In this episode, I sit down with an incredible content creator and filmmaker, Paddy Cartwright to dive deep into the art and strategy behind his compelling visuals and audio sequences. We explore the often-underestimated power of sound design, discussing how building an extensive sound library over the years can transform the "feel" of a film and why exaggerating real-life sounds can evoke a stronger emotional response from your audience. We also draw fascinating parallels between music composition and video editing, revealing how both leverage repeatable patterns that our brains are naturally wired to enjoy. If you're a filmmaker looking to elevate your craft beyond just the visuals, this conversation is packed with insights you won't want to miss.

We also tackle the evolving landscape of content creation, particularly how traditional filmmaking values intersect with the demands of social media. Paddy shares his unique approach to adapting creative work for different platforms, using short, attention-grabbing content on Instagram as a "playground" for experimentation, ultimately directing a wider audience to his longer, more artistic work on YouTube. We discuss the importance of authenticity in today's digital world, where a creator's personality and genuine connection with their audience can be just as valuable as technical skill. His advice for aspiring creators is simple yet profound: "Just go out and make the f*cking most mental, left-field, crazy idea you possibly can." This episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about filmmaking and building a unique creative path.
