Actress dropped out and we payed rent for equipment and location and it cost the half of our budget 😁 luckily we found another actress for the whole film now I am editing it we gonna relese it soon, thanks studio binder for these amazing series 😍😘👏❤️
Honestly huge respect for including the disagreement in this episode. The reason this series has been so informative is because it’s felt so organic and honest. Great episode
That official shade at 9:24 though:) "But when you're asking me for insurance, when you don't even have a gear list? It does raise my hackles a little bit.." *That was the most elegant way to sum up how so many of us feel at times as producers. THANK YOU! And Kudos to this channel for including this part of the process.
Your channel is like university, I don’t even know how to describe your channel cause it gives you clear vision, cause it’s my dream to make a movie but I didn’t know I would need all this, I wish I’m one of your team guys, thank you all for sharing a such clips like this✌️
I appreciated the segment on insurance. Having worked insurance myself, no company will insure anything unless they know what the cost is FIRST of what they are insuring. Not a difficult concept to understand.
I don't fully understand the disagreement. Why didn't the dp/operator know what equipment he wanted to use for the insurance quote? Shouldn't he say what he wants, then the producer says yes or no? If yes they get an insurance quote....if no, the dp modifies his request and goes back to the producer?
I'm pretty sure he didn't know what his gear list was, because he didn't know how much money he had in the first place. I was confused too at first, but I guess it's just the low budget filmmaking hurdles
Wish more hollywood films did these documentaries and released them to the public with the dvds. Sure we get the bts footage but this is more personal and relatable
Wow this series have been a golden series since the beginning! I am inspired by how you guys are extremely genuine, informative as well as really humorous and close to the viewers. I'm looking forward to seeing more episodes of Making It, please don't stop doing it, thanks a lot!
Thank you so much! We have one episode left, so make sure to check it out once it's released. In the meantime, you can check out our blog that dives into shooting schedules further. www.studiobinder.com/blog/what-is-a-shooting-schedule/
Wow call sheets I don't think I knew of... I'm working as a boom Pole operator in my Film class and in a short film with my friend, I've learned something new from you guys every time 😊
This channel is great! There are video essays, behind the scenes works, tutorials and guides. Such an underrated channel that showcases the beauty of film practically for free.
This is so amazing, not only are you showing the entire process, but you're also not just showing the path of least resistance so we also get to see the potential problems that can arise and how to solve them. Also, the production quality and entertainment factor is on point. Subscribed!
Honestly Herman was in the right during the " argument " GIVE him the equipment list so he can get you insurance. Marvin asking for it with out even supplying him with a list of gear was stupid on his part. Make him the list and boom he can tell u how much you get. Simple as that.
As a DP myself I can say the DP here was wrong. How can you expect the producer to pull a magic trick because you didn't do a simple part of your job. He knew the producer wanted the gear list so h can get it approved by the insurance. he even told him the amount of money available in other episodes. From the very beginning, he seemed pretty money hungry.
These series were the most informative thing I've watched in a few last months. Thank you so much! Wish I could see behind that scenes of actual shoots...

I am working on a movie (still in the form of a script; pre-production has not happened yet) but I am taking advice from Studiobinder and being smart to write the gear list FAR in advance in preparation for the insurance coverage.
Absolutely beautiful! Even though I won't claim to have ever delved as deep into the full film production process the way your team has done while making this film, I can say (as a small indie film maker myself) that every part illustrated in this Series is relatable and I have learnt quite a lot from each episode. The struggles and hurdles of film production are real, and sometimes draining, but when the cake is all done and baked, it is worth it! Once you have the right crew, your film vision is one step away from being realised! Keep 'em coming - I'm a sub'er!
Ahhhhhh the sound guy! I had a sound guy drop out the week before the first feature I produced. Luckily the guy that we hired last second was a real pro and just happened to have the opening. He was actually the one who suggested we go ahead and shoot on a day where rain popped up. He was the real MVP.
Yes, you both were being hostile to Herman. And it was absolutely STUPID for Marvin to insist on insurance without Herman knowing WHAT to insure. Marvin: Get me insurance! Herman: For what? Marvin: JUST GET IT! Yeah, I don't think so. And the director should have seen that red flag and supported his producer, because NOW Herman knows that SC doesn't have his back.
StudioBinder! For real, this is probably one of the best pieces of content marketing that I’ve come by so far! And I have watched a lot of… Stuff on the Internet 😀🕺🏻🎥🏖🇦🇺
The producer CANNOT get insurance for air. This is common sense; you need to tell him what equipment you will need for the shots you want before he can get a quotation for the insurance. AMATEURS! I imagine the sound guy dropped out for a good reason, not related to his fears of his equipment getting wet.
It's been really inspiring following this series -- I'm working on a very ambitious short film project myself and know these challenges all too well...
I think there are some steps in this episode, which could be made before. For example the call sheets and the insurance. You can do that like months or weeks before.
So well done! I used to produce and direct music videos many years ago and sure could have used an informative video like this one. (We always made it work but with many hurdles).
This whole episode is just amazing. So much to learn as I will never be able to afford film school and these are my only resources available. Thank you to the entire team and God bless Studio Binder❤️
Thank your for this much serious content ,I am from NEPAL (a small diverse and beautiful country in Asia). I am in 12th studying biology but I am going to be filmmaker
It's so much like what happened before we shot the commercial that day In China, there is little awareness of buying insurance when shooting small advertisements. I want to ask you about Electrician?
Very good so far :) I am also interested in knowing the marketing process for these kind of smaller projects. If your production cost is $5643, how much funds would you allocate separately for marketing? What would be the most realistic way for someone with a tiny budget to actually get the content to an audience? Is it wiser to do webisodes if its a series and follow the normal TH-cam,Instagram, twitter promotions? If it's a 1 hr 30 min film, is TH-cam a viable option? Lastly, if you have a very successful project and you generate profits, how is this shared between the distributors, production, crew members, actors etc? A bit of information about royalty distribution.
damn it really gave me anxiety when the sound guy dropped out. can’t imagine how much stress u felt omg. i felt stressed and im just watching this at 4 am yet i feel like i want this project to suceed :)
In hindsight the "DP" acted like a complete d*** and the quality of his work (based on the final product shown in EP. 6 with photography being the one in the spotlight) doesn't justify such attitude, Herman really showns his knowledge of the biz, his capabilities as a producer, the other it's like he just wanted to have some toys to play with the day of shooting.
Man, that Herman certainly knows his stuff! If he was my producer I’d totally just do what he says as he seems really knowledgeable, and a nice guy. Bit passive aggressive though to say “if you don’t want me here you’re welcome to do it on your own” - bit annoying. But in his defence he was clearly in the right over Marvin.
TIPS for $500 insurance? My broker sent us a $1.5K quote. What general liability insurance would be good and cheap for only a 4 day film shoot in sumner?
So awesone that you guys didnt edit the fighting. Its a very important part of Preproduction:)...ps I think the DoP was a little arrogant from the start, but the producer should have stayed professional and not get emotional. :) 😁 jmtc
was the drama real or acted for the sake of teaching? LOL Somebody said Herman was not treated well here and didn't he say that he and the director were friends?
Our screenwriting software is actually free. You only pay if you want added features that help create shot lists, storyboards, call sheets, etc. from the screenplay you upload/create on it. Hope that helps and hope to see you get on board! 😊✌🏻🎬
Hmmm ... specific "Rented Equipment Insurance". Never heard of it nor have I been asked for it. In all my years of shooting, from rental houses in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Chicago, they have only asked that I list them on my business general liability insurance and provide them with a copy. I've only been asked once to specify exactly what I was renting.
Herman got alittle petty 😂 but I understand where he was coming from. Can't get the insurance if the DP doesn't guve him a gear list. He doesn't know what gearvhe can afford. Insurnace is mute atvthat point.
why is he hyper-sensitive? hahaha Seems very childish and can be handled like an adult next time. But, agreed that DOP needs to have equipment list ready.
It's not necessary to spend 3 - 4 minutes showing an argument. You could have done it in 30 seconds to make the point and then move on to the next subject - it's so annoying watching other people bicker; maybe keep that in mind when you're scripting your next faux-drama.

Gear malfunctions due to unstable updates, that were almost irreversible 🙃

So it really can rain in LA.

Great episode. Funny fight. Can't wait to see the final product!
This is such a cool episode. I am actually producing a film right now and you guys have been helping me thru out. Great work
love this series so much

9:37 Sorry, lots of questions -- where did the $900 come from? In previous videos it said he only had $650 dollars for his camera depo
you should just make a reality tv show about the drama behind Studio Binder
You might be onto something here 🧐
Yes, you both were being hostile to Herman. And it was absolutely STUPID for Marvin to insist on insurance without Herman knowing WHAT to insure.
Marvin: Get me insurance!
Herman: For what?
Marvin: JUST GET IT!
Yeah, I don't think so. And the director should have seen that red flag and supported his producer, because NOW Herman knows that SC doesn't have his back.
More information. In every single episode. I love it! I hope this movie will blow up! :D

Herman v Marvin was as intense as New York v. Hottie. When's the reunion?
Lmfao being worried that people will cancel because rain is the most LA thing I’ve ever heard 😂

Shouldn't this be titled Making it? Sense its apart of the same series
thanks a lot
Soooo... how did the insurance thing play out? 🤣😅 Herman was right btw.
That argument seemed a little forced and the guy on the left was obviously wrong.
i got a feeling it was fake for the sake of teaching.
tbh i wouldn't work with marvin, he acts 'too cool', idk how to explain it..
That's one uppity producer
TIPS for $500 insurance? My broker sent us a $1.5K quote. What general liability insurance would be good and cheap for only a 4 day film shoot in sumner?
