This summer while shooting my thesis film, I took photos on my old digicam only to find afterwards that it had been recording video clips while taking photos completely at random ā I love the moments in these videos so much, and their utter lack of intention while we were out here putting everything we had into making something full of intention š¤”ā¤ļøāš„ cāest la vie! cāest filmmaking!! Here they are, alongside many other moments captured by other peopleās cameras
