  • Great listen for budget filmmakers!

    Nigel is amazing! Besides bringing knowledge, experience and great guests to the podcast, he also shows patience and understanding in helping budget filmmakers. Super smart and yet really humble. Did I mention that he’s accessible? Somewhat rare with experienced YouTuber’s these days. He always answers Patreon questions each month and his Patreon membership is budget friendly. He answers YouTube community questions and polls on IG. Needless to say…highly recommended!
