I don't really know what I want to shoot, I like when I see really nice atmospheric shots on youtube or social media that have a lot of style and character. Now 50%+ of that character is probably just good colour grading and how the shot was taken but still, even if this Canon FD is a blunder it's like 160 bucks invested including the adaptor and it will at least get me out a few times to shoot some stuff. Much better than spending 1100 CAD on the 3 set Sirui's and realizing i'm just not skilled enough to make real use of them yet. Anyways, I watched a 2hr video from the Media Division youtube channel on the Canon FDs and how they are very based and saw lots of examples also how they are very similar and optically the same as the K35 Cine lenses etc video seemed pretty convincing. Now i'm sure they had the lens attached to some insane ARRI Camera or something and I'll be a bit disappointed with it on my R10 but still.
tldr: Just want to take/learn how to take more atmospheric shots, get better at colour grading and setting up vibes/atmosphere but still don't have any real idea of a concrete thing I want to shoot like a short or things like that. The most I could think of is going to a car meet and taking some atmospheric establishment shots capturing the vibe of the meet, then take "cinematic" video of the cars spliced in with some more atmospheric vibe shots to then post on Youtube or Instagram but I don't really like posting on instagram because your basically forced to shoot in portrait which I don't like in video at all.
