I watched both parts but will comment here. I think you're on to something good with this, Mason. Interesting and original here. Keep it up! I can pretty well bet you'll have a loyal audience.

Thanks. I was afraid it would be too boring. Glad somebody enjoys it.

It is a bit scary as well. You start thinking the camera is your eyes, and they are all over the road! I have to keep reminding myself that where the camera goes is not necessarily where you are going!

But I agree with Shovel too. Keep it up!

Never get to see the perspective of a trucker...I think it's interesting...maybe I can document my zookeeper job if all goes according to plan...don't expect that for at least another 3 years, though.

I actually thought about that while watching what I had recorded. No, my eyes are always on the business at hand, that's why some of the shots leave a lot to be desired. I'm trying to aim the camera while keeping my eye on the road.

While driving a rig I do have to constantly scan around checking the road in front, the mirrors on each side, and the instruments. I tried to reflect some of that in the videos but it's difficult while actually operating the rig safely.

Thanks.

Thanks. I try to limit shooting indoors as many people don't like being filmed. You'll notice you don't really see other people in those shots. I try to respect the privacy of others.

Enjoyed the shots of the countryside, the titling and the transitions. You catch on fast.

Thanks, I'm learning as I go.

v. cool. I haven't seen the others yet, but will check them out. It's weird to not only put a face with a name, but to put a voice to it, too. Your voice is exactly how I would expect you to sound!
