When I was getting started in this business and I went to start editing something I wanted to get some good music for it. I had no budget, no money, nothing really but some footage I wanted to make sound epic. It took me a long time to figure it out but music is expensive and good music is really expensive. Here are some things you need to know when going to find music for your next production. Don't forget to Rate and Review the podcast!
The fundamental question we all need to ask ourselves when we are in the field creating content, no matter what it is for, is are we a camera man, or are we a producer. There is a huge difference between the two. Trust me, you want to be a producer, not a cameraman. Listen in as I answer a listener question about how to get more out of his team that is out there filming. Long story short, it all starts with a purpose.
I have had several influences in my career but none stand out more as an awesome person and mentor like Chris Irwin. Chris was a staff photographer for Bass Pro Shops for over 26 years. He has been to more places and taken more pictures than most will in 10 lifetimes. He is a true veteran but even more than that, he is just a good dude. We got a little carried away and ended up talking a lot longer than we intended but I think it was worth it. Bare with us on this one because there are a few times Chris cuts out on his end of the call but we press on anyway. Learn from one of the best on this episode for Redneck Tech!
I finally got some time to sit down and call one of my industry buddies, Tim Endsly from Livin' the Brand (@livin_the_brand) We got to talk about self filming, Public lands, Films, and just catch up on what we got going on this year. Tim has been at this outdoor media and content creation thing for a long time and is full of knowledge and insight. Check it out.
I do a lot of traveling for filming trips and I have learned a lot along the way. There are a couple do's and dont's when it comes to getting on a plan or driving across country. In this episode i share some of what I have learned and some ways to save some money and time!
I just got back from ATA Show which is my favorite show of the year, I got to catch with several buddies and fellow producer friends and we talked about where we saw the industry and what was going on in our respective worlds and the same things kept being said and brought up. The TV business is hurting and there are a few reasons why. I also talk about a couple products I am eager to get my hands on as well as make the announcement about an upcoming production class I am working on. Enjoy.
As you know there are a ton of outdoor TV and web shows. All of these shows for the most part are trying to get sponsor dollars from the same handful of companies. These companies only have so much to go around. The hardest part sometimes for a new show is "what questions to ask" or "how do I approach a potential sponsor". For the marketing perspective I sit down with one of my favorite people in this business, Andy Campbell. Andy is the Marketing Director for Diamondback Covers and he is one of the good guys on the marketing side of this crazy industry. Listen to this podcast to get some valuable information straight from the marketing man himself. Do yourself a favor and check out Diamondback Covers, they are an insurance policy for guys that do what we do. www.diamondbackcovers.com
It's show season and I am at the ATA Trade Show in Indianapolis. Its always fun to come to this show for me because these are my people. It is like a family reunion where I get to hang out with all my other industry buddies, meet new ones, get some business, and check out everything that is new in the archery world. While I was there I got with Casey Shoopman, and Tom James from The Management Advantage web show to cover a topic that I am not the best at, Self Filming. These guys have done a ton of it and know how to do it right. Listen along as they give their insight on setup, gear, advice, and some other good stuff.

I love to shoot lapses and see how they turn out. In this podcast I go over my process quickly with a lapse that I have already shot. I have a few more steps that I take before exporting a lapse but I walk you though it in Adobe Lightroom and in Adobe Premiere. There is a video element to this one so be sure to check out the Youtube Channel just search Redneck Tech Podcast on Youtube.
