Many filmmakers were told early on in their careers to specialize in only one field and to master a single skill. But as the landscape of content creation continues to evolve, creative generalists – especially those who emphasize post production – are proving that this theory may no longer hold the same weight.
In this episode, I make a case for embracing a generalist approach to filmmaking, outlining how it allows DIY filmmakers to make better movies for less money, and in less time than ever before. Topics covered include: Breaking the “jack of all trades” stigma, the financial benefits of mastering post production, educating yourself on fundamental editorial/finishing skills, when you should (or shouldn’t) hire outside help, and loads more.
Check out Episode 66: Why Post-Production “Generalists” Are Thriving as Independent Content Creators in 2019

atKnowing post production is such as asset. I have been learning filming over the past 2 years. It has been a reasonably easy process due to my knowledge of print and digital processes (half the job was done before I even began). When learning new software or skills, having the background knowledge to understand the tutors reference to colour management or bit depth etc allows the new knowledge to flow. It connects the dots… Time is a precious resource, you can’t learn everything in a day, take your time and it will all come together, there is no end but it does get easier. Chris
