Experiment: YouTube on Mute.

I played a video on YouTube. But I wanted to not use sound this time.

Looking at her, there was a thought of: “She looks like a girl, that wants your attention over a cup of tea.”

I continued watching and saw another camera angel, her doing the thing, she is talking about. And another thought: “This is for camera too.” It wasn’t natural, she was talking about journaling. And the camera took her, noting. Behind a desk.

Few, times I heard actors, talk about how you need to forget there is any camera. Otherwise, it’s not natural. “Oh, yeah.”

Now the thing was probably that, there was a sense of her needing it, or the video, like she didn’t make the video, for fun. But for having it.

And another thought, immediately about someone, that I didn’t seem this way. Pewdiepie.

Oh, and when she started more, or the video continued deeper, there was a sense of less of this, need for attention. There was more involvement, in what she was saying.

Yeah, that’s all.
