Re: [Lee846] Female Outlook on BASE -- after 9 month of waiting:)
Hi Lika
I got the DVD today and i have to say, some of your camera work and the jumps are truly stunning. I really loved watching it and was very impressed.
My one comment which i hope is helpful to you, is that after watching it, i still don't know anything about you. I would have liked to have got a glimpse into the person behind the images. You know, the stuff the happens just before and just after the jumps. Do you get knackered climbing that local of yours, do you get cold, do you get scared, all the footage which you probably cut out cos you thought was of no interest, but i think it is.
The wood chopping at the end was class. It was a window into some little story which must have meant something to you or you wouldn't have included it. Consequently it means something to the viewer too.
BASE footage is great on it's own, but put a human story behind it and it becomes utterly fascinating. I think you have a great story to tell (in fact i know you do cos you posted about how you were becoming disillusioned at one point) and with your next video you should really tell it.
Keep up the great jumping and amazing camera work. Look forward to your next offering
