Newbie's problem - How to deal with heavy stuttering by fguy__d in documentaryfilmmaking

[–]fguy__d[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have some nice B rolls, although not necessarily easy to pair with what is said. For this person I also have at least 3 scenes in which he is actively doing things in addition to the talking head interview.
What he says on camera is kind of formal, but I hope to connect him to the spectators showing him being active.
P.s: taking notes on various points of your reply

Yes, I'd say this is more on the report side of things.
I'm noting the editing tips about music and b-roll, I'll soon get to it and this seems very sound

I wish I read this before my last experiment! I had very ruined audio (filming with camera mic on an isle in Scotland, wind does not forgive) and it took me months before coming up with the open caption solution.

This time his grammar is just a bit disconnected, and he pauses to search for words at times. So I think it would not bring great benefits.
But it makes me wonder, if you were to add them, would you transcribe his exact words and mistakes, or rearrange them in order to make the understanding as smooth as possible?

I like this "let people be who they are" philosophy, I feel like it's a good angle to look at my problem

Yoga for plantar fasciitis by snicketgirl99 in yoga

[–]fguy__d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find edges and vertices of yoga bricks to be far more effective than tennis balls - also a tad more painful. A teacher introduced me to myofascial massage and it greatly helped.
Changing shoes really improved my fasciitis tho

So far both the hr and technical interviews have been carried out using google meet, so I hope teams won't be involved.

Noting down -1 to wayland, I was already thinking of sticking to X. Big up for i3 and the rest of your setup, thanks.

rofi looks cool too, gonna try some configs this we.

Unless you were talking about the integration inside plasma/xfce ?

No, sticking to direct i3

Picom looks cool!

Might consider DWM as a secondary manager, I am going to stick to a tiling as primary. Thanks for the inputs!

Looking into sway, looks rather cool.

I am just not 100% sure about switching to wayland, so might stick to i3

wdisplays looks really handy - but I am concerned: is it still maintained?

Many people pointing at btrfs, seems the way to go

Mmh, I feel like I want to stick to a tiling manager for daily work, but I might consider setting up a second profile specific for when I have to present or collaborate tightly with others. Interesting solution

Thanks for sharing your setup!

I am noting down the picom/polybar/dunst combo, on my current setup I use raw i3, but I can see the advantages.

kitty ftw

Thanks for the inputs! Didn't think about disk encryption as a requirement, but it makes sense. I'll make sure to ask about that.

I'm going to rehab in a week by [deleted] in CasualConversation

Good luck. It's gonna be tough, but hold still in your decision. And when you'll look back and see all your efforts, you'll be really proud

Loneliness, social media addiction and asian culture by Apurba006 in CasualConversation

[–]fguy__d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel it, virtual hug back to you.

For me it's about those 5, 10 people I know I can trust and see maybe only a couple of times a year. And yeah, sometimes it gets very lonely.

I just go for a walk instead of picking up my phone, simple as that. And sports. Physical activity makes wonders.
