I admire your narrative style, I could never explain in such clear terms the events that shaped my life like you do, months of scripting notwithstanding. I know that by now this is an ages old video, but looking back I can relate so much with your journey through the dreadful arts college experience.
I love your videos. Turns out it doesn't really matter which brand of art you choose, you can eventually learn to do all the things and make them good, and you're proof of it.
Amazing. Both narration, and drawings.
Well interpretive is your drawings, if you feel like it even skematics can be called interpretive, so yes, you can learn this by yourself and you do not need to pay for it. Technical drawings well are different story, you need to learn to draw as precise as you can and there is more money to be made while there are loads of artists with majors who work as barista or in McDonalds.
My wife taught English literature, (Poems, novels), at a college for a few years for a few years, but there was also English Tech, (Writing instructions, information pamphlets). They had to make the same decision also.
I feel like you made the right decision. I'm glad you choose for yourself, rather than just going with the crowd. Besides, you can always come back to it and try both. I'm trying to make it as a writer, (although this won't be my main job) and I had to decide between poetry and stories. When you love and respect both it's a hard decision. Maybe I understand that just a little bit, although it seems to have been everything for you. The one thing I can say is that you can come back to it. I choose poetry, and I'm happy with my choice, but that doesn't mean I'll stop writing stories. I can see in the end that you did, in fact, do both. You wouldn't have made this video otherwise.
I love hearing what you have to say, in fact, I went to sheridan for a year as well, so hearing your stories is always interesting for me. I'll probably go back to sheridan as a second year sometime soon. I'm studying something other than writing there, something I enjoy, but also can rely on as a stable job. Still wish I could go full on writer, but whatever.
Thanks for sharing, your videos are always something I look forward to.
