Stuff we use:
LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - amzn.to/2tbtmOq

AUDIO

Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post amzn.to/2t1n2hx

LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - amzn.to/2u5UnHv

COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - amzn.to/2t1M67Z

    1) Straight Talk: Chit-chat. 2) Poetic style: Metaphors/ similes 3) Repetition: Biblical repetition (3xs), rhythmic beat of the story 4) Non-communicative language: stream of conscious, non-linear way of speaking (akin to modern art) 5) Your own voice.
  • @_abracadabra
    1. The author's voice 2. Casual, conversational, mundane, chit-chatty 3. Flowery, ornate, poetic 4. Incantatory, rhetorical, spellbinding via repetition 5. Stream of consciousness What a cool framework. I'm going to play with the dice exercise. Thanks for posting this interview.
  • @anavonrebeur6121
    The 5 voices : Chitchat ,coloquial , casual Poétic, ornate and metaphoric Repest things three times like preachers Non communicative writing , non linear, Inside abstract thinking..(drunk, mád, senile) Your own voice .
  • @Omnipusia
    I love the exitment on his face when he pulled out the cards, it touched me deeply - the way he is passionate about teaching, making his students "love it" as he said
  • @grammarsongs
    "The drama is in the tonalities you switch." Which he teaches in such a easy to understand manner. Wow. Thanks FILM COURAGE.
  • @meowpacino21692
    One of the reasons why I had quit film school was that the professors, specifically the ones that “taught” writing were just bitter old men who failed making it in the film industry. This dude however is very intelligent, humorous and well read and it must be incredible to attend one of his lectures.
  • @jonc12
    Such a genuine artist. You could tell by how he was showing off his cards how much pleasure he gets out of being a writer.
  • @maxjones503
    Glad to hear Ludwig is doing well with his music.
  • This is brilliant. I'm tired of hearing the same old writing advice. Love to hear ideas like this that I've never heard before.
  • @criticalbil1
    I was fascinated by how he spent several minutes describing rhetoric without using the word 'rhetoric.' 😂 The repetition he referred to is a rhetorical device.
  • Holy sh... This was one of those Film Courage videos that hit so hard they become responsible for completely changing how I write (there’s quite a few of those racking up 😅). Thank you for sharing this.
  • @chumbageni1537
    I wasn't sure I heard him right when he casually just said "when Beethoven took my class"😁 Great way to crystallize the lesson!
  • @lousy4892
    "The drama is in the tonalities." Mind blown.
  • @UteChewb
    Loved the Beethoven bit. I like this guy. Great insights. Thank you, Film Courage.
  • @whitebear224
    I just love this channel. It's so underrated. These are great stuff.
  • @afrosymphony8207
    oh this is one of THE ones...straight gem, omg!! i cant believe writing and music crossed paths this way, i will try this as well in my music, if its good enough for his young student ludwig its good enough for me
  • @moralester
    I just love listening to masters talk about their craft with passion
  • I'm going to have so much fun playing with these voices, not only in writing, but in my new video series. I can't thank you enough for these videos. You help keep me "pen to paper" 📖✍️
  • @kokoleka808
    We've all been taught and remember that conflict drives a storyline forward--but I must admit, I forgot that tonal dynamics is equally important in keeping the story compelling--music to one's ears as Jack vividly displayed in his analogy of teaching Beethoven how to compose.
  • @Sergiopoo
    Wow this was so good! I love Jack's energy and the way he explains things
