Episode 18: Luc Forsyth
“Be prepared to max out your credit cards”, my doc filmmaker professor told me. “We need to normalize working in a coffee shop”. Another advice panelist said. Documentary filmmakers get such bad advice. Luc Forsythe, documentary filmmaker, shares some great advice. He has built a YouTube following, tells the secret to his success as not really a big secret — it’s hard work — and will endeavor to not get shot at while filming his next documentary. But no promises.
We talk about gear, the future of documentaries, his exciting career, and much more. If I had to choose one episode that as a documentary filmmaker you have to listen to, it’s this one.
