I know why my social media content never takes off — well, besides not being broadly interesting or entertaining 😉 It’s because I’m lazy. Or, perhaps, sugar-coated: I’m only willing to put maximum effort into a limited range of creative output.
For example, I was briefly enamored of the idea examining visual style — specifically, “lyrical style” — using Instagram and building the slides in Picsart. Click on the pix and take a look. You’ll notice I left the most important part undone. Part 3 should have brought the two ideas together, which would have been interesting and enlightening — at least to me.
For those of you who didn’t click through: I attempted to come to some understanding of “lyrical style” in documentary cinematography by mashing together the “decisive moment” and the Malick dogma.
Now part 3 isn’t just wandering around in my head. I haven’t expressed it. So it really doesn’t exist yet. I recall the E.M Forster quote: “How do I know what I think until I see what I say.” I want to know what I mean. So I have to finish the thought.
I’m just not going to do it on Instagram. I’ll do it here.
Well, not right this second. Gimme a minute 🙂
