Haha. No. Whole thing.
Scary part is, I’m so old. On that’s what I started on.
Edit: fuck. I’m older. Started on VHS-C.

Trying to think of the best use of hi 8 in a skate video. There’s a manzoori shot of someone doing a 360 flip at Stockwell, can’t remember who or which video… but it’s perfect
Eastern Eposure 3. All of it.
Welcome to Hell. All of it.

Some Super 8 in that (it’s usually used for the life style shots). The End was 16mm irc.
Super 8 is the home movie of film where as 16mm is more professional. They usually need the sound dubbed on after too.
I remember a guy that posted on here did a full Super 8 video for Nike (with Nick Jensen, ect).
Had my first 121 at new job after being there 3 months, went super well and they seem really happy with me. Pretty gassed as they didn’t have anything negative to say really.
Also working in the cannabis industry feels like when I first started working in the skateboard industry - same like ‘I enjoy my job feel’.

Hi8 is just old “high quality” VHS. All your mid 90s faves were shot on it (video Days was probably VHS or VHS C or just 8mm). It is a magnetic tape system.
Super 8 is an 8mm film reel. Not magnetic.
I already shoot a lot of Super8. But its £50 for 2.5 mins of film and then to get it processed and scanned, its another £100 these days.
Used to be £20 for a roll and stick it on the projector and film the wall.
I can see the confusion between Super8 and Hi8. Especially when you realise that there is 8mm film - the precursor to Super8 - and 8mm magnetic tape - the precursor to Hi8.
Film snobs probably didn’t talk to the magnetic gang BITD and look at the mess they made.

I’m subjected to 1:1s every week with my manager. Annoying as they are, they should be pretty regular.
Assuming this was more likely your probation period review? Which is great if that went well.
I have a tacit agreement with my boss that we just over communicate every day so we don’t have to both suffer through 121s. Hate having them, hate doing them.

Wtf. That sounds like a dystopian nightmare. Fuck that.
I’ve been thinking of getting the dad cam out again, just looking for the charger. Terrible quality, budget fisheye, lovely.

Every week I used to have a Monday morning kickoff meeting and a Friday recap meeting. And then a big quarterly review. Totally overkill and i’m glad it’s been fucked off.

I love my 1-1s, usually never have to loads to say so we end up talking about skating or filming for about an hour.
Cannot go wrong with that.

my last job i was farmed out to a large bank for server security stuff and we had 90 minutes worth of catchup calls EVERYDAY. 30 minutes in the morning, 60 in the afternoon. it was impossible to get anything done
current job is a weekly 1-2-1 and like @Pedromayn we just chat shit for most of it. he knows i do my job and would bring anything that needs attention to him outside of the meeting. when you work remotely a lot it’s nice to have a private chat sometimes

A kid that I taught in my first year of teaching who I sadly felt sure was destined for bad things has just rocked up to visit us all.
Knocked the drugs on the head, hench as fuck, got a job as a PT.
“Thanks for reminding me I was worth more than being some mid level shotta bellend.”
I almost cried.
