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
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

"Just one more inspirational video...then I'll get back to writing."
-
This quote keeps me going every time I sit down to write: "The worst thing you do write is better than the best thing you don't write."
-
"Write badly with pride." Powerful statement for any writer. Great insight from these professionals.
-
The best thing to do is go to bed early. Get up early in the morning. Stumble to the keyboard and start writing before you get coffee, etc. Do that every day - holidays, weekends, etc. Even if you only write for 60 minutes before work.

"A plumber doesn't have plumber's block" 😂 Now that is slap your face wake up and get writing advice !!! Keeping it real. Love it !! ❤

writers write. talkers talk. you won't move forward if you don't walk the walk.
-
So basically, stop watching this video, get to work haha.

"Plummers dont have plummers block," well said my guy.
-
Creating change in my life . No more self inflicted wounds .
-
Discipline is the lifeblood of a professional writer. Superb, clear "how-to" guidance. Thanks!
-
I'm a perfectionist and struggle with "analysis paralysis", I've accumulated so many notes and outlines over the years that its overwhelming knowing where to start. I need to just pick one and get a script completed instead of trying to get it perfect the first time, this reminded me - great video!
-
Writers tend to be perfectionists so this is perfect motivation to just get it done.
-
The GRIND is the only thing required . I got this like a yawn in the morning .
-
Feel the fear and do it anyway. It's better to write junk than not write anything at all.
-
I was the TA in a class at SF State called "Writers On Writing" where we scheduled a different writer to come in every week to talk to students about their work & their process. On week a student asked Leonard Wolf if he wrote every day. Leonard responded: "I go out with my bucket every day; it does not rain every day." That was over 40 years ago but I've always thought he nailed it.
-
Plumber's block. I nearly fell out of my chair.
-
The way I see it writing is just like drawing. While its possible, pros don't usually start from scratch to the end in one sitting. They sketch something up, then add details, add shadows and highlights... That's rendering. And that's how I write, I lay out the basis, the ideas that pop up, what I want to achieve, I then add characters, stir things up a little with the feedback from the characters personalities and so on and so on... Eventually you'll have a finished story.
-
Dig in and handle it .
-
This is the best “content” out there. I hate that word but you know what I mean. You don’t need to be a writer to gain from this. These are professionals who are committed to their work and anybody can learn from this
