let’s get creative!
What if I told you that most films never make any money, would you still want to make a film? If the answer is yes, then you found a friend on the internet. Bronson Creative is about the art of filmmaking, and along the way we will discuss the reality of being a full time creative.
Over the past 20 years I have directed and produced 3 distributed feature films, and started multiple film and media programs at independent schools in Los Angeles. When I started Bronson, I wanted to try a new way to see what would be possible with less. Over those three features I learned just how difficult it is to do this long term, and the more creative you are the easier the road.
I am a filmmaker and Educator whose always learning, so lets see
what we can create together!
lets get TO WORK!

What Filmmakers are Saying
It would be an understatement to say I wouldn’t be doing film without Mr. White's class. I am very fortunate to attend the fourth-ranked film school in the country, but there has yet to be a class where I’ve learned as much as I did in Mr. White's. The best piece of filmmaking advice I’ve ever gotten was when I was doubting my ability to pull off an ambitious ghost film. Mr. White told me, “It’s a movie, it’s all fake. You can do whatever you want,” and that's something I carry with me into every new project. Mr. White's class was truly eye-opening, not just as a creative but as a person.

Thank you so much for making these videos. As a student of yours, you have inspired me in many ways. You have changed the way I look at art. Something I will never forget is our conversations about AI and the role it's going to play in our future. You have taught me to think more critically. From being AI's #1 hater, I have come to except that AI isn't as scary as we think, which is due to you. This video helped remind me why we create even when it's just for ourselves. When the world around us is moving so quickly, it's sometimes hard to find my place in it, but your channel keeps me motivated.

Mr. White not only changed the way I see film, he completely transformed the way I see being an artist. His attitude and dedication toward creating—no matter the consequence and no matter the payout—is beyond inspiring, especially because it’s something you see so little of. I’ve had many teachers, but Mr. White was the only one who taught me about film by teaching me about life. When you’re around him, you can feel the passion he has for creating, and his commitment to his craft is completely contagious. Learning from someone that cares as much as he does was life-changing. I have Mr. White to thank for helping me nurture my love for watching into a love for creating.

You Can Edit!
Making a film is hard, but it doesn’t have to be. Enjoy the ride and just get started! Check out the free program tutorials including Davinci Resolve, Premiere Pro and More. Have a program you’d like to learn, reach out and I’ll put together a tutorial!
You Can Write!
Writing your film can seem like a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be. Check out my screenwriting tutorial where I write a short film in real time and show you the final film. It doesn’t have to be perfect to start, it just has to be started. Let’s get writing!
you have enough
Filming can sound tough at first, but with the right resources you can make it happen with less than you might have originally imagined. Filmmaking is inherently collaborative and your resourcefulness will make or break the film.
Just Start
The hardest step in any stage of filmmaking is to just get started. It doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to begin. Check out my weekly Vlog series where I take you behind the scenes of self-distribution, and more!
Let’s Talk!
I talk to filmmakers at all stages of the process, so those on the road behind you can see what it takes. So if you are looking to be interviewed on the show, or talk about something in development I’m here to chat. This is completely FREE, so pitch your project in detail and let me know what you are working on. Maybe we can spread the word together.
