High quality. Good video - glad youtube recommended it
Really appreciate that!
Great job as usual. Liked the subtle introduction of the background oriental instrumental music when he was discussing his appreciation for the Japanese artisans. His remarks about passion and satisfaction derived from doing something one loves and the remarkable way things just seem to appear that affirm the decision to pursue it reminds me a lot of the recent conversations we've had about your own journey!
I man that know himself A man that is no from this world so beautiful
A very wise man indeed. I have believed throughout my adult life that anything worth doing is worth doing with your whole heart and soul and love. What you create reflects on who you are, your inner character. So to present your work is to present yourself, no matter what it is. Josh, your heart and passion for what you do are plainly evident in your videos. It's a joy to see it in you, and in those whom you feature. As always, well done!!
Take care!! 🥰♥️
☺Thank you kindly for continuing to watch the work!
Joshua you never disappoint. This was surely another great storyteller. As he talks, you can tell the love, passion, pride and enjoyment he has in his work. Yes there are many beautiful manufactured products out there, but there is nothing like something made by hand. As he said, it does give off a different energy. You can tell he has learned more than just making beautiful art with these pieces. He has learned alot about himself, others and life and that makes the love that carries through into his work. I love his reasons and his concept of why he does what he does. Nothing like working with your hands and seeing the finished product at the end. Joshua I really enjoy the storyteller videos you do. You also have an art that shows through in all your videos. You may have a different product here, but your videos have that love and energy as well. You can tell that by the outcome of your videos, because they are so well put together with much care, time, love, energy and thought. Your heart also shows the level of care for the person(s) in these videos. Another great storyteller! Keep them coming!
Thanks for all the feedback, really REALLY appreciate it ☺
What a fascinating interview and presentation! I really noted and enjoyed the variety of camera angles, shots, and distances used. Seeing the "confetti" actually being created in the process, seeing the cut on his finger that was healing, panning around the shop for unique shots that enhanced this gentleman's work - all of these added so much to his descriptions and musings about what he does and what he has learned. I may be naive in saying this, but he shares what I have seen and heard from successful and happy people in various walks of life - he both enjoys the work and knows himself very well, applying all of who he is to the task at hand. I have a collection of wood chess sets, and I will attest to the difference in "feel" of one that has been made with the love and care he describes versus something that may appear "perfect" but lacks personality and "life", if that makes sense - like champagne that has gone flat.
Precisely!...apt description- "like champagne that has gone flat."
