Here is the email by Joel that inspired the topic:
"Hey, I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am for giving out the information that you do during your videos. It is so hard to find someone who talks about how films make you feel emotion vs technical advice. I am a Las Vegas Based Cinematographer... The reason I bring this up is because i've been watching your channel for the last year and one of your videos "How To Edit A Documentary Film" Caught my attention specifically. You mentioned you only put what catches your emotion and any other shots didn't matter. I guess what I'm asking is to understand that a little more. I as a cinematographer only give you what I think catches emotion for the story and I want to make sure anything I give the editor does that. I also don't want to wasted time and money for shots the story doesn't need. In your experience with cinematographers, is there anything I can do that can help that? Maybe some do's and don'ts? I'd really appreciate any advice. Thank you for continuing your channel. It's refreshing seeing someone so interested in emotion and as determined as you. Thank you, Joel"
I'm excited to meet you all.
