Man, your channel is the best IMO. Your advice is practical and relatable and you share your horror stories. I really appreciate your authenticity!
No questions, just leaving a comment on the board so others will join because people need to support your channel. You really have good content 🙏🏾
Clifton your the man brother I appreciate it man! Little by little we’re growing.
I've been doing this for 10 years and I still get so much value from your content. Thanks for sharing!
All of your videos are pure gold for film-making info
Thanks brother🙌🏻
I just found your channel this week and I am been hooked on your content!! The advice and tips and visuals are truly inspiring and I can not get enough. I love the BTS of your pre production schedule. And I will definitely use Mila note for my pre production. I was wondering what website do you use to get the still shots of how you want your doc to look? You had stills from the joker and other movies.
Keep up the amazing work!!
What’s up Caleb! Thanks for the kind words brother. For the stills I used Shotdeck. Another good site for that is Frameset. Really glad you’re enjoying the content. Let me know if you ever have any questions in the future.🙏🏻
@@Alexzarfatifilms awesome thank you so much for the response. Really excited to see your channel and skills grow. I'm here for the long haul!!
@@calebjscott thanks brother very glad to hear that
Thanks for sharing in so much detail Alex, super helpful!
this is awesome! love mila note! where do you get your mood board images from?
Thanks Tiago is Shotdeck
Four months ago, Navalny was still alive. You have a frame from his documentary on your mood board.
informative video
Just gained yourself a sub man
Hey Alex, great video especially for me working on pre-production for my first doc right now! At what time would you recommend to do the interviews? For your doc 'Rise' you shot them after the fight if I'm not completely wrong. Did you still shoot some of the b-roll stuff after the interviews or was everything seen shot ahead?
Thanks in advance and keep it up!
Hey brother, great question I actually shot all the interviews before the fight. And luckily I had what I needed to tell the story the way I wanted to but that’s not always the case I always suggest doing pre-and post interviews for whatever documentary or topic you’re working on that way you could get authentic responses before the event, or in this case of fight, and then you can get the reaction after the fact.
@@Alexzarfatifilms yeah I was also thinking about doing one interview before and one after. There is just no chance to make the setup look the same, how would you work around that?
Great work sir!! Killed this video 🔥🔥
Thanks brother
