    I’m 23 able to make a living off only a canon rebel and 70D! No help from family they actually told me to get a job and never believed in me..kicked me out was homeless, started shooting more videos/ saved and got my own spot and still at it 🙏🏼 I can’t wait to get a RED & So much more equipment. I’m just here to say anything is possible just believe in yourself and craft 🎥

      Aye Dummy, litterly just watched your shuffle videos yesterday. I was so surprised realising that you've shot a video for Trippie Redd. Your dance videos aged well honestly, I still look into them regularly and I'm happy how everything turned out for you man.

      Same, I really relate to this kid but I kinda feel left out since I'm muslim :P. I bought his exact setup a few months ago - a GH4, sigma 18-35 and a (much cheaper) adapter, and I'm 18 years old. I've just recently started shooting music videos and hope to start getting into weddings in the future.

      Let me tell you something. I don't like the idea that in order to succeed and do great work you need great equipment. Unfortunately for me, i've never had a lot of money so I've been stuck using a Canon T2i for pretty much the last decade. I'd like to say i'm a master and wizard with it and have been impressed with what I've been able to do with it. Ultimately I think it comes down to the lens. With great lenses the sky is the limit. No really, you'll need a drone to get the sky.

    So glad I clicked on this video. It's great seeing other Christian film-makers out there with such passion, not just for film but foremost for God, very encouraging. I'll encourage anyone heading down this same path to buy equipment with the intent to make a profit from selling it, or at least to break even, at some point. This is mostly how I've afforded to buy lighting, gimbals, colour cards, audio equipment and how I've upgraded my cameras and lenses over the years. My main (and most important) tip however, as silly as it might seem to some, is to pray that God will guide you through the Holy Spirit in each purchase you make.
    Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
    1 Peter 5:6-7 Be humbled, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you at the right time.
    And cast all your cares on God, for he takes care of you.
    God be with you.

    Had my first paid project this year creating an online ad for NFL and Ticketmaster. I just started creating videos 2 years ago and never in my wildest dreams would I ever have thought I would have an opportunity like that. Just keep creating and people will notice!

      Shit, not people here instead of talking about film, talks about their own religion and spew hate.
      Here we go..
      That's what religions do:
      SEPARATE PEOPLE AND IGNITE HATE

    YO i'm set! one of the lead singers from my church donated me a canon t3i, with a kit lens. My parents then bought me a 50mm, and a 55-250 telephoto lens. I've been making personal videos since.however, i'm more into photography, and this kit is perfect to start. You sir, have inspired me to get work.

    Man I'm kinda on the same journey... I've started shooting on cheap action cameras, upgraded to a Canon 700D, then to the 80D and next week I'm getting the Blackmagic Pocket 4K... I still can't live out of it but I'm getting there. Believe in yourself and things always go right.
