Could you stand in front of a recording camera and talk to it?
 
i really dont think i can
i absolutely hate being on camera, knowing my every move is being recorded
any one the same?

ALIEN ANAL 11.16.2008 02:20 AM

yeh i find it really weird too
i dont think i could handle being on big brother

i was thinking about that show
it had the potential to be interesting
but all i was was a big sex and prize show kinda thing

it could have been a cool study on humans and their behaviour

Alex's Trip 11.16.2008 03:57 AM

I think big brother is interesting at times. A lot of dumb shit, but I like to see them plot against each other. It's extremely unhealthy.

davenotdead 11.16.2008 03:59 AM

i don't fear the camera.

is this an aussie thing? when we did our first film project, me and the other american dude ended up doing all the lines, and a canadian dude was directing... none of our aussie classmates were into it

al shabbray 11.16.2008 04:30 AM

I dont like it too

sarramkrop 11.16.2008 04:39 AM

I am being filmed about 300 times a day, so it shouldn't be a problem.

terriblecanyons 11.16.2008 04:40 AM

I am currently uploading a video of me standing in front of a recording camera, talking to it.

Yeah, being a porn star gets you used to those kinds of things.

al shabbray 11.16.2008 04:41 AM

Why? To prove that I can stand in front of a recording camera and talk to it.

It was a reference to cctv cameras. I couldn't have sex in front of one.

terriblecanyons 11.16.2008 04:44 AM

I hate those things. Ever since the Ring.

al shabbray 11.16.2008 04:45 AM

is london this bad?

there was an experimental film project in the 80ies where an artist showed himself walking 30 minutes through hannover to his workplace without a single gap inbetween some cctv cameras...
I wonder how it is almost 30 years later

sarramkrop 11.16.2008 04:48 AM

They only start recording if you're sexy.

al shabbray 11.16.2008 04:51 AM

hahaha
must have been a sexy badass.
I cant recall his name, was the same who afterwards built drones to try to put the US army under surveillance, too.
pretty insane guy. spent a shitload to build those drones, and of course they got shot

greedrex 11.16.2008 04:52 AM

it doesn't bother me.

BUT OH MY GOD I CAN STAND IN FRONT OF A CAMERA AND TALK TO IT WHERE IS MY MOTHERFUCKING MEDAL.

pbradley 11.16.2008 04:56 AM

Music playing in the background. What is it.

Sounds like a dog trying furiously to hump a leg or something.

sarramkrop 11.16.2008 05:16 AM

Thanks. And sorry for wearing cheap make up.

ploesj 11.16.2008 05:35 AM

i tend to think about what i do and say more, so maybe it's a good thing.

Green_mind 11.16.2008 07:49 AM

yeah me too, silenced by contemplation. I have never liked being in the spotlight though.

atsonicpark 11.16.2008 08:03 AM

yep.

not shy in the leasst.

pbradley 11.16.2008 08:39 AM

I haven't been in front of a video camera in a long time so its hard for me to tell how I might react. I don't think I would mind.

ihateyouth 11.16.2008 05:05 PM

It's somewhat therapeutic.

I dont like to but I can.

I have a cooking show I made with my old housemate on a dv tape that I'll you tube if I can figure out how to do that.

GeneticKiss 11.16.2008 11:52 PM

I absolutely love being on camera, on stage, etc...

Case in point below...

Rob Instigator 11.17.2008 12:08 PM

I hosted a Public Access Talk show called The Only Funny Show on Access like forveer ago. it is hard to get used to talking in front of the camera.
