✨I’m testing video work. This time I’m practicing conveying fleeting moments of Miyazaki’s nature and daily life through footage. I’m working with short clips to create a sense of presence.

I capture moments that appeal to the senses: sunlight on the sea and the sound of waves, the breeze in the forest, and the lingering notes of festival flutes and drums. I’m experimenting to see if viewers can feel shifting light and human breath within brief takes. Please tell me about volume or picture quality differences when you watch.

I’m also doing test shoots to find the right shooting points, adjusting the direction of light and microphone for fine tuning. When filming on the road, comfortable shoes, spare batteries, and sunscreen help you feel prepared. For outdoor events like kagura, bring warm clothing for the evening chill.

On this account I’ll keep adding short videos to share seasonal moods and the afterglow of festivals. If there are places or scenes you’d like to see, let me know in the comments and I’ll use them as references for the next shoot. I’d be glad if you save or share your favorites; they might help with your travel planning.

In the footage I’m capturing moments like the soft morning light dyeing the sea and the slow sway of wind shadows along rice-field ridges. Small footprints at the water’s edge and early-morning conversations in a port town gain depth when edited into short cuts. Slightly emphasizing the colors and textures on screen can strengthen the unity of sound and image, but don’t overdo it—keep it subtle. The landscapes you encounter while filming are once-in-a-lifetime; ordinary frames often become lasting memories. If you like, tell me your preferences for music or subtitles during shoots—I’ll take them into account. Also, I always observe filming etiquette by being considerate of locals and other visitors so as not to disturb them. I make time between takes to experience local food and customs, because I want to preserve the small stories that come from those moments in my videos. I will reflect the feedback I receive in future shoots to create videos that better convey the atmosphere of each destination. I’ll also share useful tips about gear and editing for those interested, little by little, so feel free to reach out. I will continue testing to deliver footage that lets you feel Miyazaki’s appeal. If you like it, save it and add it to your next-trip list. #video test #travel
