      Yes, that is an old step ladder… It’s not a proper production unless you’re using an old step ladder for a mic stand… I hear Scorsese swears by his trusty steps and Speilberg won’t consider turning over unless he can see a step ladder in the shot.

      • There’s so much advice out there about starting and growing a business, but far less about the realities of partnerships, expectations, and the human side of building something with other people.

        Sometimes the most useful lessons are the unfiltered ones people only learn through experience!
