeah right), we dive into the nitty-gritty of videography tech, from the dream features of the ideal camera to the practicality of matching camera setups. It's the kind of chat that could save you time and money on your next shoot, and maybe even inspire your career's next move (like doing anything other than becoming a videographer). We wrap things up with some personal reflections on the uncertainties facing our industry, the balance of life's commitments, and a light-hearted sign-off that'll leave you wanting more—just like a good film should.
