Be crative through cinematography

An afternoon with nothing to do (again) and i finally decided to post this one. Now, i would like to share about my other interest. Other artform that i like is the art of filming a video and making it beautiful to watch or usually called cinematography (filmography). It's one interesting art because for me, it showcases the ability and creativity of the video maker to find the artistic side of everything, even simple things like a cup of coffee. For example, when you're given the task to film a report about a concert. A regular guy might just record the whole concert from the beginning to the end just by focusing on the stage and the performers. But a creative filmmaker would of course do it differently. He/she would notice other elements that could make the video a beauty to watch, such as the audiences, the ceiling, or even down to the seats and floor. For those who still don't get what i mean, here is a video from Michael Herp , a cinematographer and also a card artist


Not everyone will agree with me, but i think that video above is a joy to watch. From that short clip, we could see that everything, including a usual, simple thing such as making a coffee has the beauty inside. It just depends on how you view that something as. Creativity is the key.
