Sunday Sum - 29th September 2024

Hey , welcome back to

The Sunday Summary

, a collection of insights and my behind the scenes from the past week.

💂🏻 🚕 A London update:A Solid OctoberI'm excited to be back in the UK and not travelling away. September was a gnarly month and it was quite difficult to fulfil videos on YouTube. I should hopefully be back to full force!Following from Disney, I managed to make it on BBC News and well as a feature live on BBC Radio London with Gaby Roslin, both complete chance rather than specifically me!.Non Disney related, big thanks to a subscriber who found a podcast where the legendary Geoguessr Rainbolt mentions my video I filmed around 3 years ago!  Would love to do more Geoguessr videos (awaiting fast internet).

📺 A YouTube update (I filmed a shift):I've filmed a shift video and will be uploading in October.  Yes I've gone against what I said in a previous video. I actually received a lot of backlash and some quite nasty (almost threatening emails) from subscribers, just because of my intention to not do the shift videos.Made this realisation when I watched a Francis Bourgeois video on YouTube, just how he captured his energy and enthusiasm on a day out transpotting, that's what I seek to capture in all my future videos.Perhaps I can make a way to make them more sustainable or edited in a way that I enjoy a bit more.Also I have got some extra ideas around filming in taxis that isn't related to work directly (allows for greater freedom of filming)  Stay tuned!🎥 A new camera:DJI Osmo Pocket 3This thing is absurd.It's been on my gear list for a while, but having some GoPro issues on my 24/7 London eats shoot (1 refused to turn on, the 2nd recorded with a low ISO because I couldn't preview the screen). This was the catalyst I needed to make the purhcase.It's basically the same image quality as my studio setup. But in a fraction of the size. It has a nice preview screen so I can instantly check on light, DJI mic plugs straight into it. Super incognito. Instantly powers on and stupendously good battery life!This is a game changer and it's already got me thinking of new content and formats I can capture with it.📺 What I'm watching:London's Most Prolific Graffiti WriterEver wondered what "10foot" is written everywhere?🎧 On heavy rotation:Raigeki - Unto OthersApple Music is a gem at finding me new artists📺 On YouTube This Week:
