I was forced to make a video about myself for one of my classes. Initially, the overwhelming possibilities of exactly HOW I wanted to portray myself left me thumbing through absolutely every photo of myself I could get a hold of. Then, I remembered my Professor's words; she said that no one used awkward, ugly, embarrassing, or religious* photos. I decided to use all of the above for my project. Let's be honest, I am all of the above. In the end, I opted to 'tell a story' since I don't exactly have a lot of my older photos in digital format.
*Disclaimer- the religious photos are of my wedding, which was non-religious... which is what I wanted. This was because my husband and I have differing opinions on the almighty- he believes there isn't one, and I believe there are dozens of them. I still believe that we had a religious ceremony, however, since I could feel an enormous sense of being watched. That might have been because of the paying audience, though.
