Ep 28 - Murphy Isn't Always Right

What do you do when things go wrong on set, in the edit bay, or in life? Murphy’s Law says, “Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.” But here’s the truth: Murphy isn’t always right.

In this episode, Paul Steven Forrest share a personal reflection on those moments when projects hit a snag—and how to turn them into opportunities instead of setbacks.

You’ll learn five tools that every video creator can use when the unexpected happens: Stay calm under fire – your best decisions come when your head is clear. Think like a problem-solver – shift from panic to solutions. Lean on your team – creativity thrives in collaboration. Adapt, don’t quit – detours often lead to stronger stories. Keep perspective – one setback doesn’t define your whole project.

Whether you’re behind the camera, in front of a client, or deep in the edit, these tools will help you push through when things don’t go as planned. The best creatives aren’t those who avoid problems—they’re the ones who know how to respond when they show up.
