focus on the product. that’s how people will decide where to put you, what shelf, how close to thier heart.
.
on here, the process (noise) seems to market better than the product (your thing), but in the real world, it all starts and ends at the product. use whatever noise to steer people towards your product, fair game. scream , shout, whatever you gotta do. Judgment call will be when they see the movie, the shirt, the bag, the book, the poetry. At the end of it, if they dont feel anything, all the noise before was a waste of thier time.
There’s is only few shots where this happen. Where the crew is glued to the monitor, we have all lost count on takes, the reset time between takes shrinks and the pressure of not making the day grows.
Amidst all the choas and nerves, there is this one take, where the film gods bless you with a GLARE. The moment I saw on the onboard monitor, I was holding my breath on the dolly hoping I don’t fuck up the rest of the take. I heard the director call cut, releived I walked outside to see if we got it.

The room was estatic, crew geeking and @cielo.yb was damn near in tears. I remember my gaffer @steven_dillard coming up to me and saying “This might be the favorite shot we have done so far“ and trust me we have done a lot of shots together. And ofcourse, club’s favorite the lighting transition (slide 2)

Your style won’t magically appear.
It’s built by trying, failing, and trying again.
Do more.
Experiment more.
That’s how taste develops.
That’s how you find your voice
