    The photo at 9:07… I looked at it for like 5 minutes straight, I kid you not. Absolutely amazing. Would love to know what filmstock that was. Do you remember by any chance? The skin tones could lead me to believe it’s Portra but the shadows don’t have a hint of teal, so that can’t be it…

    “Creativity isn’t just you thinking of ideas from nothing but it’s rather taking sources of inspiration and smashing them all together to create your own creative voice”

    “Lean in to what makes you different”

    Thank you for the inspiration and guidance! This information is literal gold ✨

    I’ve been looking into getting my son a mic for talking in his videos and also thru talking to friend thru games one that’s free standing …… I looked at your linked above and WOW $400 ( well $399) I’m a rounder upper 😉😜 holy guacamole 🥑 why so expensive? I’m sure quality but what else? Can you recommend a cheaper mic for a 10 going on 30 year old who into everything electronic. He loves fixing and building things also. Thank god or else since my husbands passings things would stay broke around my house if I did have my lil buddy my lil man Mike n Ike😜 love him🥰

    What a rebel! 💁‍♀️ I subscribed a minute in, your “narcissistic” into worked 👨‍🍼 5 kids in I’ve learned how to dodge toddler head butts LOL 😝 my husband and wonderful father to my 5 kids passed away 2 years I miss him like crazy I miss him with every breath!!ah oh lord the pain. But anytime I see a dad doing his best for himself and child and family I like to recognize that. Keep up the good work! (And good job leaving closed classroom teaching 👨‍🏫 YOU REBEL!😉 😂 )kids need to be free … free and wild! Can you tell I’m a homeschooling/relaxed/unschooly mom. I’d love to get awesome pictures of my kids and me . That the one regret I have is néver getting a picture of me, my husband and all 5 our children…our youngest was only a little over 4 months when he unexpectedly died.

    It seems like there are many echoes and refrains in my life calling me to write stuff down ahead of time to process to make myself more present. I follow a lot of creative inspiration such as Sam Hurd, Ryan Brenizer, and Taylor Jackson. Lots of creative inspiration but really talking about visualizing ahead of time I’ve definitely heard before but this video offered a concrete methodology to follow. I think you just revolutionized my creative work

    I've been feeling so down lately, But you just gave me the push I needed I got into photography a long time ago but I couldn't do much at the time because of health issues, I'm thinking I should do youtube on the side.

    Music toooo loud.

    @rhett1734

    Just a little tip to improve your videos further: your audio is way louder than any other channel that I watched today 🙂 might be worth using normalisation on your audio if you're not already doing that 🙂

    11 min and 46 seconds well spent there. 😃 – Music really helps me to ‘zone out’ of all the craziness and focus on creativity, though I’m conscious of the mood. Sometimes Slayer and Bodycount are not helpful – I have too much energy as it is! 🤣

    So pumped bro. Loved this video bro those shots were epic as per usual. Gotta watch those baby claws. They happen so fast you don’t know what hit you. I was gonna roast you about your iMac taking up half the screen but you told me not to so I’ll do what my YouTube dad says and not roast you😂😂😂. Love you!!
