Since I ran out of things to talk to you guys about my progress and new things I’ve learned with 3D designing, I might as well talk about something else I’m also interested in which is videography. It all started as a “for fun” project. And because of the lockdown situation we have currently, I’ve been watching a lot of movies and TV series for fun as well as to get some inspirations from the cinematography of the movies. The first time the idea of creating a video first came to me when I was in 10th grade in high school. I think I found a small point and shoot camera at home conveniently before a school trip and I thought to myself “It would be very interesting to make a random video about this trip.” And so I did. The process of it was not that challenging at all because the planning was all over the place, so I just recorded what I thought was interesting at the time and left the rest to worry about in the editing process. The editing process, however, was a little challenging for me because I did not know anything about the editing software and I sort of taught myself along the way (with a lot of help from Youtube tutorials, of course). I owe a lot of my thanks to the Youtube channels that taught me how to use video editing softwares as well as giving out tips and tricks when it comes to video production. After all the video projects that I’ve done so far, I feel like I’ve somewhat improved, especially if compared to when I was creating the first video project. And I feel like that’s the fun part about working on something creative. It feels like you can always learn from every different thing you see. Looking back to that video, I need to gather a lot of determination to watch it fully from start to end because it was super cringey and I feel sort of stupid for doing that. But at the same time, I’m glad that I took the step into videography. As much as I love to create videos, there are times that I don’t want to work on it. I find it a little challenging to get myself in the right headspace to do the editing works. There are times that I sort of forced myself to work on and sometimes, it turned out good and sometimes, it turned out different from what I expected. Nevertheless, I’m very glad that I did all of it because videography / video production has taught me a lot of things. I’ve learned a lot about visual storytelling and documenting different events in the form of a video. Knowing that, it kind of gave me a bit of a motivation to keep creating contents and keep on improving.
