Practicing my video taking skillz also ;)

I recently started learning how to create Shorts and TikTok videos, using my free time to practice camera movements. Yesterday, I had a few minutes after lunch to take some short videos. Feeling motivated, I decided to walk around our backyard, whipped out my phone, and did a few test shots to see if they were good enough to post.

While taking videos, I also paused occasionally to snap some photos. Essentially, I’m practicing both my photography and videography skills using my phone. Since I see myself as a hobbyist, I stick to using my phone for now. I’m not sure yet if I want to pursue it more seriously, so for now, I’m just enjoying the process—exploring and capturing moments through my photos and videos.

We have a beautiful piece of nature in our backyard, which I thought would make a great subject for my video tests. The scenes I found also worked well for photography. But before sharing the photos I took, I wanted to share the short videos I stitched together into a YouTube Shorts video.

I posted the video on both YouTube and TikTok, but I actually edited it using TikTok. I feel like the app offers more useful tools. It also has an AutoCut feature that intelligently trims videos based on the template I choose, making it incredibly easy to use.

As promised, here are the photos I captured during the pauses while filming the short videos.

Exploring both photography and videography with just my phone has been a fun and creative journey. Whether or not I take it more seriously in the future, I’m enjoying the process of capturing moments and experimenting with different techniques. I’d love to hear your thoughts—do you prefer photography, videography, or a mix of both?

That's so cool! It looks cinematic. Doing short videos are fun and sometimes even challenging when you're limiting your video into x seconds and you have to fit and cut some other shots for that. It's so much fun nowadays too where you can use whatever audio without having to use only the royalty free or creative common ones. :D

I like doing both photography and video. :D

Nice to see you playing with video as well. The problem with video is the amount of footage takes up loads of space.

Video feels more challenging to me so that's probably the one that I'm interested right now 😜

I love them, the pictures are beautiful. I would say stunning. The most exemplary is the form and textures that nature itself offers.

The video is cool, it involves you.
