Self Portrait Video

Self-Portrait Video The Adventures of Layne and Holly             For my self-portrait, I chose to include myself playing with my dog, Holly. We got Holly about five years ago when my previous dog passed away, after my cousins adopted her brother. Ever since, a lot of my free time around the house is spent with Holly, so I thought she would be the perfect way to represent myself.          Setting up the camera was a challenge because everything was soaking wet since my video was filmed between downpours. I finally found a spot eventually, but it was on an extremely thin surface where my phone would likely fall off. I made it work though, and managed to get the framing I wanted. The lighting wasn't quite what I wanted, but with the gray skies on Sunday, I knew I wouldn't be able to get normal lighting.         Ultimately, I hope for my viewers to gain an understanding of just how much of my time goes into playing with the dog so she won't be annoying at night t
