This is not my typical style of video, so forgive me for how it looks. I learned my lesson about lighting a long time ago but when you don't have the equipment to work with you just make what you can. I really need to get a second light to cast a hue on the background, or maybe even have a hairlight. No matter how the look of this video comes off though I hope that my message comes across loud and clear. The Fallout show is good, great in fact! Actually it probably helps that lots of people don't bother watching these types of videos, so the way people treat "content" will be a boon to me here.
I've actually got an idea for another vlog about how I don't like what we call "content" these days. It's the general idea that lots of stuff we use for entertainment is so throwaway that we don't even pay attention to it in the moment when we "watch" it. I use quotations there because so often no one actually watches the video element. So frequently a video is mostly put on as a podcast meant only to be glanced at once in a while as you're busy doing something else. That entire idea just bothers me, especially since so much of the videos I've made over my life have been particularly slaved over to make sure most if not every frame is put to maximum use. And that's all gone to waste when people put it on as simple background noise.
Whoops, I think I just gave away the idea for my next vlog, assuming a reasonable number of people actually watch this video and encourage me to do another anyway.
Right, I think I've said enough, thanks to the two people who actually dove deep enough into the description to read this!
