This is where so many film makers go wrong at 11.40 .
So many mistakes and misdirections could be resolved by communication and clarity right from the get go.
A lovely reminder to have Vlad and the team.

Absolutely! Communication and clarity are crucial in any creative process. It's always a good reminder to make sure everyone is on the same page from the beginning. Thanks for watching Bronson!

Experience matters. Everyone makes mistakes and those succeed, who learn from their mistakes.

[@FilmmakerEntrepreneur]

Right on! Make mistake - learn, make mistake - learn. It’s a never ending process.

Wow! I saw this video at the right moment in my life. I am one of these people that were practically in "survival mode" great part of 2023.
Right now I am at a point where I feel that I need to give the next step in my career, and that means not only explore new genres and styles in video creation, also make very important changes in my promo strategy to reach new clients and projects and how I manage my business.
This video was very useful to become aware about certain specific aspect I have been failing during a long time (I already was working on improving some of them, before watching this video).

[@FilmmakerEntrepreneur]

I'm so glad this video came at the right time for you! It sounds like you're ready to take your career to the next level and make some exciting changes. Best of luck on your journey! Remember to be flexible and pivot.
