Chris Rogers is a self-taught videographer and filmmaker who gets paid to travel the world to make videos for brands and for himself. Chris honed his skills by getting involved in side-projects and making videos out of passion and interest, rather than for money. As a result, he has experienced organic exponential growth in his ability, his following, and his views on his content, and doesn't look like he's slowing down anytime soon.

A peek into our conversation:

1. Sometimes you get lucky and you make great content that people love, but sometimes you need to reverse engineer what works and create something that you know people will love.
2. Invest in yourself and your portfolio, even if that means spending your own money to make content. The more you make and put out there, the more chances there are that someone will notice you. They could then reach out to you and get you to make something that gives you even more experience and even more exposure.
3. If you're wanting big exposure, you could play into the fact that people will be searching for certain topics and events. You could make content that people find through searching for that content and not necessarily looking for you.
