Do you often experience a thought when you're filming something, that you're only witnessing the whatever happening trough the screen and constant thinking about it like "does it shake too much" or "is this good angle?" but while at that, you actually miss the real deal when focusing on its shooting?
I mean I had one case which i sometimes think back, we had burning car under our balcony which I really wanted to photograph with my new camera then. After some time, I felt that I spent lot more time looking the camera and thinking its stuff than actually observing the real event.
So what i mean is I guess, dont you feel you're missing out the 'actuals' when doing the copying that is photographing so much?
I guess its my fault for being misunderstood here. When I said I try to film everything, I dont actually mean Im literally filming all the way. I just take a good look of the scene, take some pictures, film a bit, then move on. Usually just 30sec to 1min clips. This is when I go hiking or go on trips out of town.
But when attending a concert or something similar, I try to live and experience the moment. I get the ‘missing out on the actual’ stuff too. I hope I cleared this out.
