Ever wonder about the magic behind GoPro videos and millions of views? As a video editor for them, here is a peek into my craft:

@jackbutcher Interesting to apply this to video and commercial for brands. The "it's easy to make, now make people care" is exactly the challenge. Made me think.

New tool for VV subscribers: Package Paste a github repo, get a marketing department.

@danieldalen As a fellow filmmaker and editor, I usually I'm even more excited than people making the video. I play the guess game of how they shot and lit everything.

I sometimes wonder if anyone who watches my stuff is equally as excited about a video as I am. Truly love making them

@bymaximise @harteliuslopezz Something we could do together, could be fun

@bymaximise @harteliuslopezz Well deserved bro. Made me want to share an idea on a running short like this.

The response to this first short film for Maximise has been incredible. I've never seen so much engagement on a video on X. This is just the start of a new shift in how I make videos, and I learnt an insane amount from the talented @harteliuslopezz who wrote & directed this piece.

You arbitrarily pick the thing and ignore everything else in order to make the thing you've picked important You can't identify the most important thing if you haven't done anything, which is why everyone who's found their thing gives this advice on repeat (myself included)

Idea for you @zachpogrob for Aura. Implement a yearly calendar, and when I hover I get to see the training session (miles or workout) + a photo. On the calendar, like nolio, a small recap. Per month, a total, like nolio.

@jasonfried Is there a calendar only option?

Loved this idea so much we brought it to the HEY Calendar overnight. Live now in the new Year view (top left toggle in your HEY Calendar account).

@MarcusMilione Can't wai to see the final edits, if you ever need help on editing/sound design, hit me up :)

At work working

@bymaximise Love when it's about filmmaking

This conversation is insanely good.

@MarcusMilione in surfing we say: the best surfer is the one having the most fun. Every time I focused on having fun, I have my best perf, in sports or in business. Maybe the real power move is enjoying the swing ?

a thought I am constantly fighting in my head... am I swinging big enough? would love to hear if others have dealt with the same

@thesamocean At one point I'll start my own youtube to learn how to grow. Then add this to my skillset.

A message I just sent my 20-person team: Leila Hormozi is hiring a Chief Media Officer for $30,000 USD per month. They're going to be responsible for overlooking the growth for Leila, Alex, Sharran (President of Acquisition), and Acquisition(.)com as a brand. I'm telling you, this is truly the future of business. We are not just some "YouTube agency" who edits videos. We are building YouTube-first media machines that can help brands dominate over the next 10 years. As Gary Vaynerchuk says: If you're not a media company then you don't exist. We're already at 30.1 million views and about 2.5 million watch time hours. We know more about media than than 99% of other people and I can guarantee that. So if you're working here with Tim and I at One Billion Media, these are exactly the skills you're going to learn. Whether you're a strategist, scriptwriter, thumbnail designer, video editor, or even operator. For however long we work together, I urge you to absorb as much as you can while you're here. Put CONSCIOUS effort into learning the strategy side of what we do. The skills you learn with us are the same skills the biggest entrepreneurs in the world are starting to pay for. Let's rock this next week 💪

@bymaximise and I also have some unkown INCREDIBLE directors in minds for days you run out of ideas

@bymaximise I'll be here, reading and watching

In my spare time I’m going to be writing pieces on directors who are making what I consider some of the best work in the world. I’ve found myself digging deep into the history of how someone who is making some of the best videos on the internet started and where they are now. First piece drops tomorrow. I hope to bring to light some creative geniuses and share my passion for the craft with you throughout the way.

Is there a correlation between successful people and the number of business books read/podcasts listened to ... or is it just a distraction? Genuinely curious.

@bymaximise What's your top 3 founder podcast episode Max?

After listening to his podcast for years and sending it to every single friend who cared about business… I’d never heard so many people share how much they benefited from listening. Then when I met & shared a conversation with David, it became clear, this was inevitable… and now it’s here. Being on David’s team… I was lucky enough to have an exclusive watch of the first episode and… yet again I am recommending this to every single friend I know. Whether you care about business or not. This was most definitely the highest ‘value per minute’ entrepreneurial conversation I’ve ever witnessed. Don’t wait for this to find you, because it will… go check it out.

@bymaximise read the entire post, my bad.

@bymaximise Will he continue to do also founder? As I feel like founder is what will fuel interesting conversation.

Hopefully. There are days I'm like "wtf I am even spending time working my ass off while my friends are making 3x more money than me for 3x less time"

An idea for you @jackbutcher I made this chrome new tab page, but it would fit very well the Manifest. So you know where you are in the year. Sense or urgency imo. You could also add an option to see quarterly goals + switch between light & dark. Got all the code iyw

@MarcusMilione This is what makes you great CEAO and a great brand. Made BY runners, FOR runners.

I have an immense respect for the sport of running If we are going to be producing running apparel I feel obligated to train and explore my genetic potential as a runner All out of respect to the sport
