i used to be real into videography, especially in high school. the thing that made me switch to photography is the fact that it is so difficult to find worthwhile subject matter with video, but with photography you can just go outside and walk around if you're bored and take good photographs. with video/film it seems like it has to be something worthy of your time shooting, like it has to have a final purpose. basically the first question you should ask a potential customer.. 'who/what is your audience'. i always found myself asking that every time i picked up the video camera and more often than not the answer was "me". with photography it seemed more worth the money for good equipment because it's one frame, you can just snap the picture, edit it a bit, look at it, then save it to a folder named 'random' and only show it once in a while if you felt like it.
haha, quite a thorough explanation, but hopefully it makes sense.
i would love to get into videography again if i had something worthwhile to shoot. it's actually a lot of fun, i enjoy editing the most.
