Welcome to steem, Glad to have you here!
Interesting art work, would you say that you are able to better express yourself now, compared to then (in the video) or do you still feel that your true vision would scare people off of you as a career artist?
Tron! Glad to hear from you, new friend! And in no way is my extreme views expressed in the video characteristic to how I actually feel - it was made as a kind of joke introduction to my college class last year lol But I definitely do have high aspirations in the field of film and photo!
To be honest, Tron, I feel as though everyone's true vision kinda scares people off at first. It's not until it actually becomes a reality that people start to believe in it. That's the way it is with every business or industry however.
Just like you said: a journey of 1000 miles starts with a few well-placed footsteps. Let's walk that road together, my dude!
Looking forward to it! The best thing about this platform, isn't the money (though that is a bonus), but the chance to have meaningful engagement between content creators, and fans.
I have noticed a lot more engagement here, than in even the best of YouTube channels, and that is what excites me the most.
Exactly - there's so much this system is doing for creators and fans. Its encouragement of interaction is the best part - rewarding ordinary people for sharing their artwork, writings and experiences will expand the brand and invite new ideas to the table. It's so simple, yet effective!
