danieldouloslee Posted May 25, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 25, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) This COVID19 season has given me reason to finally work on a video from our trip to Japan last October...all related to street photography. Having created this in the wee hours of the night that eventually bled into the morning last Friday, I am still content with it despite its imperfections; some clips are shaky, I could've shown the photos for a longer duration. Watching this reminds me how simple life was prior to COVID, where human interaction was carefree, and I strongly yearn for times like this again. I would greatly appreciate it if you would indulge me for a couple of minutes of your time. Even more so if you have any comments/critiques as well. Last but definitely not the least, would love to give a big shoutout to my wife for letting me out on the streets from 10pm-2am to capture these moments as she tends to the kids at night. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Hi danieldouloslee, Take a look here Japan with a M10-P, 35mm Cron IV and a 50 APO. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
benqui Posted May 25, 2020 Share #2 Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Very good! A perfect mixture between photos and video, very professional. Really a highlight! Edited May 25, 2020 by benqui 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
evikne Posted May 25, 2020 Share #3 Posted May 25, 2020 Great video! Nice combination of lenses too, one modern and one classic. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knipsknecht Posted May 25, 2020 Share #4 Posted May 25, 2020 I really enjoyed this video! I‘ve seen Japan as I know it and as I love it. Thank you, Daniel😉👋! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmars Posted May 25, 2020 Share #5 Posted May 25, 2020 Wonderful Video, really great shots (master of colors), only the music is annoying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danieldouloslee Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted May 25, 2020 thanks @benqui! no professional here. just a mere hobbyist. still have lots to learn and learn how to take better b-roll footage @evikne - a part of me regrets selling the v4. I didn't like how non-modern it was, but now I think it's a lens I should reacquire again as I have the 35 FLE to pair it (though I am mostly a 50mm street shooter) @Knipsknecht - I wish we can go back to pre-COVID times.. I also played with the idea of working from Korea/Japan while my company (and NYC) works out the COVID situation. thanks @elmars, regarding the music, I wonder if it's because they are two songs superimposed on each other to give it that ethereal vibe. I totally get what you're saying as I thought the same, but mostly because I'm used to hearing both tracks separately. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do it too, with both 35 and 50 mm lenses (and I am also mostly a 50mm shooter). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanetomlane Posted May 27, 2020 Share #8 Posted May 27, 2020 Brilliant, really enjoyed it, particularly the way in which you have mixed video and stills. https://photographybytomlane.com 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
