A Challenge to Filmmakers

[Steve Sherrick]

you should def know how to use the tools..but shouldnt focus on buying them and keeping up with the jones.
rather use what u can and get creative...

I find lacking certain things actually strengthens your skill set

Agreed Zakaree and glad to see you out there shooting a lot. I do like the Shane Carruth style of not wanting to make the camera a big part of the discussion about the movie. Of course, behind the scenes it's totally cool for us to geek out sometimes and certainly knowing the tools is important. But it's very easy to feel a camera is no longer worthy because people are telling you so. In watching your recent short, I didn't care too much what it was shot on. It held my attention to the end because of how it was working as a whole.
