Description
In this video I got a spontaneous rush of motivation to go do something and attempt to also film it. I always struggle thinking to myself "is this interesting enough?" well in an attempt to create more content I feel this was fun enough to share and also a good excuse to share some of myself with you and work in some fun flying footage.

Fun Fact: When I was chillin in my local student run coffee shop, shooting slow motion stuff, this song was playing and I thought it worked great with the footage I got when I was reviewing it. So it was perfect to use it in the montage to portray very accurately the mood of the moments captured.

Camera Stuff that I used in this video:
- Sony a6500: http://amzn.to/2ibGC5c
- - Also check out the lower end versions of that camera: a6300 http://amzn.to/2kq9fI3 and a6000 http://amzn.to/2l1Imw9
I personally don't recommend getting the kit lense. It is small and convenient but really handicaps a good camera bringing it down to smartphone image quality.
- 18-105mm f/4 lense (Super versatile and epic optical image stabilization. Great for video. The constant aperture is good but still the widest aperture of f/4 isn't the greatest for low light or crazy bokeh at lower focal lengths and although impressive looking, it is a bit big and harder to travel with): http://amzn.to/2kexpcA
-35mm f/1.8 prime (Used for cinematic slow-mo coffee shots. Super sharp, great shallow depth of field and great for low light) http://amzn.to/2j6iald
