"If you're not trying, you'll never fail" and "If you're not failing, you're doing something wrong" are definitely messages I can take to heart and learn from.

Going on 10 years watching videos here on YouTube, and I have yet to find someone who makes me feel the calm and peace that your videos bring me.

[khai.attack]

Wow, I've never been more excited about a YouTube notification. Good to see you!

[arthoundfilms]

This definitely resonated with me, especially after a chain of festival rejections. I really appreciate the refreshing honesty compared to a lot of the stuff out there. Good to have another video from you Simon!

It's cool to see you being so open, I hope your not feeling too down about past failures, you've gotten further than most have in filmmaking!

I loved this, Seb's story at 7:45 hit close to home, I ran away from home at the age of 16 and had my first "this is getting real" moment while living in a tent, mind you not much film making involved 😂but I know that feeling of being in the deep end while finding ways to make ends meet. I found this video very inspirational so thank you for sharing :D

Aye, nice to see a new post from you again man. Hopefully you’ve been having a good month so far, and no worries about not posting much. I respect that you take the time to put out new videos

Forgot about this channel









I saw the face in the thumbnail and nostalgia hit

I’ve been here since you were a kid, time flies, glad you still upload

[funkymunky]

This is therapeutic. It resonates. It helps me reframe my own failures and rejections in life. Thanks, boys.

[JustLukeMorgan]

The failures aren’t something worth hiding, they’re all a part of your journey. Thank you for sharing!

[kathmmedia]

I really relate with alot of what you both have experienced. However I see my failures & set backs as learning experiences along with my educational knowledge.

[mooksmootseng]

can I just point out the way these guys speak so soft calm and clear man it's really cool

[Akram_Ibrahim]

I was thrilled to get a notification about a new video from you! That was enlightening, thank you both for sharing!

[ConvergenceMedia]

Believe me, I hear ya', brother. That being said, one of your 'What's in front of the camera' posters hangs proudly on my wall. Never give up!

[GarakTheTailor]

I’m still waiting on that trailer Simon… at least the behind the scenes video was top class.

[TheGirlSkateBoardCo]

Miss when your videos would get million of views. Remember when I subscribed to you like 5 to 7 years ago during the DSLR craze days. Wish you the best and hopefully you get you back to those days soon.

Great video, simple pleasant stories about the difficulties faced by almost every beginner in their field. I am going through similar situations at the moment and it was interesting for me to watch this video.
Greetings and respect from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿

So much relatable stuff in here for me. Especially how to handle doing a ton of takes and film festivals. Excellent perspective on not trying to be the biggest failure of all.

I love your channel. I love the chill pace. Was excited when I saw a new video. Thanks.
