Not to say you need an agent as a filmmaker, it all depends on your goals. But if that is the goal, the best way to get there is to create great work. Even then, it is no guarantee but you’ll always be further ahead by creating than not.

We only have so many hours to dedicate to our creative endeavors. Every second we spend discrediting the work of others is one less second spent creating something of our own. Too many creatives fall into this trap, not recognizing that it is the ultimate form of self-sabotage and avoidance. You have to use your limited resources strategically. Would you agree?

I just published an article all about emulating the film look when shooting digitally. It covers camera choice, lens pairings, lighting considerations, post processing and more. Basically everything I’ve learned on the topic over the past 10 years. You can read it now at noamkroll.com

Why do you think this is? Many say they don’t believe you can make a great film with limited budget/resources, but that’s been proven false thousands of times over. There is no use waiting for the perfect time, when the perfect time is now.

There’s always a ton of great education and networking to be had at NAB Show, but it’s the new camera announcements that get me the most excited. We won’t know for sure until later this month, but I’m hoping we see these 3 rumored cameras at the show:

1. Canon C50
The C50 is apparently going to be the new entry-level cinema camera in Canon’s C-series line, and it’s rumored to be released this year. As a big fan of the C100/C200/C300, I’m excited to see what’s in store for the C50, and how it stacks up to the rest of the lineup.

2. Fuji X-H2
I’ve been a long-time Fuji fan, ever since I first picked up the X-T2 years ago. The long-awaited X-H2 seems to be just around the corner, and I’m excited to potentially get a sneak peek at the show this year.  
3. Blackmagic
Since the original BMCC was released, Blackmagic has stolen the show at NAB Show almost every year with their groundbreaking product announcements. What will it be this year? A new micro-cinema camera? An 8K pocket cam? I’m betting Blackmagic won’t disappoint.

Which cameras are you most excited for at the 2022 NAB Show?

Sneak peek: Some screenshots from our feature shoot this weekend. No crew, no lights, no budget. Just a couple great actors at the other end of a Fuji X-T4. Excited to cut this together :) #filmmaking #indiefilm @joshpafchek @imaynor
