  • In this short film, we explore the art of documenting your life. It may seem pointless at the present moment of documenting but there is so much more meaning than you know. It is far more important, than you could ever imagine. Enjoy old video clips that my father used to take of us as children! Hope you enjoy the video!

    A 60 year old woman recently told me that now is always the time to organize and start living your life because there's never a "perfect" time, do what you can right now because time itself waits for no one

    My grandpa used to take pictures of EVERYTHING me and my siblings did (when eating breakfast, putting on shoes, watching tv, just standing or walking, etc.) Now, as I look back at these photos, all I can do is smile. These seemingly pointless pictures are able to bring so many memories back to life and paint my past. You truly don’t know what you have till it’s merely a memory.

    • @Kotari22
      @Kotari22  Před 10 měsíci +6

      yes it's the initial thought of 'oh this is pointless' that actually has a lot of meaning later on. what was so simple is so meaningful, and a quick reminder that life is so pure and simple if we look into the little things :)

    I completely agree with you. I’m that friend in my group who’s always documenting and vlogging all the little things here and there, and sometimes they don’t understand my need to do what I do, but after watching this video I feel happy that I’ve been saving these little bits of our lives to cherish when we’re older :)

    My mother passed away when I was a child. The only photos we have together are from when I was very young, and I don't have any recordings of her. I can recall her appearance, her personality, certain incidents, and her touch, but her voice and mannerisms have faded from my memory. Whenever I try to remember, it becomes blurry, and the voices of other relatives replace hers. It's frustrating.
    However, I've learned a valuable lesson from this experience. Regardless of how others may perceive it, I capture moments in photographs - beautiful sunsets, scenes in nature, delicious meals, and I take selfies when I feel happy. I take pictures of things I'm proud of, experiences, and of my friends. Additionally, I ensure there are text messages, letters, voice messages, or even recipes from me for my loved ones. I make sure to express my feelings towards them regularly and randomly. I want my friends and family to have something to remember me by, so they don't have to experience the same frustration I do when trying to recall cherished moments.
    The passing of my grandmother, who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's shortly before her death, emphasised the importance of holding onto memories even more strongly. We never know what the future holds or how much we'll remember as the years pass. That's why I've started documenting all my memories of family members as well. I make sure that nothing will be forgotten. I don't share these memories online; I keep them for myself to cherish and revisit.
    I will never stop doing this.
    And I ask any of you with children, PLEASE take pictures regularly, record videos, ensure your children have recipes in your handwriting... Let them have a collection of memories with you - whether it's for when they miss you or after you're gone.

      thank you for the beautiful story that you've shared with us! I am so sorry for the events that has happened to your life. though we can't change the events, we can cherish the times and look back and yes we must do things so we arent forgotten about. think in future for anyone else to see when you pass away because there's no timer that tells us when we will die. it could happen today tomorrow next week next year or in a couple of decades. our age doesn't determine our death. it's a sad reality to face but that is why our life is meaningful, the impact that one can create with one life is beautiful! I am glad you enjoyed the video!

But I loved how you helped me reframe my thinking -- I want to do this to record the mundane and capture the beauty of it. To slow down time when time moves so fast. To appreciate. To create a legacy for my kid. Beautifully told!

    Lately I've heard comments about me recording everything, also people that "put their whole lives in a video", but those are precious moments I'm living and also preserving. It is nice when the work is done and we can all watch the christmas videos or my childhood VHS and I thank my grandparents for teaching me that. It's like traveling in time and I love it. Now we have the whole tools for that and I'll use them a lot. 😊

    This was lovely. I often get in my head about “no one wants to watch this stuff” or “why am I sharing this picture” and I have to stop myself and say “hang on I WANT to see this stuff!” It’s so nice to be able to look back through my photos/videos each year and see all the little events that made my year. And especially after losing so many photos from 2005-2016 due to not backing up files/deleting my fb etc I realise how much I’ll appreciate looking back on these moments in 10-20years time.

    This is such a beautiful video. Memory isn't perfect and it's so nostalgic and sometimes emotional to look back on the person you used to be whether that's through photos, videos, diary entries or any artistic expression. You're never gonna be this person again, so might as well collect all these little moments, to look back on, when you're someone else. When you're someone new.

I've been watching lots of home videos and it makes me so happy to see how excited everyone used to get when a camera was out - pulling silly faces and cracking jokes, I want to rediscover that feeling in this modern age. I also want to have footage to look back on when I'm old and wrinkly. This was awesome!

    I always got embarrassed every time I filmed outside or even inside our home, I felt like people would just laugh at me and give me weird looks that's why I always regret the times when I didn't get the chance to document the moment I wanted, like birthdays, school days, hangouts w/ friends, or even just a simple routine I always do, I really wanna capture and document every moment in my life, worst or happiest day, as long as I have something I can look back, something I can reminisce every day when I get old. That's why when I saw the title, I didn't hesitate to click the video for some motivation and encouragement. Now, this is my sign to finish all the video clips that I need to edit and collage all the photos for my journal since my phone and camera storage are also not in the mood😫, anw, thank you for this, Kota!

    My support goes out to you as a fellow young person trying to become a content creator. It's way harder than people realize and I love watching other small youtubers because it makes me feel part of something bigger than my self. If you ever want to collaborate, lmk, I'm open to anything!

    Beautiful video! You're so right. I made a few travel vlogs in the past where I visited friends in Norway, for example, and I still occasionally look at those and it's just amazing to be able to relive that time. I haven't been using my camera at all in the past year or so, but I'm inspired to get back into it. ☺️

    maybe i should just do it, regardless of what it will look like.

      theres beauty in everything. it can be the leaves brushing against each other, the sound of the waves crashing, capturing moments with your family. i think the important thing is to not care about what you are recording but to just hit record :) you've got this man!

I saw your video and started actually making just daily video which can eventually make me more CONSIOUS of my daily's...I am 17 from INDIA and preparing for a very tough exam (IIT JEE) (maybe 2nd toughest in all world) and This thing or idea which you proposed actually HELPED me and my study hours are more than 12 (normal and necessary for this exam) for more than 23 DAYS or so...

    "maybe get a hard drive, storage sucks". I totally get that as a creator myself, it really does suck lol🤣Anyways, you video is great but can I give you some constructive advice? Hope you don't mind. When it comes to cinematography, you really nailed it with the style and cc, but I feel like you repeat the message a lot. I get that you want the viewer to get your point, but I think it would be much better to use that time to slow down your video and let the viewer digest all the information.
