    Making videos for my YouTube channel. I like having random ideas, making the vids then uploading them, but man am I not good at it. My vids are mediocre at best compared to other YouTube channels I watch, but I enjoy the process.

    I really like when I’m doing a funny video, I’m working on editing and think “oh this would be funny here” and add that, and do that over and over until it’s been 20 hours of editing for a 10 minute video and I have to force myself to export it and be done.

      tip, take it or leave it.

      don’t try to emulate what someone else is doing, be creative as you want.

      even Picasso couldn’t paint like Frida, but both were amazing on their own merits.

        Oh yeah for sure, I get inspirations from other channels, but I don’t try to directly rip them off. I don’t have that kind of charm and my videos aren’t all a single genre, they’re kinda all over the place.
