Redneck Tech Podcast

Sorry guys it has been over a month since I last got a podcast out. Its been a hectic last few weeks and I swear I have been working on it. This episode I sit down with a friend of mine, Nick Weaver and talk to him about his new business and career in freelance outdoor production. Nick has already gotten to work with some big names like Wildlifers and Backwoods Life on the Sportsman Channel. Listen in to learn what gear Nick runs as well as what he has learned along the way.

On this episode I do a little collaborating with some awesome guys while we talk about our elk hunting trip to Wyoming this last week. On this episode there is Mark Grupe, Ryer Porter, Chris Irwin and myself. We talk about some off the wall stuff as well as some mental prep going into a mountain shoot like this one. This trip ends without a kill but we still had a good time.

Hunting season is finally here!! I am super excited to get to packing and planning for all the trips I have coming up. First one is an Elk hunt in Idaho and I will be flying, after that its an almost 30 day run of truck trips. On this episode I go over my process for packing, planning and logistics. Its going to be a fun fall!

Ryer is back on the podcast with me this week and we talk about some of the Do's and Dont's of filming out west specifically for elk. We are by no means experts or seasoned out west hunting/filming veterans but we have done it enough to know a few things that have worked well for us in the past and as well as looking into our upcoming Wyoming hunt.

This week I have Ryer Porter all the way from Sunny California in the studio to talk about his experience here at the Copeland Creative office. We got out and do some content shooting as well as take a ton of pictures and edit. Ryer talks about what he has taken away from the last few days as well as some of the things he plans to go home and work on in the mean time before our Elk hunt in September. Enjoy.

This week I am on the phone with Lake Pickle of Primos Hunting and we talk about how he got his start in the outdoor industry as well as some of the gear they run and the style in which Primos TV is filmed. Also he tells some hunting stories from past seasons. This is a good one for guys that want to know how much a producer actually is in the field each year as well. Enjoy.

Been getting a ton of questions about this lately so I figured I would replay this one, hope it helps:

Show Notes: The number one question is "hey dude, which camera should I get?" Well that is not an easy answer. It depends on several factors so in this podcast we talk about all the things you should consider before buying a camera.

This was an unanticipated podcast. I have been working on a project for a couple of days now and honestly it should already be done. I have been cutting, watching, then deleting things a lot. I am trying to get through this one before I go out of town again and it just doesn't seem like it is going to happen. So on this episode I sit down and talk through my process of when this happens. I am not sure if this will help anyone but i did it anyway so get over it. Enjoy

Got my buddy Jim from 8th and Tine in the office today going over some editing practices and workflow. Jim is fairly new to the filming/editing game but he is wanting to elevate his knowledge and I am hoping I can help him even if its just a little bit. We talk about 8th and Tine and about his hunting plans for the fall but most importantly we talk about what he learned and how you can apply it to your next edit.

I get asked all the time how I got into this line of work, and I always ask, do you want the long version or the short version? Well since I have a podcast you are going to get the long version.
