    What are your film spots? Why those places over anywhere else?

    Me, I have 2 main ones.
    Room, carpeted floor and all my damas are there anyways.
    Second is the indoor patio. Bust out the foam floor mats to cushion any drops (though many of my drops always land just outside of the mats) and bring the ipad to play some jams while filming.

    Other good places is our outdoor 'studio' and just the backyard.

    Local park. In a quiet neighborhood so typically nobody’s there, I can invite friends if I want.

    School library, school campus in general, and maybe in my room because all of them have this certain feel that makes me feel comfortable when I play. It’s pretty relaxing TBH.

    Mostly my room, but whenever I want to shoot something serious for an edit, can't go wrong with college campus.

    Mostly I play on the basketball field in my housing estate, because the ground is made of the soft, orange ground (idk how it is in english) and it is the best because kendama doesn't fall on the hard ground, and doesn't fall on the dirty ground. That's where I learn infinity swirl :p second spot is the kitchen at my home, because there is good light and it is at my home :p

    i like to cruise around with my mountainbike and find good spots, preferably somewhere quiet in nature. Otherwise just at home in the garden or living room when it's dark. Never made an edit so far, but I feel like filming helps me to push myself a bit more. And of course it's always nice to have some cool tricks on video: )

    Well back in college corridors is my usual jam spot, if not, i got to the grass parts of our quadrangle...

    Now i jam in a park few miles from our house. I used to love it cause they got areas that got rubber mats. Now, it's concrete. I kinda feel bummed but good thing there is still grass in there...

    That place at BGC was nice and had rubberized tiles, just not a lot of shade.

    The park across the street before the tree trimmers shaved off all the branches I would use as a tripod holders. Now I have to figure something out.

    My screened in porch where the lighting is perfect. The natural light is just right for filming and there are lights that I turn on if I’m seshing after dark. There are no bugs but it’s just like being outside and the floor is a soft kind of wood so I can drop my damas on it. Plus the color of it and my furniture out there matches my Rez setup.

    In the morning, My backyard is perfect. In the evening, it is hard to get good lighting though.
