The title says it all - videography is hard! I was out and about in Philadelphia today (along with my lovely mother, who's birthday it was!) and I tried taking some video shots for my vlog intro reel - epic fail. Firstly, it was cloudy and gross today, so the light was rough. Secondly, it was snowing. Thirdly, it was cold. Fourthly - I'm not a videographer.
Thankfully, I have cute pictures of my dog, Loki, to save this post:
It was Loki's third birthday on Friday (hence the special occasion bowtie)... Happy birthday Loki!
So back to the videography - there was none today. I'm sorry, my fellow citizens - I've failed. I'm heading back to good ol' Richmond tomorrow though, so I'm hoping for some good shots on the road... I'm really hell bent on getting a couple of cool time lapse shots of traveling over a bridge!
I've storyboarded out what I'd like to do - I'll probably clean up my scribbles and share them out so you can get an idea of what I have in my head. I've also gotten the materials together for my first real "try", so exciting updates to come!
In lieu of beautifully crafted shots of me frolicking in front of graffiti walls and gorgeous shots of a waterfront, here's a video of my Mom's birthday, complete with an embarrassingly large candle (that look on her face is a cross between abject fear and rage). And forgive the quality - it's an iPhone video in bad light!
So be sure to stay tuned for other nuggets of fun and excitement - and keep your eyes peeled for some epic Ikea footage!
