VIDEOS: Hollywood Actor Success Secrets

This Film Courage video is a culmination of dozens of interviews we have done over the past 5+ years with Hollywood actors. It covers the craft, strategy, mindset, business principles, and the ups and downs that all actors face. It's filled with clues to their success.

This video features Aaron Eckhart, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Katey Sagal, James Franco, Kevin Bacon, Michelle Monaghan, Aaron Paul, Richard Gere, Ethan Hawke, Cynthia Nixon, Miles Teller, Tobey Maguire, Jim Gaffigan, Mandy Moore, LaKeith Stanfield, Clive Owen, Alexander Skarsgård, Omari Hardwick and a whole lot more.

We've made this video for actors but we can see it benefiting all creatives. It was fun for us to put together and we hope you get a lot out of it.

It's broken down into 3 Chapters.

00:05 - Mindset

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 - http://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 - http://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 http://amzn.to/2t1n2hx

Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - http://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 - http://amzn.to/2u5UnHv

COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - http://amzn.to/2t1M67Z

EDITING - We upgraded our editing suite this year and we’re glad we did! This has improved our workflow and the quality of our work. Having new software also helps when we have a problem, it’s easy to search and find a solution - https://goo.gl/56LnpM
