Pro tip: Spend HOURS on your demo reel. One of the reasons I just landed a corporate DP job is because of my reel that I sent in with my resume. I had a decent resume, but it was the 10+ hours I spent making and tweaking my reel that landed me my job. I know that's not specific for music videos. My boss still talks about how much better my reel was than people who've been in the industry longer than me. Make your reel COUNT.

I just upgraded from M50 to Canon EOS R. Its been an investment and I'm loving it so far. Thank you.

I think the addition of the music video pro mini course is an answer to my prayers...I've been googling "music video course " for months now & haven't gotten anything worthwhile, ...can't wait to join the entire FTFM program!! Thanks Parker...

Best Teacher for filmmakers on youtube!! Thanks Parker!! Love your videos!!

[Project-phmp]

@Parker Walbeck knows the way and shows the way!! Can't wait to start the course.

[amorets]

I swear I never seen anyone giving so much information as you guys do. Just loved it and so much information. Thanks a lot.

I know this might seem not important, but I would say being physically fit, helps a lot with the way you shoot, you have more stamina to hold heavy setups.

That shot of the cymbal with the water is one of the best things I've ever seen in my life.

[sj.asappp]

[JosephGarcia]

[SLSMusic]

Finally! Can’t wait to start watching! p.s If there’s any chance you come to visit Taiwan hope we’ll have the chance to work with you! Keep up the good work! Really helpful!

[bradpaulp]

I don’t even make music videos right now but I’ll watch anything from Parker anyway 😂

[Prejippie]

Thanks for these tips! We’ve been shooting our own videos—until we find someone whose work rocks and is in our area—so this helps us take our self-produced videos to the next level. 😎🙌🏾

I can't believe I have done every step mentioned in this video before watching it. I literally learned through experienced and figured out how to do it myself without tips from other people.

[FusionAdam]

Just shot a music vid recently. Glad to see that I covered some of the key points but this reminds me how much further I have to go.
