Captivating Slow TV Videography in Finland

Scenes By Sevy is like a window into my travels through beautiful Finland with its 4 perfectly timed seasons.
The idea of filming Finland is heavily influenced by the fact that i am far away from family, but this platform allows us to feel closer.

My goal is to capture the right moment in the right place, it’s something that takes a lot of practice and patience.
To capture as many beautiful historical locations as possible.
Often provided with translatable subtitles that explain the history of the location and/or my means of communication to the viewer.

Finland is a country that is often left out of the big headlines, but it deserves to be represented as well as other ‘popular‘ countries.
Finland has great potential thanks to its beautiful lakes and the abundance of still untouched nature.
It is the home of Santa Claus, Finland is the country with the longest and coldest winters in Europe.

Occasionally i also try to film cinematic walks with music as a guideline, often with euphoric or melancholic melodies.
But most of the time i prefer to use natural sounds as if you were walking in the scenes yourself.

Step inside the scenes, meet you there!

See the FAQ page to see more answers to questions.

Research

Today the internet is full of data about anything and everything.
I do research for each location, which often leads me to multiple databases.
This allows me to form subtitles that you can read in the scenes.
The combination of information and visual is a great way to focus on what you’re watching.

HELLO, nice to meet you.
I hope you’re having a good time.

That‘s me in the photo above, you might be wondering what’s up with the grin? Well, let me tell you, my wishful thinking is to stay behind the scenes and they always say to smile at the camera so i did extra much, it counts extra long until the next selfie, right?

I‘m a late 80s baby so i have all the great stuff of the 90s in my little pockets.
The last generation that grew up before the digital world.
The youngest generation to be part of and embedded in the transition.
Once the world of the internet became more accessible, i knew it would become a big part of my life.
Some 20+ years later and i’m still intrigued by it.
It must have been a matter of time before i picked up my newest hobby: videography.

The two go hand in hand in the world of sharing your life these days.
The only thing i regret is that i didn‘t start sooner, isn’t it always the case?

I didn’t always live in Finland.
In fact, i spent the first 23 years of my life in my country of origin: Belgium .
Not a bad place to be at all, but it must have been something otherworldly that shaped the road as it is today.
Nowadays i live with my partner who is Finnish and we take care of 2 furballs, i added some pictures below if you are interested.

My daily job mainly consist of working with semi-automatic packaging machines for cold vegetables, driving electric pallet stackers, forklift trucks and production.

Thank you for reading.
I hope my videos will help or inspire you in your daily life.
Together we learn, explore and walk in the beautiful land of the Finns.

Further below i’ve added some bits and pieces about me, that is if you are interested for more.

Interests

Hobby activities

  • Creating

    Entertainment content

    When i talk about creating, it usually has to do with computer content.
    The will to create started in 2008 when i applied to study computer science.

  • Walking

    To de-stress

    For those who didn’t know, it’s true, i like walking.
    My favorites are in snowy forests and rainy city streets at night.

  • Filming

    The daily life

    I bought my first camera (a GoPro) in 2021.
    I haven’t looked back since, it’s an ever-changing process with trial and error.
    Finland’s 4 seasons provide great content with winter being the most challenging but also most rewarding.

  • Music

    To the ears

    The first tune i heard was of a Wind-up doll:


    I developed a broad taste for music:
    EDM – Rock – Pop – Hardstyle – Orchestral

  • Movies

    To pause the world

    Movies play a big role in my life.
    Can you guess which are my favorites?
    Hint: Powerful rings – Why is the rum gone – Flux capacitor – Wingardium leviosa – Eye of the tiger

    Anything that makes me laugh, inspire me, think, feel euphoric or emotional and smarter.

Character Traits

To categorize a few

  • Loyal

    However, this only works if both parties share the same trait.

  • Compassionate

    Polite, everyone is racing time as best they can.

  • Responsible

    Respectful, honest and fair.

  • Imaginative

    A curious open mind and playful.

  • Humorous

    Life is easier with a sense of humor.

  • Reserved

    Self-aware, minding my own.

  • Cooperative

    Everybody has a voice that needs to be listened to.

  • Shy

    I tend to stay behind the scenes as much as possible.
    Caused by a combination of anxiety and fear of failure, it’s like carrying an anchor in your head on bad days.

  • Stubborn

    It’s something that comes and goes, just like the tide.

Fun Fact .1

Scene No. 100 has not yet been created.
It is intended as a compilation of unused video material from the year 2021.

Fun Fact .2

Of the 4 seasons in Finland, winter is my favorite.
There is something special about the mystical silence, the darkness, the freezing cold and the snow storms that make for amazing scenery.

Fun Fact .3

Together with my partner (who is native Finnish) we care for 2 furballs that seem to listen to the name Sulo & Onni.
