Every single opportunity I’ve ever had as a freelance filmmaker started with one message. one conversation. one moment where I decided to just ask. most people don’t do it because it’s uncomfortable. because what if they say no. because what if they don’t even reply. But here’s what nobody tells you — the filmmakers who find work aren’t the most talented ones. they’re the ones who show up and ask. You have nothing to lose. silence is survivable. staying invisible is not. The most important skill in a freelance filmmaker’s career has nothing to do with your camera, your editing, or your reel. it’s the courage to shoot your shot. So send that message. reach out to the artist, the production company, the brand. start the conversation. because nobody is going to do it for you. if this is something you needed to hear today, follow along — there’s more coming ✌🏼

This is the space i wish i had when i started as a freelance filmmaker. A place to learn the real side of video making — the problems, the slow days, the moments where you have to figure it out on your own. Nobody tells you what freelance filmmaking actually looks like behind the scenes. the uncertainty, the hustle, the creative process that never really stops. i’m not here because i have all the answers, i’m here because i’ve been through enough to share something real — and i’m still learning every single day. This is “it’s part of the process” a series about the reality of building a creative career in filmmaking, and honestly, this series itself is part of mine. if any of this resonates and you’re figuring it out too, follow the journey 🫶🏼
