Why I Didn't Dress Proper Like

Why I Didn't Dress Proper Like

In the video below I'm wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up. No jacket. Hair a little messed. No make up on (I always prefer to be made up like a Clown at every opportunity).

A good question someone asked is "Shouldn't you be portraying a very professional image - shouldn't you be wearing a jacket at least?"

Good point. I think.

But I think it's really important to be authentic and just do it. If we had of got the dress right and then the lighting then the make up then the script, etc - then you wouldn't see the video for a week.

And the point was to do it quickly.

Action always beats analysis . Just do it. Measure and test. Then do it again.
Don't be paralyzed by analysis.

Cheers

Brendon

It's funny you say that. Whenever I do TV or get interviewed for web video stories I show my dad but he doesn't comment on anything I have said yet makes remarks on my hair and clothes. I could have cured cancer or been accused of kicking puppies yet it's always going to be That's great but if you wore a proper shirt and tie that would have been so much better. Glad to see it's not a family thing. Content is not king, being unique should be discouraged, authenticity is overrated and appearing as a generic normal stereotype is tops.
