Wait… this was an incredible video. I’ve been looking more for these kinds of videos that have such a huge focus on visual storytelling. I say this over and over, my favorite storytelling principal is don’t give 4, give 2+2. The “sorry we’re closed” shot and the momentum built up in the cinematography and editing was so much more powerful than someone in selfie mode just saying “Aw man it’s closed.” I felt a gut punch when I saw that lol I am not over exaggerating by saying this was one of the most inspirational KZfaq videos I’ve seen in a long time when it comes to my own filmmaking ☺️

The thing you said at 5:25 is really inspiring. "Its your lens you see the world through" I've recently been struggling with thinking i have no worth in this world and i've been feeling like an npc who is doing the same thing everyday in autopilot mode. This video woke me up pretty much and changed my perspective and made me remember again that i am the one who's in control of my own life.
