Notes on film and the business of creative work.

Pick yourself.

If you have the option to pick yourself, stop waiting and do it now.
If you're writing a novel, publish it yourself.
If you want to star in a film, make one and cast yourself.
If you are a photographer, create your own gallery show.
If you have a product idea, start a company.

If you want to get things done, look to yourself first. We have more opportunity than ever before to create our own paths in life.

The days of gatekeepers being the only way to get your work into the world are gone. You don't need permission. Start your own projects. Form your own teams. Find your own audiences.

Pick yourself.

Below are three great film links to pick from this week!

Worth watching this week:

+ Flight of the Conchords: A Texan Odyssey — This self-created documentary follows 2004 Bret and Jemaine on a trip to SXSW very early in their careers when they were still only "New Zealand's 4th most popular musical-comedy band."

+ Shoot underwater with $10 DIY Periscope — This amusing video details how to build a DIY periscopic device to capture what's going on underwater with virtually any camera.

+ The Directors Guild Podcast — I've been enjoying this podcast from the DGA where top directors interview other directors about their latest films. They often ask insightful, relevant questions borne of personal experience. A great episode to start with is Scorsese interviewing Spielberg about Bridge of Spies.
