All language subtitles for Episode 12 Patreon

Hello friends, how are you?

How are things going?

I hope everything goes as well as possible,

welcome to another chapter.

Here we are working as one in the

middle of quarantine, both in the videos that

you are watching for Patreon and now we

are totally focused on what would be our

image as a company.

When I say image or face washing, it

is that we are trying to change from

top to bottom the web and social networks.

If I speak of social networks, I am

mainly talking about Instagram.

In this chapter we want to talk about

an element that we have completely changed and

I am talking about a video in which

we had on the old page and well,

that video was a little bit because we

showed who we were but we showed who

we were as photographers and not as people.

In the video that you are going to

see now, it is a video that we

have recorded very few days ago and in

which we are seen or we try to

show who we are as people, who is

hiding behind all those photos.

Before you watch the video that we show

you now, I want you to pause it

and go for a moment for some popcorn,

go for a Coca-Cola and watch it

calmly.

It is a video that lasts 10 minutes,

okay?

But you are going to see that it

is not long, it is very, very interesting.

When the video is over, you are going

to have me here to comment on it

in depth, okay?

Until now, friends.

How are you?

I'm going for a walk now.

Well, we'll join you.

Okay.

If you let us.

Yes, of course.

Well, throw us in.

What do you think when you cook?

Well, it calms me down a lot.

I mean, I don't think much either, but

I'm a little aware of what I'm doing,

right?

And when you swim, is it the same?

No, when I swim there is time to

think, right?

This morning I was in the pool, as

always, swimming for 40 minutes, thinking about a

few things.

What things were you thinking about?

Mainly photography, right?

And already thinking a little about what the

season is, right?

In the season that is about to fall.

Don't you get nervous?

A lot.

And if it weren't for her, you know?

If it weren't for Erika, who always stops

my feet and always makes me be on

the ground.

I don't know how to sit down.

I'm nervous.

Are you nervous these days?

A lot.

Really?

Yes.

I don't like this at all.

I don't know why, but I do want

to sit down, man.

One, two, three, four.

Do you have a dream?

No, but after eating, there is always a

moment of laziness.

When was the last time you cried a

lot?

When Leo arrived?

Yes.

For me, yes.

Tears, laughter.

I think I was making as much effort

as she was.

I was there with my fists closed like

this, and I was squeezing and pulling against

the wall.

No?

Yes, yes, yes.

What a story.

Look at this picture.

Look at this one.

Look, look, look.

Who is this?

The mother.

The mother.

And you?

Don't look at me.

Look at the screen.

Don't look at me.

Who is this handsome boy?

Say something.

The grandma.

You are eating the prawns so well, Victor.

No!

But how did you eat them?

You leave them there.

No way.

Yes.

Oh my God.

What's up, Leo?

Have you seen me?

Maybe because I'm very shy, I come up

every time I see someone smiling who doesn't

know anyone.

For me, it's like a triumph.

It's silly.

But I like to be a sleepy and

happy boy.

Are you going to give him the prawns?

I'm going to put it straight.

In this life, no one can give anyone

anything.

I hope he sees that everything we do,

in the end, we do it with passion,

or that we are happy with what we

do.

What are you looking for in your photos?

What are we looking for in our photos?

What a difficult question.

Look at that guy.

It's another way to try to capture or

photograph something that is not so obvious.

The problem is that sometimes I don't know

why I do that.

There is no perfect wedding.

But a perfect wedding for us is one

in which the boyfriends forget about us, laugh,

cry, fall to the ground, make a toast,

laugh again, fall in love again.

It's like a carousel.

Yes, it is.

Every wedding is different.

You can never have expectations about a wedding.

In the end, it's like we have to

go with a blank slate.

We tell each other stories.

Stories that are incredible, sometimes.

Do you have any childhood memories?

In my town.

Running from street to street.

Like in a wedding, basically.

Yes.

In the town, which is close to where

he lives, I would arrive and it was

like salvation.

It was like absolute freedom.

I was always excited.

He would go fishing, for example, in the

afternoons.

He would come home full of mosquito bites,

but happy.

My father used to tell me, you have

to be something, but to be something, you

have to be a man of profit.

He never told me to take pictures.

No, it wasn't for him.

Of course.

My father also came to Barcelona for no

reason.

You can't cry.

Come on, man.

Hey, no.

Wait for mom to arrive, no?

When does your story as a couple begin?

At the disco.

Yes, at the disco in Fraga.

I had to arrive at the disco, to

which I would take pictures.

A girl arrived, well, two girls.

And the moment she gave me her phone,

I put blue eyes on her.

And I was like this, because I had

blue eyes.

Why do you get along with each other?

Because I have a lot of patience.

Of course.

What do you think you are contributing to

each other?

Memories, no?

For a future.

Memories about their own lives, about their own.

And a little bit of art.

No?

Why do you want to make this video?

Many times there are people who see, for

example, our images, and they believe that we

are very serious people, or very cold, or

very distant.

Very basic.

I always say that I am the simplest

guy in the world.

What is a wedding?

Emotion.

Exciting.

Impressive.

Incredible.

Iberosimile.

We are not satisfied with little, because in

photography we are not, but in our personal

life, with what we have, we are happy.

Where is the magic of things for you?

In the simple.

Yes, in the simplest.

In the simplest.

What will go through your head when you

go down the stairs, when you wait for

your father, and when you meet the car

with which you went to school?

I came back when I was 5 years

old, when my father was going to pick

me up with my sandwich, to school.

Nervous?

Your arrival at the ceremony.

Reliable.

That is the best moment.

Always, always.

It is strange, because you see a lot

of people, but in the end you are

just looking at yourself.

In reality, for example, a wedding is always

the king and the queen, which is not

the same, and the magic of this is

always the people.

Each one of us is from our mother,

and from our different parents, so there is

perhaps the emotion.

How was Erika's entrance?

It was apotheosic.

It was like live music.

No, no, no.

It was very simple.

She was a little queen, who was very

small.

We decided it by looking through the mirror,

because it was closed, and since it was

a pedanía, there was no priest who could

open it for us.

Looking through the mirror, and seeing her from

the outside, we said, here we get married.

All our friends, when they see the beloved

one, they laugh.

They think of her as mine, and of

ours too.

All the effort here...

There were illusions, the illusions, to form a

family...

Sure.

And I promised him that I would have

the girl I had the day he got

married.

I mean, the happy girl who had again

achieved the one I would be again.

And what do you promise your partners?

That they will have their story.

That they will have the best story ever

told.

And always as if it were a kinder

egg, with a little surprise inside.

There is always something more.

And I remember, when we entered, as if

it were now, we were recording a panoramic,

and she was listening.

I think we will be very happy living

here.

And then you have the fact that you

are very clownish, very clueless...

Clueless too, yes, a lot.

But yes, I love it.

The passion with which he does things, that

is very cool.

And a good dreamer, right?

Yes, and that a lot.

It is true, every day...

Well, I hope you liked it.

You see that it is a very personal

video, and it was about that, right?

As I told you, well, our photos were

shown, and well, we talked a little bit

about how we lived the weddings, but the

tone in which we talked about it, the

tone in which we explained that the video

was super impersonal, so we wanted to give

it a twist, we wanted to give it

a wash, and we did not want to

show the photographers that we are, but the

people that we are.

We had realized that we did not have

the engagement that we wanted.

I mean, after the photographs that we did,

after the titulitis, I mean, after the amount

of awards, conferences and all this, we had

realized that we were more known, or we

are more known among photographers than among couples.

Yes, although it seems strange, it really is

like that, right?

So the origin of making a video is

mainly to get a greater engagement with our

couples.

As I told you, something very, very important,

several months ago, a couple contacted me and

told me, literally, this is true, hey, hey,

are you free on July 20th?

I say yes, and so on.

They meet with us, and the thing they

tell us in the interview, in the first

interview, then, why weren't we the first option

for you?

And he says, no, because for me you

were as unassumable, as inaccessible.

In addition, I had heard rumors that you

were very expensive.

Sure, and I laugh and say, what do

you think we are expensive?

I mean, how expensive are we?

And he tells me, I think you are

around a figure that is unattainable.

Sure, when they told us what the figure

was, they didn't contact us, Sure, when

we are seeing that some photographer, for example,

we are talking about us, what you see

are only images, you are seeing the Instagram

feed, or you see, for example, the web,

and you see only images, but you don't

see who is hiding behind, and you see

that those photographers have won awards, and they

are also visiting conferences, of course, although we

have had problems to hire so far, and

I touch wood, but I think that quite

complicated times are coming, in which making good

photos is not going to be enough, but

also we are going to have to show

who we are, and it was something that

we were going through a lot, so we

hired a team of videographers, they are called

En Su Video, they are a team of

videographers from Barcelona, in which we had, we

had several weddings, as we have coincided with

many videographers, but when we started to think

what kind of things we wanted to show,

how we wanted to show ourselves, how we

wanted to expose ourselves to the world, we

thought about different options as videographers, and we

saw that the En Su team could fit

perfectly, because it is their style, that is,

to tell the soul of the people in

front of them, so we put ourselves in

their hands, and I think that the work

they have done is really important.

What we wanted to show, as we have

told you, is our personal side, is to

hide a little that titulitis, to hide a

little those awards, which in a way, for

some things have gone very well for us,

but for other things they are not working

so well for us, because as I have

already told you, there are couples who seem

to have a different perception, because even when

we have met with some couple, they have

come to tell us that we thought you

were in a different way.

Of course, what we had thought of you

is that as we have seen that you

travel so much, that you have weddings abroad,

we have also seen that you win awards,

and we thought, well, maybe these photographers do

not even answer us, or maybe they are

not photographers who would like to photograph our

wedding.

Of course, when they tell us that, for

example, for couples, we quickly understood that we

had to make a video in which we

would tell who we were, and what we

decided, well, we wanted to make a video

in our house, in the place where we

live.

We did not want to make a video

in which, well, it seemed like an epic

video, very epic, and in

a certain way that it was cold, that

it was distant, and what we intended was

just the opposite.

If we wanted to call En Subidio to

record us, it was to do something personal,

to transmit who we are.

We wanted to do it here, we wanted

to be seen in the workplace, and above

all, we wanted to be seen laughing at

us, getting angry with Biela, with our pet,

and with our mistakes, our successes, how we

are as people.

Well, of course, the times that run are

not the best times, but the truth is

that, like all of you, or like the

majority, the vast majority of weddings have been

postponed, there is no income, or there is

not, of course, an amount of money that

goes in monthly, as it would be normal

in a wedding season as we are now,

and the truth is that it was quite

difficult for us to decide, because you say,

how are we going to pay for a

product if we do not receive money?

But like the logo, we

have to keep working, we have to keep

improving, and we have to keep being constant.

The day we think that we already have

everything done, we already have some incredible photos,

we already have a divine web, we will

really die.

In the moment that we are conformists, we

will no longer work.

So the first one was Erika, and she

said, no, we are going to push forward,

we are going to call Enso, and we

are going to try to make those couples

who have not called us because maybe they

thought that we were unassumable or unattainable, rethink

it and tell them to count on us.

The mission of this video is 100%

marketing, it is not thought like the previous

one for both photographers and couples, but this

video is only thought for couples, 100%

for them, to show the personal side, to

show them that if you take a look

at what our website is, in the section

of who we are, we do not talk

about our curriculum, how many awards, how many

conferences, but it is about this, and it

is not about starting by simply showing great

photos, but who we are, how we live

every day and how we live the passion

for photography.

This video will always be both hosted on

our website and we receive it from all

couples.

It is the first slide or the first

video they will see, who we are, that

has to be fundamental.

In the past they saw a video in

which it was a kind of slide show

in which there was a voice in off,

rather cold, and with the music and everything

was over.

You see that we are going to go

around it completely and what we are going

to show is that.

Well, if you have followed us since every

day we have been publishing a video, we

wanted to divide this video into four different

chapters in which these chapters were going to

be published a different day at the same

time, to create a greater expectation, to create

a greater engagement and above all to show

our most personal side.

One of the things I told Erika as

soon as the year began was that in

addition to taking good photos, which we already

assumed, was to show our most personal side.

Until now, what we had always shown was

always our photos and we had not really

shown ourselves neither with stories, nor with personal

videos, nor with anything.

It's not because we didn't want to, it's

because we were just ashamed, it's true, that

is, we were in a way not afraid,

but a little insecure to expose ourselves, to

present ourselves, to show ourselves and we had

always run away from that and what I

told Erika it's over, we can't always be

hiding and always show photos, photos and photos,

but I want to show who Erika is,

who Victor is, what we do, how we

live photography, how our life is, how our

day-to-day is, how we create a

bond between people and then for us.

And to finish, as I had told you,

we are giving a wash of face to

our whole image.

It is true that this video is the

main element of change, or one of the

main ones, but there will be many more,

as I have told you, from the web,

such as Instagram and a little bit of

Facebook too, but I simply tell you that

if I can give you a piece of

advice, is that in times of crisis the

last thing we have to do is simply

protect ourselves or hide well so that all

this happens and say well, when all this

happens we go out, no, we really have

to move our asses, be restless people, well,

the creative work or the figure as photographers,

no longer as wedding photographers, but as photographers

should not be stopped by a crisis like

this, but you have to move your ass,

you have to move forward, you have to

evolve, you have to create things and you

have to keep working to the maximum, that

is, what is approaching is a very severe

crisis, but of all crises you have to

take advantage, guys, that's all, see

you very soon, I hope you liked everything

and to work.
