Smile! You’re Not On Camera

I’ve made a short, high-brow slapstick documentary that asks: why do we always film everything? What happens when we see ourselves as main characters of content, instead of human beings just ‘experiencing things’?

My subject performs a non-existent candid camera show on the streets to find out what it means to experience just for the sake of content.

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda.

As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience.

Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
