Media is around us no matter where we go and whether we really see it or not. Not all of it is bad, people just trying to make a decent living to entertain the world to make you feel better when you're not feeling your best; The ability to be in a bad state of mind and then put on show, movie or song and it brings you out into seeing the world from a better perspective. That's what I inspire to do, trying to evoke emotion instead of making something 'only' for fame or fortune.
What gets me now of days is the amount of people who are getting famous and rich by being infamous. People creating what some would call art, others would call garbage and putting it out there only to be passed around to others by mentioning just how bad it really is; With the Internet becoming so popular, people are getting recognition way easier, everybody is trying to get noticed somehow now of days, you just need to be cautious who you give attention too.
It just really annoys me when someone actually tries to create art and doesn't get recognition, while someone makes crap they know is crap, only making it because they know its something that might put some cash in their pockets.
I like people who actually have something to say; Musicians who perfect their craft in order to create a mood, Television shows that get you so into what they're showing you that when its over you cant wait for the next one, Films that captivate you with its stories, characters and other imaginative things that could never exsist in real life. Out of all those, each and everyone of them has some sort of hidden message laid out for audiences to see and/or hear that can make you feel differently about something and maybe even give you a much needed push to be inspired so you too can help others any way you can imagine.
The point Im getting at is for those who dont have anything to say with their art, how does the world react or respond to it? Since the entertainment industry is making money right now, companies are trying to get their hands on any product they can, aka people, with some form of talent; Although in their blind persuit of money they didn't even notice that their product is crap, they dont notice because their eyes are on their bank accounts.
First off, doing something just to get paid is not a good reason for doing something, either do something because your passionate about it or get out of the way and let those who actually want to help step up to the mic.
Second thing, Stop paying for garbage! If you keep spending on something bad that doesn't deserve to be out there then more of that bad thing is just going to keep coming back.
Final note, Just because it worked once doesn't mean it will the next hundred. I hate seeing something I liked get reused and recycled over and over again with nothing new coming from it, no originality or thought, just the exact same thing you saw before with a different name on it.
I hope you enjoyed this rant, if you have any questions just ask, I'd be happy to answer them.
Also, coming soon, I plan to offer my services as a freelancer for Photography, Videography, Writter, and Editor. I plan to get some ideas together for fun experiences of jokes, gags, short sketches, or whatever you want me to do for you, but of course not for free.
Stay tuned for more next time.
