Thanks so much Damien! It was a real trip down memory lane and gave me a renewed sense of gratitude. Thanks for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate the support!
I am going to save this video and watch it weekly to maintain my focus. Thank you so much! I am in a valley of disappear right now and I am not that young anymore. You can't even imagine how much positivity and hope this brought to me. If you ever decide to do a workshop in Dubai and need someone for behind the scenes I am at your service.
Wow that makes me so happy to hear! I still watch a few other videos from other creators that inspire me. If you can check out "The Gap" by IRA Glass on Vimeo by Daniel Sax, so powerful!!!
This is one of the most important and powerful advice I heared in my life. As an aspiring content creator, I will definitely watch this on repeat. Hands down!
4 minutes in. Why is this free? This is the best advice I've EVER seen. This is the kind of video to download and backup the most secure way, in case you ever do the "wipe it, delete all" thing again. woah!
Haha, love it! I don't think I'll ever wipe this video because I might have to hear it again somewhere down the line if I get distracted :) Thanks for your support mate!

I want to say, after hearing everything you’ve shared, that I just want to work with you, learn from you and your team and build a friendship. You’ve captured everything I’m looking for- a fresh perspective on my career, advice that truly fits my needs, and a supportive, reliable network of great people which I’m lack of. This is one of the most inspiring conversations I’ve heard so far. Thank you so much for your valuable tips!
Hello FRIEND, it has been said 100 times over how excellent this advice is, what stands out for me and what always hits the mark is your OPEN heart, filled with honesty and humility, I see your honesty and humility as you left and right feet that have taken you on your journey to a growing success. This film is packed with life lessons for anyone who is prepared to be patient in there application. Thank you for your valuable time crafting this one!!
David! Brother.. THANK YOU! You've been a great support on this journey and I'm sad that we didn't get to hang out more during the wedding days. Wishing you and your family all the best!!!
I’m left stunned, but inspired. The thing that grabbed me was to focus on making the kinds of videos I WANT to make, not just the ones that might sell. This video caught me at the right time as I was just starting to feel like I needed to vamp up random videos on social media and TH-cam. Thank you for your advice!
Dude this is so amazing and you can just there's no BS, no clickbait, just straight up legit meaningful advice! Honored to have worked with you once already!
@@jacques_crafford Thanks dude! That really means a lot! Can't wait for our next collab and also just to see you reach even more success! One of the most helpful dudes around!
Thanks so much Jacques for this. Your heart to encourage and inspire others and to share your journey with us means a lot. There's a lot of depth and sound advice here shared with honesty and integrity. God bless you and your family, your friendships and future endeavors.
I was about to waste the rest of the evening playing a video game because I feel stuck on the documentary I’m editing. You just motivated me to close Steam and open Resolve, and to buckle down and get the work done. THANK YOU.
BRO ARE YOU GETTING YOUNGER? You look so much happier and glowing. You inspire a lot of people, trust me it's hard to get to 100K+ without screaming at the camera or doing gimmicks, and you are like the Bob Ross of Cameras. You call them 1:02 , I call them Happy Little Accidents :)
Absolutely fascinating to see the magic behind the scenes! The dedication and creativity that goes into filmmaking are truly inspiring. Every moment captured in this BTS video highlights the hard work and passion of the entire crew. From the intricate setups to the collaborative spirit, it's amazing to witness how a vision transforms into reality. Thank you for sharing this glimpse into the filmmaking process-it’s a reminder of the artistry and teamwork that make these films so incredible!
Valuable as always! The difference between now and all your other advise videos is that it hits me at a time where I’m trying to implement most of these Tipps especially the one where Social media will not affect my work. I’m in Transition
So glad to hear that! Mate I can give you so many examples of how Social Media slowed me down. It's also the reason I moved from Instagram to TH-cam because it slots in well with the long form content I enjoy making!
Thank you for constant inspiration, Jacques! You're one of the reasons I still push hard through all the struggles in my life to make the carrier in filmmaking that I'd really enjoy!
I can't begin to tell you how on time this video is. THANK YOU! I've been feeling stuck for awhile and the advice you shared here really hit home. I love the humility part, too!
Jacque! im so grateful to have watched this video, you are one of the few filmmakers i follow and this is the best advice so far in my 8 years of career a s a videographer. Thank You for this amazing Video! God bless you more and more!
This is really good. Thank you so much. This is perhaps the best video I've ever watched in terms of career advice. Genuine content, and because of that, you've earned yourself a new subscriber.
Wow, thank you! I'm so happy you feel this way because I honestly didn't think this video will do well but I've been dying to make it so I just did it!
I've been saying Tip #3 to myself for a while now, even just earlier today. Being a hermit isn't going to lead anywhere, I actually NEED to befriend some likeminded people locally who I naturally tend to see as "competition". Great vid, beautiful work too. Have a sub.
I have to admit that this video suddenly WOKE ME UP from my wandering and lost in defining the right goal for videography. Thank you so much bro for making this advising video 🤝 I'm so thankful 👏
Mic Drop. This is so inspiring my friend. I needed to hear this. After knowing you for many years I can testify of your kindness and heart. Bless you brother.
Thank you, Jacques! It felt like watching a movie.. Could name some of the advices that were the most impacting for me, but i just say that I have the feeling everyone in the industry can get something out of this and change their view of perspective.
Jacques, you have no idea how encouraging these tips are to me. I have zero desire to imitage trends for the algorithm, but I care deeply about the work I make. Then, "winning relationships between friends". Yeah. That hits hard. Actually that’s how I’ve tried to go about it and it’s not even that hard. You meet people, and the ones you get along with the best and share creative visions, you keep working with. And it’s actually enjoyable. Finally, I wholeheartedly agree with the values you talk about. As a Christian, I deeply believe in these values anyway, but it’s so encouraging to hear that living by them actually pays off. P.S.: I think your music selection was absolutely amazing. Good ad for musicbed, even before the ad read. ;)
I couldn't thank you more for these beautiful tips and message! It's time to change and do what I enjoy instead of trying to follow the trends. THANK YOU! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
No. 5 hit me right in the gut. I used to work a lot with a friend whom I swore I’d never work with again. But to be honest, the projects we did all turned out awesome. I remember the last big project was kind of a pain because he and I built up some tension, and we almost had an argument in front of the whole crew. Now I realize that was because we were pretty angry with each other since we hadn’t been spending enough time together and hadn’t taken care of our friendship. We met last week, and he was super grateful to see me. Honestly, we had great times when we saw each other almost every day. We never argued, and the projects (although small and not very important, and never released) went smoothly. We just had a great time. You encouraged me to take more steps toward him and to repair the bridge I was trying to burn. Thanks! :)
Aaah man I'm so happy to hear that! I've had a few of those experiences, things can get messy when you work closely together but if you can put the work aside and keep the friendship that's the biggest win!
This is great man thanks for sharing, I am attracted by how someone speaks to everyone, respecting the people your working with is key. that was a power point.
Bravo ❤ you confirm everything I knew deep inside but got distracted because of the social media hype. Which led to lethargy deep inside me and started killling my creativity. You also gave me new inspiration to work with and acknoledge the creativity and input of a team, friends and … it all just mekes sense 🙌👍👏👏👏
@@jacques_crafford Well thank God you did man. Cause the points in this video is 💯 life changing if applied properly! Thank you so much for all the stunning works you're putting out here. I'll be sure to follow you on all your socials.
Haha indeed! I've been thinking about making a video like this for the longest time but I felt like I had to mature a bit more and it felt like 15 years was a good time. Appreciate your support mate!
And you do what you say. The truths that you delivered were just that… True and true again. But your filmmaking and storytelling in this little 15 project was sublime, relaxing, joyous, creative and proof that the things you believe have paid off.
Love it, Thank you for this inspirational video brother. I felt i have already fallen into many of the problems you have mentioned. Forget the Likes and Focus was the main take away for me...
Thanks my bru, really grateful to have had your support through the years. Your journey has always been inspiring and I love how you just broke the internet with your wild ideas. Wish we had more time to hang out.
Broooo! Thanks for sharing. Knowing that there's room for improvement is a great driving force to go forward!!! I'm excited to see your journey unfold!
So many nuggets of wisdom here!!! Well worth the watch even for someone who has been in the industry a while :) thanks for sharing your heart Jacques and happy to have been a tiny fan on that spark of your creativity. That trip changed my life too!!
CHELSEA!!! Aaaah thank you so much for watching, means the world to me! I can make an entire video just about how much I've learned from you and how much you've inspired me. I'm forever grateful to Kylor for introducing us and I will always treasure our trips, it literally changed my life!!! Hope to bump into you again sometime soon :)
Thank you soo much for this! I really love your work, and your art of thinking! I know.. unfortunately i have never met you in person.. but i think it must be amazing to get to know you and built up a friendship with you as you mentioned 🙌🏽🔥
I feel like I should have paid for this content. This is gold advice on career building. Also a good shot in the arm to keep going. Thanks Jacques. I needed this.
i found your words very emotional. it hit me. loved every words you said. thank you so much man. i really needed this. this is so far the best ever speech on youtube about filmmaking journey. stay blessed
My RESOLVE Grading Course is open again jacquescrafford.shop/grading-course-enroll
"The most successful creators aren’t always doing the best work & the most talented creators aren’t necessarily the most successful." 7:42
That one hit me hard when I realised it! So many under appreciated talented filmmakers out there!!!
Hands down the BEST "advice for filmmakers" video I've ever watched. Thanks Jacques! Love your work!
by far id say.
Thanks so much Damien! It was a real trip down memory lane and gave me a renewed sense of gratitude. Thanks for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate the support!

Ah dude so honored to be mentioned. Always amped to watch your next video. Thanks for everything you do
Thanks Andre, you've been a great friend through and through even when I moved away you always stayed in touch! Super grateful for that :)
I am going to save this video and watch it weekly to maintain my focus. Thank you so much! I am in a valley of disappear right now and I am not that young anymore. You can't even imagine how much positivity and hope this brought to me. If you ever decide to do a workshop in Dubai and need someone for behind the scenes I am at your service.
Wow that makes me so happy to hear! I still watch a few other videos from other creators that inspire me. If you can check out "The Gap" by IRA Glass on Vimeo by Daniel Sax, so powerful!!!
@@jacques_crafford Thank you! Will do.
This is one of the most important and powerful advice I heared in my life. As an aspiring content creator, I will definitely watch this on repeat. Hands down!

Very solid advice. I think it is so important to be humble, forgiving and the ability to stay focused on your goals and you describe this so well!
So glad you resonated with these values, it's the foundation of a fulfilling career!
I was about to waste the rest of the evening playing a video game because I feel stuck on the documentary I’m editing. You just motivated me to close Steam and open Resolve, and to buckle down and get the work done. THANK YOU.
