Thoughts on Making Videos

I'm getting way more comfortable making videos these days

Except sometimes it's just really mentally draining XD when the inspiration well runs dry I can end up stuck for ages

Whenever I go dig through other people's videos for reference, most of the time it's just — swing through the highlight parts real quick and cut straight to the main content

But personally I always want to build something that feels like it truly belongs to that specific V — something that leaves a lasting impression on people (?)

Honestly I get kind of nervous while I'm working on it too, worried everyone's gonna think it's weird, since not that many people seem to approach it this way (maybe I just haven't seen enough)

I get scared that if I add too much of my own stuff, there'll be pushback, or that it'll just turn out looking straight-up ugly XD

So every time I send a video to the boss for review my heart is going absolutely wild

A thousand different ways it could get rejected flash through my head, haha

But I'm genuinely happy it keeps getting the green light every time XD

Then today while organizing my files I realized just how many gigs all these videos have eaten up on my hard drive Legit scared me — I was like, there's nothing here, how did over 100GB just vanish?? Also gonna take this chance to tell anyone using Premiere Pro: back up and save your projects regularly! Losing a video or having a file get corrupted will genuinely make you want to cry <<< yeah, I literally just had a file corrupt on me today, but thank god I had a backup. Thank goodness

Side note, I was totally planning to finish that spicy piece before midnight and post it, but yeah, didn't quite make it lol

Here, have a little bee — I ended up loving this bee way more than expected once it was done
