15 of My Favorite Things
My girls are bringing me into the modern world of videos for the blog. One did the setup for me, the other put the various takes together into the finished piece.
The imperfect blurry graphic lead? Yep, all me baby. I got 99 skills but this isn’t one, yet.
I didn’t see the video until she was through, and it took a bit of courage to actually post it. It shows my, well, dorky side. The false starts and the “cuts” were included.
She assured me it accurately represented part of who I am.
It seemed appropriate to go ahead with it because I laughed. It is good to laugh at ourselves, and not take life so seriously all the time. Let’s include more of that in 2016.
The ability to step back, not be so self-critical (like I was tempted to do about this video, remember I am just a regular gal) and accept the beautiful imperfections of our everyday moments.
The Wabi-Sabi of video production in this case.
I am not a professional videographer, clearly. Just a girl with a camera and a heart for encouragement. And importantly, the ability to laugh at herself and just be “real”. Not edited for social media and perfection. We could perhaps use a bit more of this 🙂
