Hey guys,
It's been a while since my last upload, and I thought I'd leave an update for you guys in case anyone was wondering where I went.
To be straight with you, I don't have anything in the works right now, and I have yet to decide when to get back into making videos. I've been a bit bored and unhappy with my photography lately and haven't had much motivation to work on anything new or existing since early August, so instead of trying to force myself to make stuff, I've been taking a break to enjoy other things and hopefully reset my creativity.
I want to get back into the swing of things, but I don't know when yet; hopefully, before the end of the year.
Other than that, I have a trip planned for the Philippines in December, which I am excited about, and I plan to make a video or two while I'm there. So, if nothing else, there's that to look forward to, at least!
In the meantime, thanks for your understanding. I'll be back before long :)
Also, do you guys want to see more Vlogs, POVs, or cinematic videos?

Hello everyone!
It's been a minute.
Those of you that follow me on instagram might already know, but for those of you that don't, I'm currently outside Japan visiting family in Arizona, USA, until the end of this month. I'm not planning to do any filming while I'm here--though I will of course be taking photos whenever there is an opportunity--as I want to focus on spending time with family and friends, but also just to relax and not work lol.
That said, I did finish up some videos before arriving here a little over a week ago and will be uploading them over the next few weeks (though, probably with more space in between than my typical upload routine, at least until I'm back in Japan)
Next one is a POV in Yokohama that should be out sometime this Saturday.
Hope you all have a great weekend, and as always, thank you for supporting the channel ;)

Hey guys, there will not be a video this weekend, unfortunately.
At the time of shooting, there was some kind of Harry Potter exhibition going on and they were blasting the HP soundtrack all over the streets. While I didn’t think too much of it at the time, it’s been a nightmare to work with.
I also wasn’t prepared for the poor weather that day (inaccurate weather forecast), so I overall wasn’t too happy with how the footage turned out anyway.
So rather than trying to polish a turd, I’m just going to shelve it and move on to the next.
Sooo see y’all next week. 😅😁

I’m going to push back my next video until next week, the 15th.
Last week was pretty busy for me, and I spent most of it not at home, so I haven’t had as much time to work on photo and video editing to be ready for an upload this week.
That said, part of was spent traveling to make a video, so look forward to that soon (if you saw my IG stories last week, you might have an inkling 🙂).
Also, I did just release a new blog post about my recent day trip to Enoshima, so if you want catch up a bit with what I’ve been up to and see some interesting photos from a recent adventure, you can check it out with this link: open.substack.com/pub/jamesfordjp/p/a-day-trip-to-…

Any interest in seeing longer format videos? (30-60 mins potentially)
I've kept most of my videos in the 10-15 min range and highly edited, but I am curious if there is any interest in watching longer format videos with fewer cuts and more urban exploration as I talk more in the moment while walking around looking for photo opportunities. I'd likely keep things simple and not add any music throughout so guys can hear more of the urban ambiance.
I should note that if I did make any, they wouldn't be too frequent, and I'd just be sprinkling them in between my standard format videos from time to time.
Let me know your thoughts!
