Great that you found yours and continue with the flow! I totally agree with you, the sense of creativity should always stay nearby. Makes for a life with the chance of experimentation for fun and the excitement!
I’d say I found my creative side around 3 years ago, also when I started making YouTube videos. Eventually I’ve been raising my expectations to direct short-films and I really dig it! No matter the difficulty you should always welcome creativity with open arms! It will help you 🙂

This is a story that really shouldn’t be taken for granted…
Despite all the hardships the crew went through they still managed to finish the film, they should really be proud of themselves!
Her speech was also beautiful 🙂

An inspiring presentation. The fluent delivery was matched by the lyrical content, with references ranging from Kahlil Gibran and Maya Angelou. Her message gives hope to all who live in conflict zones, where life is uncertain and destruction an everyday events. A story of resilience in which the film becomes a vehicle for catharsis. A wonderful way to start the day. Thank you.
