🎬Don’t get over-charged with expensive pay-per-clip pricing. Embrace the freedom of an unlimited library with Storyblocks: www.storyblocks.com/VictorLaforteza Thank you for watching this vulnerable side of me. For anyone who might be experiencing the same, I suggest you to try get a break from your craft and do something you haven't done or something you really enjoy doing. Other things will somehow spark some inspiration and get you going again. Don't be afraid to get the thing you've always wanted. It really helps getting into the groove and it keeps you motivated to stay creative!

That really hit home when you mentioned the importance of drawing that line between getting content vs enjoying the moment, it def can be hard at times to balance that

Take photos that please you, the photographer. It’s an art form therefore completely subjective, so people either won’t like it or will. The only thing that matters is how you personally feel about it.

I have this very same Fujifilm camera. The results straight out of camera. are fantastic. The way the flash works seamlessly with this camera is brilliant. The great thing is that when you take a portrait picture the person does not feel intimidated at all. Will not be selling it anytime soon 😅

Really enjoyed this! I’ve just sacrificed my Nikon to buy an X100F and have been going through some withdrawals and self doubt. Struggles with focusing and using recipes as well as trusting what I was doing despite what I was seeing in the rear viewfinder. Your video helped me chill a bit ;) But like you… I’d become stale in my DSLR and had lost interest… the X100F has made me slow down and look at everything in a different way.
@VictorLaforteza 7 ай бұрын
X100F is a pure gem! Gotta love how it makes you slow down and focus on the basics as well.

very valuable insights, thank you. how do you handle the "pressure" to constantly also shoot video on a trip like that?
@VictorLaforteza Жыл бұрын
You're welcome! I had dedicated days for shooting! in this this I had 2 out of 6 days. The rest I had my camera with me and see if I could shoot anything good in between anything. If I got a good shot, great. If not, I just let it go and move on to what I'm doing next.

I am hitting a brick wall myself too. Everywhere I go, I bring my sony A7r4 or r3, I am thinking of getting a 2nd hand X100F and hoping just to go back to the bare basic and find some motivation on my creative eyes! You video came up just in time! Great stuff buddy! Never compare your own work with others, stay focus!

I take pictures as a hobby and wasn't having much fun with my Sony A6000 so I sold it, went a couple years without a camera but then I found out about Fuji X series and bought an used X100F and I never felt so emotional about the photos I take, I'm loving it

Hey victor, I am your fan from Rajasthan, INDIA. Learning lot from your videos. Your FX30 series is just best💯 on youtube. The cinematic video and the rise start of music behind that is what i like the most. You also include humans, nature and small things in your cinematography, i love that. 👍Keep it up!! Best wishes ❤ Mr. Victor . And one more thing - Idea of using Yellow Color subtitles is just wow.
