Shooting and editing videos is the future - heck it's the present. As it stands I've been a freelance writer for quite a while now. I've interviewed video game developers about the excruciating process of making a game for three or more years; about the prospects of Virtual Reality; about the challenge of transitioning from writing about games to actually making them; and much more. I've talked to artists and painters - one of the more memorable ones is talking to Lisa Gizara, a renowned Hollywood painter that had her work featured on Mad Men. I've written a ton of news stories, op-eds, previews, and reviews.
But at the end of the day I can't help but feel a bit handicapped. Video and audio is such a sizable weak point for me that it makes me feel a bit unfulfilled. I want to know how writing can translation into video, and how both can complement each other. I want to get into uploading YouTube videos, and having a presence in such a large media platform. And finally, I want to be a journalist that knows how to film stuff. The road seems equally exciting and tumultuous, and I hope it has a fruitful ending for me.
