This topic is back by popular demand.  And it makes sense because when you create a film and post it to Youtube, you want people to watch it!  But Independent filmmakers didn't get into filmmaking to write copy so it's not second nature.This Episode 88 is Part 1 on how to write an effective YouTube description to maximise its potential to be discovered and watched.  Part 2 next week will discuss how you can market, network and promote your Youtube video to make sure it gets shared, liked and drives engagement.  These two parts together, the description along with the marketing and networking, are how you're going to get your video out into the world and help you succeed in getting lots of happy eyeballs watching your content.I try to always talk about things that I have done myself or that my team have done so that I can speak with genuine experience on the topics.  I worry that there are a lot of folks out there telling filmmakers how to do things but they haven’t done the hard yards or tried out the systems they’re promoting themselves.  They’re just regurgitating what others have said works for them.So what I talk about in this episode is all based on the experience I've had posting content to YouTube since 2010.  Please send me your questions, DM @MoonshineCommunicationsAcademy on Insta or send me an email to support@moonshinecommunicationsacademy.com How to write an effective YouTube video description https://www.buzzsprout.com/846682/4857530📩 Want to stay up to date with the latest?

This week I'm talking all about consistency and debating if it's really that important to being a successful filmmaker?   If you're like me then consistency isn't your strength, which feels problematic considering so many thought leaders tout that consistency is the key to success.  So what are the benefits of embracing consistency, creativity, innovation, and the power of diverse perspectives? If you're interested in making movies that matter, building a sustainable career, and positively impacting your audiences, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Sue dives deep into a topic that not typically covered in film school - the business of filmmaking. 🎥💼Here are three key takeaways from this episode:1️⃣ The Craft vs. The Business: While film school teaches us a lot about the art and technique of filmmaking, it often doesn't teach us about the essential business aspects. Producing work in the film industry involves much more than just the craft of making the film. But don't be discouraged! If you aspire to be your own boss and create your own work, you're in the right place to learn the business side of the industry.2️⃣ Building a Sustainable Career: If you want to earn a living and have a long-lasting career in filmmaking, it's important to create and initiate your own projects. While specializing in a specific area and working solely on other people's productions might be an option, it may not provide the financial stability and creative fulfillment you desire. This episode explores how to make filmmaking a sustainable career by creating meaningful work that resonates with audiences.3️⃣ The Power of Consistency: Consistency is key in many pursuits, including filmmaking. However, it can be a challenge to maintain consistency while nurturing your creative abilities. Sue's sharing some thoughts on this and more.  If you want to dive deeper into the topics discussed on the show, make sure to sign up for our weekly drop of Moonshine via email at moonshinecommunicationsacademy.com. 💌Happy filmmaking, and stay tuned for next week's episode! 🎬✨📩 Want to stay up to date with the latest?
