Getting ValueError when trying to get video (blob) object's metadata from GCS bucket

When running this python script

storage_client = storage.Client()
bucket = storage_client.bucket('bucket_name')
blob1 = bucket.get_blob(blob)
print(blob1.name)

getting the following error:

ValueError: <Blob: bucket-name, /videos/batch1TestingVideo1/video1.mp4, 1600346932097827> 
could not be converted to unicode

All objects stored in the bucket are video files.

How to get metadata of stored video files in the bucket.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys I figured out the problem

storage_client = storage.Client()
bucket = storage_client.bucket('bucket_name')
blob1 = bucket.get_blob(blob.name)
print(blob1.name)

instead of blob object, I should have passed blob.name to get metadata of that object
