🎥 Have you ever had to hire a crew in another city or country? It can be pretty scary if you don't find the right partner and vet them properly. I've been on both sides of this crew equation. As a Director of Photography, I've welcomed and worked with clients from around the world, and as a Producer/Director I've had to hire crews in other cities. So I put together this guide to help producers find teams outside their usual circles, and also to help crew attract out of town clients. It covers: ✅ How to vet local crews from afar ✅ What to look for in reels and references ✅ Going rates for different crew positions ✅ How to book and contract with crews ✅ How a quick pre-pro call can save your shoot As part of my research, I interviewed some of the leading crewing agencies on their roles in connecting clients to the crews they need. 👉 Read the full guide here: https://lnkd.in/gQpSNKMB Big thanks to those who contributed to this article: Crew Connection, Crews Control Inc, Jill Woo, The Crew Company, Kim Moseman, Katy Henthorne, David Henthorne, Aleah Williams, Ally Nalibotsky, Teri Miller, & Debbie Camper #cameracrew #filmcrew #videocrew #videoproduction

🚀 This one’s for all film editors, storytellers, and visual creators! I recently read In the Blink of an Eye by Walter Murch — and trust me, it’s not just another book on editing. It’s a masterclass on storytelling through cuts, emotions, and rhythm. Written by the Oscar-winning editor of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, this book completely changed how I see my timeline while editing. If you’re someone who edits, directs, or simply loves cinema — this one will upgrade your creative instincts. 🎥 📚 Watch the short breakdown I made about it below — and tell me your biggest takeaway about editing or storytelling. #FilmEditing #WalterMurch #Storytelling #VideoEditing #Filmmaking #PostProduction #EditorLife #CreativeMindset #Cinematography #LinkedInCreators #Learning #InTheBlinkOfAnEye

We often hear that fear holds us back, but what if it's not fear itself, but our perception of self-worth? Lydia Kimmerling shares an eye-opening story in our latest episode that challenges the conventional wisdom. Picture this: a successful accountant, stuck in a corporate rut, yearning for something more. She had a hidden passion—photography—but her camera was collecting dust in a shoebox. The leap from accountant to photographer seemed insurmountable, not because of fear, but because she didn't believe she was worthy of her dreams. Lydia's gentle approach helped her client take baby steps, each one a shift in energy and self-perception. From taking photos of her town to moving to Ibiza and becoming a full-time photographer, she transformed her life by realizing her own worth. Is it possible that the real roadblock isn't the fear of failure, but the fear of not being 'enough'? Listen to Lydia's insights and rethink what might truly be holding you back.
