Following is a transcript of the video:
James Trevino: My name is James. I'm from Romania. I'm 24 years old, and
I do this thing called Bookstagram.
It's this community on Instagram for people who obviously love to read.
The first thing I did were these videos: book dominoes.
And I started this angel series, where I had wings made of books,
because I have this weird obsession with angels and supernatural.
I finished law school last year and decided to take a year off. I felt
like I needed a break. It was a bit restrictive with my creativity.
I get about 80% of my books online. I never pick them because of their
color. I don't have enough money to spend on something like that, and I'm
actually blessed enough to have already enough books so that they are pretty
much enough for any project I have in mind. I have about 1,150, something like
that.
Part of them belong to my father and are classics, and I don't
particularly enjoy classics.
I actually never bother organizing them unless I have to take a pic.
Otherwise, no. First of all, I have to come up with an idea, and that is
usually easier said than done.
I have this friend, Elizabeth, who helps me with most of my pics. We
brainstorm together. I take my pics in bulk, about once or twice a month.
Some of them are fandom based, because fandom-based pics do way better.
We usually bring out the books, we put them on the floor, and we do at
first a few pics without me in them to see if they fit all right and all that
stuff, and then finally we take about 100 shots and we hope one of them is
good. And the whole process takes about, I don't know, two to three hours per
pic.
Sometimes you need to add details that are impossible to create with
books.
I had this idea a while back to do the Deathly Hallows symbol from Harry
Potter, and basically it is a big, big triangle, and in the middle of it, there
is basically a vertical line. And I was supposed to be that vertical line, and
I was just too big to fit. That was taken in two parts, like one was me alone,
and the other one was the triangle, and with the editing and everything it took
about six hours total.
My favorite book series is "Harry Potter." It was love at
first sight. I discovered it when I was about 13 or so, and before then, I
actually hated, I hated reading with a burning passion. It was just so bad.
Like, when my parents tried to force me to read books, I would actually end up
throwing them away.
