PLANNING: If only…
It’s been nearly impossible for me to force myself back into the creative groove, and this, based on what I’m trying to learn, adds about a hundred cargo cars to the engine car of a train heading uphill. Uphill without directions. And like with an aerial map instead of street turns and a big red star.
I thought I knew what I wanted to do and what I needed to learn in software. After watching many, many short film clips, there’s now a kettleful of ideas that go nowhere. The different forms of animation, the different methods of presentation, the simplicity and the intricacy all appeal in some way until I view something entirely different and want to go that way for a while. Excitement builds even as doubts about ability grow. Even the end goal is just a case of self-satisfaction rather than a career since age is most definitely not on my side.
Mass confusion is what I am. Wonder how that would look in video.
