I show why filmmakers should stop waiting around for the perfect movie idea and instead focus their creativity on how to execute an idea they may already have. 📬 Make stronger films in a few minutes every week (my free newsletter): https://www.standardstoryco.com/ ✍️ Learn to write no-budget short films that work: https://standardstoryco.com/blueprint/ 🤝 Work with me 1-on-1: https://standardstoryco.com/consultat... 🎓 Join my practical 30-day film school: https://wrapped.school 🤳 Keep up w/ me on IG: / standardstoryco 📹 My current filmmaking gear: Main Camera - https://amzn.to/475LBbO Main Lens - https://amzn.to/476Whag B-roll Camera - https://amzn.to/3q27OEq Camera Monitor/Recorder - https://amzn.to/33ruCBB Lights: https://amzn.to/3QwDqxo Computer - https://amzn.to/3JnE8t7 Tripod - https://bhpho.to/43975mD Microphone - https://amzn.to/3evKfhJ Sound Recorder - https://amzn.to/3FrwrkS My desk setup- https://kit.co/kentlamm/kent-s-desk-s... 🎵 Where I get my music (2 months free): https://bit.ly/3HIcaYK Business inquiries: [email protected] About me: I've been making short films for 20 years, starting at age 11. I directed my first feature film, Bad is Bad, in 2010. Made for only $6,000, the film went on to reach over 7 million views and garner critical acclaim. More recently, my short film, Will "The Machine", screened and won awards at film festivals around the world. Released online in 2019, it reached over 1 million views in just a month. I also work as a video editor, cutting ads for clients such as Apple, Netflix, and Beats by Dre. DISCLAIMER: Links in this description might be affiliate links.
