Ep. 112 - Comparison Is the Thief of Joy: Why Scrolling Instagram Is Wrecking Your Confidence
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You finish a wedding film. You're genuinely proud of it. You send it to the couple, get back a message saying it's the best money they spent on the day. Then you open Instagram and within ten minutes you're convinced you're not good enough to be doing this job.
Danny and Jason are back after their first ever skipped week, and they're getting into something every wedding filmmaker feels but rarely says out loud. The industry is improving fast, almost too fast, and it's becoming harder than ever to scroll without comparing your work to someone else's highlight reel from a better lit day with a bigger budget and a smoother run of show.
They talk honestly about the mental spiral that happens when you post a teaser you're proud of and immediately get served fifteen other videographers' best work, why nobody's wedding day is actually as flawless as the final film makes it look, and the now infamous story from a CODA event where a videographer broke down everything that went wrong behind one of his most celebrated films, gimbal failure and all.
Danny also shares the reality of trying new gear on a live wedding day, including a camcorder handed to the wrong bridesmaid entirely, and why experimenting in public always feels worse before it gets better. The conclusion is simple but worth hearing again: you're not making films for your peers, you're making them for the people who were actually there, and that's the only comparison that matters.
A more personal one this week, but a genuinely important reminder if Instagram has been getting to you lately.
