Perhaps aesthetics are more interesting, beautiful, and free when we &#8216;degrade&#8217; or &#8216;worsen&#8217; the &#8220;image quality&#8221;.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What I mean is this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>When you use VHS cam, there are all these &#8216;hipster&#8217; analogue\/retro effects. I actually think they&#8217;re super cool! The &#8216;lo-fi&#8217; aesthetic is far more beautiful and interesting to me than the Uber-clean default video setting on iPhone or any other commercial smartphone.<\/li><li>The date and timestamp is really fascinating. It gives you a sense of time and place&#8211; and it adds more dynamic moving elements to the video. <\/li><li>Recording things &#8220;lo-fi&#8221; takes up less storage and space, which also makes it faster to upload it online. Compare this to shooting 4K video &#8212; which takes FOREVER to upload online. It seems that <strong>smaller file sizes are better.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extracting stills from VHS CAM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a fun thing you can do from video:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Re-play the video, then pause the video and take screenshots of moments you find interesting.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is like &#8216;double-dipping&#8217;: you can shoot video AND photo at the same time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shooting stills WHILE recording videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another function:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On VHS CAM, <em>while<\/em> you&#8217;re recording you can push and hold the record button to take still photos. This allows you to take a hybrid approach to photography and video&#8211; to get the upside of the dynamic moving videos and audio, while also being able to extract still images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shoot both video AND photos!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been thinking a lot about how we can continue to evolve and grow as visual artists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A simple idea:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Embrace both photo AND video. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It seems the best film makers (Stanley Kubrick) we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re also great photographers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, great photographers (Robert Capa) also experimented with shooting films. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately if you want more inspiration for your photography (or videography)\u00e2\u20ac\u201d embrace the opposite, to feed into this creative cycle of inspiration and motivation. There are many things video can do which photo can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do, and many things photo can do that video can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In life, you can have your steak and eat it too. Do BOTH video AND photo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ERIC<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
