ake a look around this issue and you’ll notice things have changed. Marking the biggest relaunch in Pro Moviemaker ’s history, we have redesigned the magazine from the ground up to reflect the way filmmakers work today and anticipate
where the industry is heading tomorrow. When Pro Moviemaker launched, the worlds of commercial filmmaking, podcasting, live production and social media were different and more distinct. Today, the boundaries have all but disappeared. A wedding filmmaker will also produce social media content, a documentary shooter could be running a YouTube channel and a content creator may be using the same cameras, lighting and audio gear as a professional production company. The industry has evolved, and so have we. The new Pro Moviemaker remains dedicated to money-making filmmaking, but now embraces the wider creator economy and the growing number of professionals building careers through video. You’ll still find the trusted reviews, in-depth tests and buying advice that have always been at the heart of the magazine. But we’ve reorganised everything to make it easier to find the information that matters most to you. Our Agenda section will still keep you informed with the latest news, launches and developments from across the industry. However, the new Worklife section explores the business side of filmmaking, covering everything from attracting clients and increasing revenue to making smart investments in equipment and services. Academy focuses on practical skills, techniques and workflows for improving your craft, while Toolkit remains the core of the magazine, delivering the independent reviews and expert verdicts that help you make confident purchasing decisions. Finally, we’re excited to introduce Reel Time, a brand-new section dedicated to content creators, streamers, podcasters and video-first entrepreneurs who are moulding the future in their image. What ties all these sections together is a simple philosophy: helping you succeed. Welcome to the new Pro Moviemaker .
