नमस्कार दोस्तों! आज के वीडियो में, हम एक आम समस्या पर गहराई से चर्चा कर रहे हैं जिसका सामना कई रचनात्मक लोग करते हैं: गियर एक्विजिशन सिंड्रोम, या जीएएस। यह नवीनतम कैमरे, लेंस और गैजेट खरीदने की निरंतर इच्छा है, यह सोचकर कि यह हमारे फिल्म निर्माण कौशल को तुरंत बढ़ा देगा। लेकिन क्या सचमुच ऐसा होता है? इस वीडियो में, हम इंडी फिल्म निर्माताओं पर जीएएस के प्रभाव का पता लगाएंगे और इसे दूर करने के लिए व्यक्तिगत अनुभव और समाधान साझा करेंगे। मैं आपके गियर को लगातार अपग्रेड करने के चक्कर में पड़े बिना अपने फिल्म निर्माण कौशल को कैसे बढ़ाया जाए, इसके बारे में भी सुझाव दूंगा।
