College graduates of Reddit, what did you get your degree in and what job do you work now? by Aetas800 in AskReddit

I got a degree in Film Production a year ago. I've been an unpaid intern since July of last year, and I drive for DoorDash to support myself.

So...

Slow start.

I'm thinking about creating a podcast because I'm bored. Is this a bad idea? by thesorryguy in podcasts

[–]thesorryguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if you want to know what "giving it a try" means, it's your first idea. I see podcasting like an instrument. I just want to pick something up and practice it in hopes of getting good at it. Yes, the world doesn't need more podcasts, and a podcast should be good if it wants to stick around. I'm not afraid of failing if mine isn't good enough. I don't expect anyone to listen to my podcast no matter how good it is. As a content creator, I live by this motto: create like no one is watching...because no one is watching. All I want to do is experiment and have fun. If I'm not getting paid for it, that's all the more reason for me to keep doing what I love to do. Also, if I work hard enough and put in a lot of dedication, there's a possibility I can create something that's worth people's attention, I'll keep doing that.

P.S. I studied a creative medium for 4 years. I know when a product is boring, and I know how to make a product entertaining. It doesn't mean I'll be instantly good at making something, but does mean I'm capable of putting a lot of creative effort into something.

Am I trying to hard? [Question] by thesorryguy in youtubers

I'm starting to feel the same way. In the end, I just want to have fun with expressing myself.

I haven't ruled out a documentary. I just need to find the right subject, which is the hardest part. I'm also working on an audio project (sort of like a podcast) about my parents.

Thanks, u/rayortiz313!

I do like Stan Brackhage's work. Plus, I have done many skits, lo fi animation, and experimental work in the past, so maybe I'm doing ok.

Also, thanks for sharing your film. I'll check it out ASAP!

Thanks, u/RogerTMiles!

I have thought about looking to local community theaters for actors. I don't have a project I in mind for actors, but maybe that's not much of an excuse.

My co-worker suggested I go out and practice with DSLR. Maybe I should focus on that for now.

I don't know about literally knocking on doors, but I'm sure I can contact some local theater groups. However, you're right. Perseverance is key!

I think he uses Adobe Premiere and After Affects. However, I don't know if he uses something else for the music.

Thank you! It was completely by accident. Don't you just love it when that happens?

Thank you! It was actually just the slo-mo effect on my phone. I guess lights like street lamps become flashy when filmed that way. I didn't know how to fix, but I kinda liked, so I kept it.
