Thank you so much my brother. I am new in your channel.

I love your video production and advice. It helped me to better understand the importance of hooking your audience into your Documentary in the first 30:sec. Secondly, when you talk about B-roll for your Documentary and shot Diversity (On the beach, in the car, outdoors, and to ensure they are captured in wide, medium and closeup). Thirdly, when you mentioned pacing the subject for a more natural feel, that was an eye-opener. Fourthly, is the need for Character Development very profound, and Last but not least is the importance you must place on Closing your Documentary. All-in-all, this video was very informative and motivating. Keep it up.

I hear a lot of producers throw that term around now "Netflix style". It's funny Netflix didn't coin the style. Docuh follows just evolve overtime due to film makers innovation. But if I had to pick one particular film that was a turning point. I would put my money on the original "Planet Earth" series. They really changed the game!

It depends on your budget, the FX3 is great, but you have to make sure that you have enough money to buy a lense and some other accessories to make it ready to shoot. I also recommend the blackmagic 6K pro. That’s an absolutely amazing camera for for the price you can get that and a lens for about $3K

What people don’t realize is that Netflix uses a lot of scripting for their documentary interviews to help build the story. It’s based on facts (most of the time) and the producers are really good at coaching the subjects to deliver specific soundbites for that dramatic effect.
