Narration

glasses and akebi

Narration is along with the video.、explain its contents、"Narrative" that gives psychological depth to images。When actually making a video、There's also the option of subtitles.、You can use them at the same time if you want to emphasize them.。If it's a video that explains something、One ideal would be to be able to understand the content without narration or subtitles.、At first I thought。

But、unspecified number of people、It seems impossible to remove narration and subtitles from videos aimed at the general public.。first、I get sleepy without a voice。to some extent、For videos that require volume、Even if it's a video that you can understand just by watching it、If you don't add an accent at the right time, you'll get bored.。And、For example, even if I remove the narration from my “Watercolor Painting Video”、Those who draw it themselves will understand, but、For those who have almost never drawn、If you don't show the point that "this is important"、I'll pass by without being noticed。For those people、It is said that it is kind to include an explanation that is easy to understand.、That's what I think from my point of view。

There are also things like ``looking good'' and ``listening good''.。I feel healed just by listening to that person's voice.、I feel energized、There is definitely a "voice" that makes you feel like the world is expanding.。That's the power of narration。-Even though I say that、I don't have that kind of talent、Think only about proper narration。But、As you can imagine、this is very difficult。“Watercolor painting…” does it refer to the movement of the brush?、Should I mention the color?、Is it better to say it in the context of the overall flow?、While I was thinking about this and that, the scene kept changing.。If you put in a lot of words、The screen gets longer and longer。vice versa、Sometimes I have a draft that I would like to explain a little more.、already cut the scene、Sometimes I run out of space (because I'm an amateur)。

Besides,、I said the wrong thing many times、misread。Re-record each time。When it's hard to say、The text must be edited to make it easier to read.。There is also noise。There were times when I found myself in an ambulance without even realizing it (because there was no soundproof room).。I don't do video editing as a job.、The amount of time you can do everything at once is limited.。If you change the date and time、Sometimes the tone of my voice sounds like a completely different person.。An announcer whose voice quality is always stable is、I feel once again that he is a professional.。In many videos, he is talking fluently while filming.、that's difficult for me。20It can take several days to narrate just a minute-long video.、Not uncommon for me。-Meanwhile、How about painting a single piece or an actual watercolor painting? When I hear the narration in my heart,、Even more stressful。

President Zelensky

Russia's invasion of Ukraine、I'm sure many people are hurting (and vice versa for half of them)、It seems to be the ``common sense around the world'' to think that)。If you are an elderly person、in the Azovstar steel complex in Mariupol, a major port city along the Black Sea.、The Azov battalion and Ukrainian army barricaded themselves against the overwhelming strength of the Russian army recently(5/16)“Finish the mission” at night、including wounded soldiers、Although in the Russian region、One part surrenders、The news that he was transferred、I think there were many people who felt relieved in a humanitarian sense.。

For President Zelenskiy of Ukraine (no need to profile him anymore)、In some ways it was a difficult decision, but、Well calculated even for an amateur、I think it's the best decision。Even compared to the Japanese Imperial Army's "gyokusai" tactics (whether it can be called a tactic or not) in the Pacific War,、2021Compared to President Biden's announcement of the withdrawal date for Afghanistan in September 2019,、A step above rationality in every sense of the word.、It was a calm decision.。

2/24Immediately after the dawn invasion of the Russian army、Ukraine suddenly lost its anti-aircraft defense capabilities.、It seemed like。The subsequent unilateral air strikes、They are supposed to be “ignorant about diplomacy,” “ignorant about war,” and “politically ignorant.”、Zelensky, a ``comedian-turned-comedian'' (who happened to become president), was horrified and fled the country.、It will only call itself a ``government in exile'' while lying on the bed prepared by the United States.、Many people predicted that、he didn't do that。Rather、It shows those predictions turned 180 degrees upside down.。5/17At present、Why Ukraine still maintains high morale in territorial defense、ひとえに彼のこの姿勢が原点になったといっても過言ではない

まさに映画のヒーローそのものでありゼレンスキー氏自身が当の映画人であってみれば「彼が(たまたま)大統領に選ばれた映画」そのものをいまだに演じ続けていておそらく心の奥底で彼の役者魂がかえって彼を真の大統領に為しえているとわたしは想像する彼の冷静さも自分と役柄との微妙な呼吸からどこかで自分自身をカメラで追っている感覚それが彼を本物のヒーローにしているひとつの力なのではないだろうか

An "object" called "original"

I bought two pots of clematis as a motif.。bloomed every year、large flower、A velvety blue clematis、For some reason he doesn't show up this year。While walking, I sometimes catch glimpses of clematis elsewhere.、I feel like the one we had at home was the best.、quite disappointing。

Last 2-3 years、I've been spending a lot of time on CG sketches and video production.、The number of works that remain in our possession as physical objects has decreased considerably.。Even CG is definitely a work.、From the feeling that I have been drawing on canvas and sketchbooks even though I have been treated as a nuisance for many years,、Somehow (no、I feel like it's quite unsatisfactory。
There's nothing special about it intuitively just because it's drawn on paper.。But、There is definitely one here、There is something like a sense of security。It's easy though、For now, does it feel like an "original"?。Even with CG、Although it is possible to create “original” works such as NFTs,、I still somehow rely on the equation that hand-drawn = original (even if the meaning has changed over time)。Is it just a generation gap?。

if、If the equation "hand-drawn = original" remains unchanged、From the unchanging path that we have followed through many decades of struggle,、I guess I'm a little separated。At this age、I've only just taken a step into the world of CG.、At that time, I intuitively realized that this equation would no longer make sense.、I have not forgotten that I had a small determination to go astray.。

Original hand-drawn items too、Original by CG too、socially anyway、For individual creators, it may not actually be that different.。Even so、Looking at the reality that modern paintings still cost hundreds of millions of yen,、Original = exclusive、I feel like I can see firsthand the strength of the equation of human material desire.。
