I Made A Video

I had the idea late last year to start a vlog but, over time, realized I don't really have any ideas for a vlog that are interesting enough to overcome my reticence to be on camera. But while I thought about different things I could do, I shot the occasional bit of video - sometimes straight recordings, sometimes timelapses, which I prefer.

As it stands, I have quite a lot of unused video and a basic shyness about putting it online. But a couple weekends ago, I was in Odaiba for a friend's event, and I thought, screw it, and recorded a timelapse to edit and upload. And here it is.

In a way, this is freeing. Having put up a video already, I'm oddly eager to do it again - as if it was a hurdle I needed to clear before I could really attempt to run out in the open. We'll see if that turns into anything, but for now, flawed as it is, here's video #1.

Odaiba beach time-lapse test from my new-to-me GoPro Hero 4 Black. I assembled and rendered the shots in Photoshop, then exported the video, titles, and music via Final Cut X. Shot September 3rd, 2017.
