In case if you're wondering if this blog is just another promotional tool for Filmtools - well it is. But before you say anything or leave my blog, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Gary, and I work with Filmtools everyday. I don't just help sell equipment for them, I use almost use ALL of the products that they sell.
Believe me, everything I do or say about Filmtools is the honest truth, and you won't get a review of a product, or tip, or trick, that isn't part of industry wisdom. I'm aiming to provide consistent product reviews, as well as share some industry wisdom with the rest of ya'll!
Who the heck is Stan McClain, and why do I care?
Let me tell you, I've known Stan McClain, the owner of Filmtools for only a few months, but the amount of knowledge, wisdom, and experience he has would take me a lifetime to acquire. All you have to do is go on Google, and type in his name. You'll see what I'm talking about. He is an aerial cinematographer, turned businessman. You can pretty much read his biography and get the full story.
What is Filmtools?
Filmtools is a retail and e-commerce store dedicated to the selling of film industry equipment and supplies at great prices. Located in Burbank, California, we carry camera department equipment (Filters, tripods, calibration charts, etc), grip supplies (bags, tape, lighting, stands), and other general production needs.
What is this blog for?
There's plenty companies and products out there trying to win your greenbacks, but there's really no guidance to what is a great product and what is not. We're hoping to change that. We want to create a resource out there for people - we want people to make a educated and informed decision when it comes to purchasing equipment for their filming needs.
So now what?
We'll have regular postings about products as they are being used and even discussions about various film topics. Stay tuned!
