Get To Know Them
Growing up, I never felt like I fit in. Socially and academically. I was never the best at getting good grades in school. I always felt like I was trapped in my own brain and couldn't collect my thoughts well. Communication was always a difficult task for me, even when I'll be having a regular conversations with people. It felt like the words were foreign and I end up mixing up my sentences and outright not making any sense. Turns out my brain was just going too fast that my mouth couldn't keep up.
After finding that out, I figured out how to navigate the world. I eventually got into video editing, letting me into the film/photo industry. I started self-teaching myself with youtube to get a grasp on my editing programs for video and photo. In high school, my work started to advance, as I received great advice and skills from my upperclassmen to improve my skills.
In that class as well, I picked up a lot of other skills as well, like, how to work a camera, manage lights, audio, a little bit of acting, script writing, etc. From there I passed the skills I learn to my underclassmen. Now I am starting a film company with one of my underclassmen and friend, Keagen.
Now my journey is only just begun and I can't wait for what life has in store.
Photography Work
In college I learned a lot about photography and at first, I was annoyed with the classes I had to take, but in the end, I really wanted to keep doing it; at least as a hobby or something more.
Here are some of the photos I have taken and I am making a digital journal to go into detail about my work, the steps it took me to get to the final product, and why I decided to choose that particular photo.
You can see that down below! Not most of it will be photography, but I do plan on keeping up with the hobby.
