It’s been a bit hectic, but overall, I’m doing amazing! I hope you’re doing well as well. You’re probably the first person to ask me that on this channel so I really appreciate it. I’m sure you have your own reasons for documenting. If views and subs aren’t your main reasons for doing so, then there is no reason is concern yourself of them. Knowing your purpose for documenting is very important because that’s what helps you be consistent. Thank you for the love and support on the videos. 1M subs would be great, but it isn’t the main objective of this channel. I’ve always wanted to provide value to people other than my friends and family so it’s comments like these that motivate me to make more. Again, thank you for the love and support🥰

College is what you make out of it. Take advantage of all the resources they provide, make good relationships, learn how to have intellectual discussions, learn how to write, and enjoy exploring different subjects. I didn’t like my college too so I took advantage of their study abroad program and got what I needed from there. Again, college is what you make out of it. It you’re not having a good time, then find a way to solve your issue. In terms of friends, I also didn’t have many friends in college either (or at least people that I considered my friends). I highly recommend exploring different organizations and clubs in your college. Those are the places you’ll have a better chance making friends. You sound like a nice and sincere person so just see what’s out there! It might be scary at first and you may not succeed all the time, but you won’t solve anything if you don’t try. You’d be surprised that there are good people out there😄

@@eliberkowitz9639 Hey Eli, just watched your video and it looks like you already have your own style and know how to tell a story. I do want to preface anything I'm saying with that I'm also relatively new to this so take my words with a grain of salt. I think you just need to put more practice on perfecting your craft. You may not know what that is yet, but I think figuring that out is part of the process. Honestly, I don't think I can nitpick on one aspect of the video because it looks like you're new to this and you're figuring things out. So my advice is just create more!

Yes! Bryan Adam Castillo has a whole cinematic video guide shot from an iPhone 13 Pro Max. Megan Tan also made videos with her phone that you can check out. Vuhlandes doesn’t use a phone, but you can definitely learn from how he shoots. There’s so much more on KZbin so I highly recommend you check it out for yourself. Cinematography is not about how expensive your camera is, but how you use the camera. Hope this helps!

thank you for the video! we always forget about it, but in the past even though not everyone wrote diaries or did artistic practices to reflect on events, but everyone eventually wrote letters to their loved ones, and kept them in the piles so that no memories were lost. honestly, felt the same way when in the end of summer 2023, when i had to go back from my hometown in estonia to the netherlands to continue studies. it was such a difficult time in terms of emotions - after i was away from my friends and family for a year, i could not find any connection with them anymore as it used to be. in this confusion and feeling of loss i managed to rethink the meaning of myself in my life - that life is not only what is going on around me and with me, but also largely what is happening inside of me. and after this month at home i was so afraid to lose these valuable details from the rare moments of a pure human connection with some of my friends, that on the last day before i had to leave i spent hours to make a numbered list of almost every day of that summer - and all the events and conversations i had then. all the minor details which i did not find too important at that moment but there still was this feeling inside of me that i cannot allow to lose these pieces of memories, all of them i tried to document of five pages in my notebook couldn't feel more grateful for it. still, even today, in the boring routine when something really interesting happens only a few times per week, i reflect on my thoughts and feelings a lot and keep on connecting today's experiences with those precious moments from the past. it helps to not lose the meaning of the friendships on the long distance, as well as strengthen the inner understanding of my own persona because no good future can be built without remembering and reflecting on your own past.

There are memories even I don’t want to remember, but I don’t just ignore them because anyone who has those kinds of memories know that they always stick with you. At that point, it’s a matter of how you handle them. Now, in the context of documenting, every memory or experience, whether good or bad, contributes to who you are today. How you document that is up to you. I’m not sure if I answered your question, but I hope this helps☺️

You’re in a wayyy better position than I am. You’re already making stuff when I just started in my late 20s! I’ll be making a video that answers your question in detail so I’ll try to get that out soon. For now, my advice is don’t worry about how well your video is going to do or if people would even watch it. Just get something out there first and then try to improve at least one aspect each video. I spent so much time planning and worrying for what I wanted the channel to be like even before putting out one video! At some point, I realized I just needed to get something out there. People these days want instant gratification when art is about the journey to creating your craft. Right now, focus on figuring out what your craft is. To do this, you need to put in a lot of practice and get results. My first videos were filmed on my iPhone X and I only recently upgraded because I had the means to do so and thought that it would get me more views. However, I couldn’t have been more wrong. There are so many other variables that make a great video. I know this was a lengthy answer, but I hope this helps! I look forward to your journey😁

I love how you captured a crush normally thats how they start with someone you usually see but never approach making the person think of them after just a glance. When he went home he clearly looks beaten from a long day but as soon as he thinks of seeing the woman his crush he feels at ease but he could also be beaten by the fact that they might not get together but still he has a glimmer of hope on his face. I also felt part of his heartbreak when he saw her with another guy i also liked the added wanna go for a run? 😂 even though that left some questions about who the text is from maybe a lover? Or friend? Still that last bit left me wanting to know more. Overall i think you did a amazing job at capturing the crush because usually having crushes most people Don't end up together its a awkward but interesting infatuation that doesn't always result in love. Just an idea i wanted to add that maybe you could make more films without added music just the pure sounds of daily life i feel as though people can connect through emotions with sounds and it also challenges you to make the movie with more depth and i feel like you'd do great at that if that's what you want but of course do what feels best to you! And thank you for making this wonderful film.
