Stuff we use:
CAMERA - This is the camera we have used to film 90+% of our interviews (over 200 interviews and counting) It continues to be our workhorse - amzn.to/2u66V1J
LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - amzn.to/2tbtmOq
AUDIO
Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post amzn.to/2t1n2hx
Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - amzn.to/2u5UnHv
COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - amzn.to/2t1M67Z

  • This is very invaluable, not only in movie industry, but also for anyone pitching to distributors/streamers/labels and so on. Many people concentrate on the quantity of followers they have and, while this can be an important factor in success during this digital age, never forget that all you need is one person in an office somewhere to say "yes" in order to get a breakthrough!

Most videos that purport to discuss Netflix deals are filled with vague generalities and no specifics. I'm glad the interviewer asked him a second time "So what materials do you bring into the meeting?" since his first response didnt give the info requested. FINALLY we have some information that's useful!!
