Episode 17: I Failed out of Film School

Episode 17: I Failed out of Film School

Griffin gave a speech at Illinois State University called, I’m naive and lack ambition. How I crafted a career anyway. Nick calls out his BS. Plus, your questions about the ethics of color grading, what bitrate to export video, and slicing part of a lens off.

UPCOMING FILMMAKING WORKSHOP
On Sunday, May 21, Griffin will be in Riverside, CA for a documentary filmmaking workshop at Image One Camera & Video. Get tickets here or view the Facebook event. I got to meet the stylish store owner Shadi Sayes at NAB—check out the cool vehicle wrap he made for the GH5 launch!

To mount a 77mm ND filter on his Panasonic 7–14mm lens, Griffin chopped off the lens hood, and uses a D Focus Systems Filter Thread adapter.
