Found this late but it hits. I’m so opinionated and you’ve made me more conscious of that than I usually am so thank you. And I’m looking forward to broadening my capacity to like things, and see beauty where I may have nitpicked before.
So true and so well conveyed, I've only this day found your channel. Really enjoyed the three or four I have watched. The eight or nine things that are not that important... your film (spores), the viral one, cinematic, and this one. I feel nourished. I have spent a few weeks intensively studying the art and techniques of video having rashly offered to make a series of promotional videos for a friend's bar and restaurant. I intend to do it properly... and tomorrow it starts in earnest. It will take a few days to shoot. So after all the hard core technical deep dive into doing that for weeks... nice to find a bit of zen going down. Thank you ps. I do have experience over thirty years using cameras for business and pleasure. But it's been a while since I had to take filming seriously in a business setting and above all now I am the crew and the post production there is no assistant or editor (I am very well practised in editing so the story telling part will hopefully go smoothly), stills in my usual medium. I would not like you to think that I imagine I can learn photography and filmmaking from scratch in a few week!!
All good! The hard balance is challenging yourself to do something different, while still delivering a piece the client will be happy with. It’s a tightrope! Most of my commercial work is not “art” but it’s a great way to try out a technique or lighting style or get some other “win” out of it.
"But, I also don't feel compelled to broadcast my dislike." - Jesse Senko. This is what I dislike about the world right now. So many people feel the need to broadcast their dislike. It's annoying. So I'm doing it. Right now. I'm broadcasting my dislike. Oops! What have I just done!
Welcome back. Love the analog vibes, and thank you for rewinding. I knew someone who would say that "Opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one and it serves no purpose."
How did I not discover your channel until just now. You offer something that all other photography channels don’t. I don’t know what that is yet but I like it. I too have a passion for many things most don’t. I Cary small notebooks to document my day. I carry bits of charcoal in my pockets in case I feel the need to create some artwork on the fly. And most importantly, my k1000 lives in my truck and goes everywhere with me. Keep up the good work! Thing I’ll start developing my own film instead of emptying my wallet at the photolab.
Watching the VHS tape… man, there was beauty in not having much optionally. You were forced to watch your mom’s romance movies and actually appreciate the filmmaking and the morals in the story. For whatever reason, I always watched them from the middle of the movie, then if it was good, I rewinded the tape and watched from the beginning. Hating something doesn’t make you unique. Being excited about something makes you the most interesting person in the world.
We rented a cottage when I was a kid and they had the biggest VHS collection. It was always so overwhelming to choose, but I didn’t know what was ahead with streaming.
Loading the VCR... so satisfying. Watching this video was like a rollercoaster of emotions, and I'm not just saying that because I once rode a rollercoaster while watching a slow French film.
Some people need a way to make boring films more exciting. Glad you found yours… although I’d be worried about motion sickness :) thanks for watching, Graham!
It was cool to hear you talk about being homeschooled. I am 15 and homeschooled and just getting into ''film making'' me and my brother made two videos on Instagram that I cringe to watch now but I got a better camera and I can edit on a MacBook so the videos will be a little better now.
That’s great, Nathan! There are so many cringey videos I’ve made, but just keep making them. You’ve gotta make a lot of bad ones before you start getting good so just keep making!
Amazingly well made video! I hope you don't care but videos like this don't 'hit the YT algorithm' because they're not searchable and that is in no way a negative. I hope you are never discouraged. This is a video to be extremely proud of and you absolutely made something wonderful here. Thanks for putting this out.
Yeah. Isn’t that the way things go? Maybe should retitle “how to fix Maytag dishwasher error code” doesn’t bother me. The exercise and a few meaningful comments are fine for now :)
@@jessesenko - Ah Maytag in the title is what's been missing from my videos. 😲 That's the secret. Jokes aside, your work speaks for it's self. Keep making great stuff! Quality > YT clickbait crap.
So good. It's important to remember that art is subjective. Meaning you and only you get to decide what you like. Only you get to grow through your likes and get revisit even prior dislikes or prior likes. Art is only a pure reflection of our own journey. A reflection of all of it, the good the bad, the happy, the sad and the whole dynamic range in between. Thank you for this video! @jessesenko
A movie I find very entertaining that is utterly ridiculous Wolf Cop and its sequel Wolf cop 2:Another Wolf cop Just something to look at if you're looking for an off the rails, fun time
