Anything you all have learned in your time freelancing or running a video production company? 👀

[Magmafire]

Your second point about advice is accurate. I failed on that point early on and I wish I was smart enough to tune out the noise sooner. Your third and fourth points naturally ties into the second point. Good advice all around. Thanks for sharing.

[Aaron_Smith_OM]

Appreciate you. I subbed to this channel because of the different approach to gear talks, ethics, and business. I hope this channel and your production company continues to grow! Much success to you.

I just launched my own production company, Clear Creek Films LLC, and this channel has helped me tremendously. I've read and watched a lot of content so I can learn as much as possible but this channel has helped me the most. 🙏

Peter mckinnon is one of the few YouTubers who, as far as I can tell, went into YouTube with the intent of pursuing virality and making this his full time job. Most other big creators did this as a hobby, fell into success and realised doing YT full time was a better choice than their actual job.
He worked this platform immaculately, like a science and you have to respect that

I'm gonna need that business card (2:34) on a t-shirt. ASAP.

*Global Archetype Paradigm, LLC* One technique for naming your business is something like Reverend Al & Associates. I was in graphic design and people in advertising, design, publicity often did this. No need to do a fictitious business name filing in that circumstance. Can use your personal checking account and credit rating for business. Learning accounting was a definite positive for me.

Great advice! All lessons I have learnt.

Also I have just changed my company name today because people kept spelling it wrong.

Kelly Clarkson tip was very good! Particularly for Television lots of people have advice for you - after all they watch TV

[tripppykun]

The only non-clickbait YouTube video with this title 🦝

[apstudios]

Great advice. I’m battling the name change issue right now. Thanks

As much as I hate it when people shoot on film (expensive, wasteful and environmentally irresponsible)...
I love film grain, I really liked how you used it in the video

[genxtechguy]

I think the key takeaway from this video is .. in order to be successful, you absolutely need matching polos for your crew. 😂

[JaspreetSinghArtist]

You should set countdown for Arri Alexa 35. some images and details are already leaked.

[aahritya_tv]

I like when real industry people come and teach on youtube. simply mimics the Film School:)

“I find a lot of people don’t understand the corporate environment”

**insert shots of Tim for the entire point**

- Guess he’s talking about Tim not understanding the corporate environment 😂

Tip #2 is wrong. Often the people who win at life know the least about how much luck and circumstance played into their successes and therefore have the least awareness of how many ways it can go wrong. That said, there is significant merit in seeking out advice from people who've made it to where you want to go.
