    This is the 33rd instalment of this feature here on Filmmaking Lifestyle, where we chart the best-of-the-best from around the filmmaking and video production world. This article covers the best posts from June 2018.

    Every month, I post a round-up article featuring the best things I’ve found around the web on filmmaking and video production. If you missed one, we have a complete archive here.

    We’re talking articles, videos, infographics, all sorts. Anything that stands out to me and that I think is worth keeping in an archive, I’m going to include in these reports.

    I post these articles at the end of each month, along with all the regular posts you get on Filmmaking Lifestyle.

    June has passed and summer is in full swing here! It’s been so dry and one of the hottest summers I can remember. It’s made shooting outside a little tricky at time, but all good fun!

    Got a busy rest of the summer coming up, as I’m getting married this summer. After the wedding, we’re going on a couple of cruises! Will be good to take some time off, travel and see some awesome places with my wife (to be)! Can’t wait!
