Alesia Films joins the show to talk about her wedding film journey to filming with intention, breaking camera rules to serve the moment better, and how showing up as yourself is far more important than which camera you use.

In today’s conversation, I sit down with filmmaker Stanton Giles to unpack the emotional weight behind the edit. We talk burnout, perfectionism, procrastination, and how the pressure to impress can steal the joy from your work. But more importantly, we share the mindset shifts and systems that helped us fall back in love with editing—and why managing your energy might matter more than managing your time.

Whether you’re a beginner stuck in overwhelm or a seasoned pro looking for peace in the process, this episode will help you reconnect with why you started and how to find your creative flow again.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

• Why you’re really stuck in the edit (hint: it’s not lack of talent)
• The truth about perfectionism and how to break free
• A behind-the-scenes look at Stanton’s full editing workflow
• How done-for-you templates can spark momentum and save time
• The difference between passion and purpose—and how clarity changes everything

Today me and Maclean from Plotline talk about A.I. in wedding filmmaking. Unpacking the skepticism, creative fears around the question of whether or not a.i. will really replace us as filmmakers and how not all a.i. tools are created equally but still get a bad rap.
