3 ways to enjoy the process of photography/videography
Get creative while enjoying the process of it.
It is important to enjoy the process of whatever we do in life, so we can do the best we can at it. It doesn’t matter if it’s a product you have or any type of service such as photography/videography, quality is the top priority and that can only be possible by having our heart and soul into it.
Enjoying the process of photography/videography is actually easier than you think. Everything we see in our everyday lives can be captured in videos and photos. We just need to take initiative to take action on how we want to make it look. There are ways to capture memories check this blog out.
There is no simple answer to different ways to enjoy what we do as creators. But here are some highlights of the top three ways we can enjoy taking photos and videos.
- Take photos/videos everyday
Everyday we go through certain experiences and capturing those experiences on a everyday basis can give us new prospective on seeing the same thing differently. This is powerful because as creators, we have to see things to differently to make it stand out from the crowd. Simple things like a dog sitting on the floor can have such captivating image. This angle of image can only be taken with a camera because we don’t look at a dog from that down low.
This creative angle can be followed up by video as well. A unique way to look at this dog can give viewers new prospective that is interesting. This process of taking photos/videos every day will force you to be creative with your shots.
2. Follow creators online that do things differently
My first example would be Peter McKinnon. This dude is amazing at what he does. He take photos/videos in ways that we would not think of. Why do we need to look at what this guys does? This is because this will give us inspiration on thing that we can do ourselves. He also has a YouTube channel where he shows how is does things. This has inspired me to make videos and take photos in ways I would have never thought of before hand.
3. Volunteer to take photos/videos for free
Why is this important? This is to push our creative side to the limits. When taking photos and videos of someone else, we put ourselves on a pedestal. I have to do good. This forces us to try new things out. The new angle and shots. number 1 and number 2 have prepared us to follow number 3. This is where we do what we enjoy and in the long-term get recommendations that can get us paid.
This phase can really show us how much we enjoy the process because working for someone for free is not rewarding financially but it is challenging creatively.
These tips are useful for me and i can not guarantee it works for everybody.
