Short monologue (YouTube) by Eric Deeran about creating time and financial ‘margin’ through higher-paying client work and retainers so he can pursue passion/creative video projects, hire collaborators, and avoid being consumed by corporate jobs. Emphasizes the motive that many filmmakers start to make creative work rather than only corporate videos.
And also what I, what my goal is and what other filmmakers might get from this is that, you know, my goal is to create margin in my schedule so I can do creative work because I love making videos. Most of us grabbed a camera, not so we could just do corporate videos and pay our bills, right? But I never had time to create because I was working so many hours with all these jobs for other people. So the point of, of creating these higher paying situations with retainers is that you can literally, you have margin to now create your fun project and you have finances to hire people and.
