Why you should shoot video every day

This is an article by Izzy Hyman about how you should record video everyday for multiple different reasons. Izzy gets right down to it with his first reason on you become more familiar with your equipment. He mentions that he doesn't have to flip through his camera manual because he knows exactly how it works as he uses it everyday. Next he talks about how practice makes perfect as the more you use your equipment, the better you get at it. So when you move on to a big project, you're more than prepared for it. Next point is on how it encourages you to experiment. The more you film stuff, the more you are more willing to step away from your comfort zone and try more things. Next is on how you identify your strengths and weaknesses. The more you mess around you can see what you are really good at, and really bad at. And you can work on really pushing on what you're good at, and improving what you're not so good at. Next is that you will build a habit. This meaning you built a habit of doing something good already, so maybe you will do that with good video making as well. And his final point is on how searching for stuff inspires you. You try to do more new things, and really find ways on how to do stuff that hasn't been done before. I thought this article was severely okay. I mean it's not a bad idea to do this type of stuff but I didn't really like the way the article was written overall. It's a good idea to build good habits but you shouldn't force yourself to do this type of stuff everyday if you don't want to.
