My must-have filmmaking gear—tested, loved, and used to build my own web series. Make your project look legit without blowing your budget. Curated camera gear for creators and actors who want cinematic visuals without a massive budget. This list includes cameras, lenses, lighting, and audio tools I actually use for short-form content, self-tapes, and indie filmmaking. Everything here is creator-tested and practical for real-world shooting. I update this list as I upgrade or discover better gear—save it if you’re building your setup 🎬
