I have this thing say, for example, Vlogging that I would really like to do. So, I rush about making sure that I have everything I need to produce a vlog of actually quite good quality. There are three fairly major problems.
I had this thing about speaking and videoing in public, actually getting out with the camera probably my phone mounted on the tripod or on the gambol. I was extremely self conscious, really embarrassed to speak if there was somebody about. Plus I wasn’t speaking in what I’d call my normal voice, it was very artificial.
What to video? My thoughts were to produce some videos talking about the history of Gosport. Now that should really have been easy because there is a lot of it about. So what is stopping me from doing it? So part of it is preparing to produce the video. What do I say? How much time is needed to prepare to shoot? Time for post production, so many things to think about and how often would I do this? Did I even have the time?
I did come up with an idea, indoors with some videos I end up with the same problem; actually getting out and doing it. Setting up the kit for indoor really doesn’t require much, what I want to film is straightforward (this is the the indoor thing), and my talking will be mostly ad-lib. Now this should be really easy, so why can’t I do it? Now outdoors is a bit more complex especially in terms of what to say. I think that it is the amount of effort required to prepare for the act of videoing that is putting me off. It’s a bit more than that though, I haven’t done it, so how do I know how much effort is required? It’s just the thought of the effort, which really isn’t good enough.
As they say, just do it.
