If you're having fun being yourself and filming something that you would watch yourself, it becomes contagious for other people to watch, too.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My friends and I often film videos when we get together and hang out, and they're usually just silly situational videos just for our own amusement.
When I do videos, it's just myself.
It's a weird thing... putting your emotions out there for everybody to see while filming. I think it puts you in a kind of vulnerable state.
Filming is a witnessing process. You don't try to control it, even though sometimes you wish you could because it can go really, really wrong for you.
When I see someone filming me, I don't usually think, 'No, man, don't put this up online!' I'd think, 'Hey man, you don't get to go to shows very often, put down the camera and enjoy it!' I love going to theatre and to shows so much.
I always feel kind of awkward when I look at pictures of myself. Watching videos of myself is really uncomfortable.
But filming is good for you, because the crew isn't allowed to laugh. You can't get addicted to getting the laugh.
That's one of the great things about acting - you get to pretend you're somebody else, which is great if you get bored with yourself.
It's a very strange and quite terrifying experience to watch yourself on TV. I never like to do it with other people.
When you see yourself on video, you and your friends spending time on vacation, and they take a video, and then you see it, it's really disturbing.
