    Out of all the ex digital rev guys, I get most excited when I see a video upload from you. Really love the feel of your videos.

    I really like these types of videos because it's not a "camera a review" or "how to take a better picture". It's someone doing something the like with a camera, and talking about what they are passionate about.

    I really agreed with you on that last part. I like taking photos for the artistic side in me, though in the end its those goofy photos of my friends that I cherish privately.

    Beautifully written and produced; it's sometimes good to reflect on the bittersweet, boring, or less-than-ideal moments when traveling; things that aren't always conveyed by showy displays of 'happiness' to present to other people as a front.

    I feel like photos & videos are such an extension to ourselves, that trying to manage my content & aesthetics often feels like I'm managing who I am too. This is such a beautiful video, both the videography & message, really resonated with me.

    Wonderful video essay, Ian! You work is always thoughtful and insightful. It has the sparkle of intelligence. The visuals and editing was amazing. Great job Ian and Anne!
    Love the transition at 6:10, the calm tone of your voice, the minimalist music in the background, and the peaceful landscape drone shots..the tempo of the cuts was very musical, as well.

    This video is really excellent Ian. Your comment about changing photos to reflect something that does not represent the actual event was very good. And true. I used to go to Switzerland frequently for work. To me it is a bit idyllic, except the weather can be dreary for someone like me who's hometown is San Diego. I used to go and spend a week in Zurich and it would rain for a week. Not always. One of the reasons the Swiss built all those incline railroads and cable cars was to get over on top of the clouds and to see the sun in winter. And it is very expensive. Some of my ancestors came from there. So I understand the mentality when I go there a bit.

    Kudos for a nice edit, Anne (btw, it's amazing how the blue sky at 04:22 pushes to the foreground although it technically is out of focus like the rest of the background --- an effect I lastly had recognized with red colors on E6 film).
    And of course thank you, Ian, for reminding us of the (many, different) purpose(s) of photography. As a personal example: In the mid 80ies, my high school class and I spent a week at Rome on a field excursion. The only places of interest I can recall by name today are thoese we visited during the first four days, when I had not run out of film (not yet!).
    Most of my shots contained dear class mates, and I wish I had already scanned all of them to put them on Facebook for the former attendees. It would be a blast!
    Later on, I could even sell some selected architecture shots to a tourist guidebook publishing house. Obviously, this was a totally different audience: No person included, of course. At the time, I just called it luck and a day. Somehow, and certainly without knowing by this time, I had the right gut instinct like 'shoot whatever you can, you'll never know what purpose it might serve...' This has become even easier due to digital photography nowadays, no more need to alloting precious film. Your inspiring video just added structure and reason to this!

    What a wonderful video! I actually share your opinion in almost all points. As for me it became increasingly difficult to decide what to share and on which platform, just because there are so many possibilities. In the end I usually share nothing and my photos and videos just disappear on my hard drive.. :(

    • @IanWong
      @IanWong  7 лет назад +1

      I have to admit I do that too sometimes - it can be awesome going back in a few years and finding out what you shot. But in the meantime, go ahead and upload!
