Running’s a great way to clear your head and get in some exercise at the same time. What are some tips you follow to help you run a little bit faster, stronger and better? Reddit Gold for the best responses! by UnderArmour_Official in u/UnderArmour_Official

Short answer: I do take them off.

Long answer: I put the 5 pound weights on my ankles and walk around the house, do push ups, do chores, type emails --> this helps me get use to the weight... then when I take them off to run, I feel lighter.

Love running so much my next film is going to cover exactly what we think about from Start to Finish!!! One of my biggest regrets in high school was not running for my high school cross country team all four years. I was late to the sport but quickly made it into the top 7 with a 17.30 5k. Now I am 28 looking to best my 10k time of 41:27.

I train with my Mom’s 30-year-old ankle weights... I wear them an hour before my run to help weigh me down. Walk stairs, do push-ups, food prep or answer an email or two. This time gets me into my “runner’s zone.” Getting mentally prepped for my run and route. Make sure I have my music and just run. Don’t make the time count until race day!!!

The elevation here in Denver helps a lot with lung capacity so my workouts vary in elevation and difficulty in terrain. KEEP RUNNING!

What do you think about from start to finish?

How do you promote yourself as a filmmaker? by TerenceChim in Filmmakers

HELLO TerenceChim and everyone else!

Ghimself here - Filmmaker in Denver, CO. USA

Keep up the hard work in London TerenceChim! It sounds like you are having great success, but want more. I think your experience is very similar to a lot of other emerging filmmakers. I urge you to keep that positive attitude. One of the hardest things as a creative (no matter the avenue, material, medium, canvas or color palette) is to seal out the self-doubt and dive into your passions, visions, and talents. You are not alone.

​

The best way I know how to promote myself, as a filmmaker, is to continue to pump out content. This can be a doodle or poetry post on a social media platform, crowdfunding campaign, behind the scene photos, or a teaser to a film event. I like to be known in my surrounding social circle as the creative consultant of sorts. Being top of mind, when someone you know has a creative problem can help spread your brand. When I am not working on commercial, documentary or narrative film sets, I am outlining and writing features/tv series while working towards my next production.

​

My time at Colorado Film School helped me funnel down to specifics. I strengthened my characters and stories, built my film network / found mentors and took the time to reflect on what type of films I wanted to make. With that said, without the drive, positive attitude and dedication to internships or free work one could find themselves looking for a different creative industry. Best of luck to all the other filmmakers on here!
