This is me giving and advice and telling you that you deserve a better quality of life.
So you might find this topic
random but let me assure you that you are not alone, in fact, I’m actually sure
that this might not make sense at all but I just want to blurt it out anyway.
Those who know me know that I
enjoy photography very well, although I can’t say I’m good at it, I know the
basic and try at times but not as serious as the others so let’s just say that
I enjoy photography in a critic way. When I see a photo, whether it’s in an
exhibit or online, I always appreciate it and think about how it was taken (the setting, the lens that was used, angle, and camera). I sometimes zoom in and
out and try to see it both in the big and little picture. I appreciate the perfect
imperfections of the background noise and texture, the amount of light, its
exposure. I enjoy it in an artistic way.
You know what, I’ll let you in a
little secret. My phone has been broken almost a year ago, it has dents- more
dents than a phone actually. But I can’t seem to replace it for two reasons, 1)
I’m saving to get a more durable phone that I can use for years because I think
electronic waste is a big no-no; and 2) I’m still not decided on what brand and
model to get. If I’m being honest I could have bought a new phone months ago
but my dilemma is what kind of phone to get. I’m looking for a phone with a great
camera because it is something that I need especially that I want to convey
stories. I want it to capture the things I want people to see.
In the other hand, when people
recommend a film or TV series that they have, my first question will always be
‘How’s the quality?’ I don’t mean it to sound bitchy or something, it’s just
how I am. I just think that watching a work of art is something that should be
done in high definition. Of course, it doesn’t apply to all. Sometimes I let it
slide especially in comedy films because what the film offers is its humor.
Maybe it’s the Mass Communication
major in me and the way we were taught back in college that makes me crave for
HD and I think nothing is wrong with that. It’s because I know how hard filmmakers do those - from the production and post-production stage. They are their
babies and they should be seen the best way possible.
You don’t have any idea how
frustrating it is to shoot a clip only to find out after that the focus is not
good! Or how hard it is to stabilize a moving shot without a stabilizer, and if
you have it’s not easy to use it because it’s heavy!
It will be a disgrace for the
filmmakers to watch their work just on a good level.
I now have backlogs of blog posts that I haven’t posted because of the scarcity of photos. I can’t choose what photos
to pick!
What I’m trying to say in this
post is that like all the films out there we are all deserving of a
High-Definition life. We are entitled to have the best things in life and what
we need to do is to reach for it. Sure, life can be shaky or too dark like some
films but remember that sometimes it is how the film should be. Sometimes it is
the filmmaker’s artistic way, it is their perfect imperfections.
So yes, you deserve a High
Definition life with the Creator’s artistic doing.
