River Fishing Experience: Part 1 Video Released | Kaizen Learning Journey

Yesterday, I shared the first part of our memorable river fishing experience. As I rekindled my passion for videography after a long hiatus, I’ve realized there’s much to learn in terms of video shooting, scripting, and editing.

In response to my wife’s astute critique about my slow video production, I decided to take a leap and release my first video on my personal YouTube channel. If you’re interested in watching my debut and future releases, you can find the link to my channel by clicking the YouTube icon on my page.

I’m excited to announce that the second part of our river fishing adventure will be released next week, followed by the third part the week after. I’ve dedicated the past few days to learning from Skillshare courses, focusing on generating new video ideas, crafting scripts, and mastering advanced editing techniques.

This journey of learning and growth is invigorating. Your feedback on my videos would be invaluable to me.

In my pursuit of accelerating my videography skills, I’ve committed to embracing the Japanese improvement philosophy of “Kaizen” (ๆ”นๅ–„), which champions continuous enhancement. By making small, incremental changes to my processes, I aim to elevate the quality, efficiency, and impact of my content.

Join me as I strive for improvement and share in the joy of progress. Thanks for being part of this journey!
