Heheheh...nice to see you moving along so swiftly. External validation is a classic problem of youth - I'm impressed to see you figured things out as soon as you did. Making videos out here puts one under once's own microscope more than most realize. Anyway, you're taking some good directions, here, in your thinking. Don't worry about things - relax, do your own thing, and stay open to constructive critiism. Carry on...
@TheMercilessEye I guess I am still within that age range though I actually tend to look deceptively younger than I am; I'm actually 27 at the moment. Just a bit of fun trivia about me there. But yeah, it's an issue I'm working hard to keep in check in everything I do. I am actually working on drawings that I'll be using as cartoon characters in videos where they'll actually express my views by debating with each other. I figured....
@TheNeocatZone Hm. That is very interesting (all of it, of course, but the cartoon character part particularly so.) Have you ever visited DarkMatter2525's channel? He works in Flash, and he's quite good:
watch?v=140g0qmZZ24&feature=feedf
You might want to consider employing Flash animation in your work. Just a thought...
@TheMercilessEye That is a program I have an interest in downloading when I have the opportunity though the 'animation' in my videos may actually be a bit cruder if the word is accurate; my drawings are colored pencil drawings of a range of emotions for each character and in the videos, the animation will consist of going back and forth between still shots of the drawings as I provide the voices. Luckily....
Con't. I've always been talented at voices and cartooning, so it shouldn't be too boring; this is just a way for me to do the videos in the quickest way possible once they start getting posted.
Con't. Doing it that way would make me feel less self-conscious about whether I might come off as some pedantic salesman and allow some degree of detachment that would make critical responses feel less like a personal attack. And I have made some headway behind-the-scenes with this self-validation thing, especially after I caught myself getting too worked up over the recent jezuzfreek777 drama. So - thanks for watching and commenting. :)
Well your last comment in Nick's vid intrigued me... so here I am. And what can I say.. you're awesome dude :) I think we are a little bit alike in some ways. I might stick around for a bit and see what happens.
A very good video :) There is too much information out there that seems to corroberate something, but on further investigation, it only opens us up to the fact that we dont know. Its all part of growing and developing. Just make videos, grow and change with time.
@BespokeGroupUK That's exactly the road I'm going to take from this point forward rather than hope I can figure it all out in one project. Thanks for the comment, Nick. :)
@deepashtray Who the hell marked your comment as spam? People, this is one benign, humorous comment from deepash; please don't abuse the spam button. Anyway, eight of spades. :)
@TheNeocatZone All right. I offer you a challenge. I made a promise to 2bsirius that I would attempt to give her my feeble take on the nature of reality. Are you interested? This more or less commits me to making a video, and I finally have a camcorder.
@deepashtray Well, to look at it one way, I actually got unstuck; I realized the crux of each of my failed video projects was an effort at finding validation of my worldview from others, so now the next video project is gonna be more about just putting ideas out there without looking for anything in return. But I'm still open to watching your video; I'm not too busy with the next project yet.

@Silkspine It's gonna be some cool stuff; I already picked out better background music at Unique Tracks.

@deepashtray Go for it if you want to. What suddenly made you decide to pose it as a challenge to me just now?

@TheNeocatZone You sound like your a bit stuck, and I need a kick in the ass myself.

@TheNeocatZone That's what I'm getting at. The subject will find itself.
