STOP WAITING, START YOUR CONTENT CREATION JOURNEY TODAY...
Can I be honest with you? If you are waiting to get everything before you get started, you can never start anything.
Recently, a friend came to my room and she was wondering the place I use in shooting my videos (hehehe). She couldn't find it.
Since I can't afford a professional studio for now, I turn my room into a mini-studio; I have to shift couple of things before shooting my video if I am using indoor.
Likewise the phone I use (NOT even an iphone).
However, I have learnt the magic of creating a stunning video via colour grading, camera angles and the techniques of shooting a good video.
Like Steve Harris will always say, "It is not what you don't have that is limiting you; it is what you have but you don't use."
I'll add by saying, "...what you have but you don't know how to use."
Content creation is a serious hard work because you have to be constantly thinking, documenting down ideas, stories, plans, buying gadgets, clothes, visiting locations, etc....
Last week thursday, I met a lady who happens to be dance content Creator. I checked her TikTok followers and it is almost fifty thousand (50,000). I was amazed.
We got into more conversations and I realized she has spent the last one month in different hotels just simply because she wanna shoot her videos using a quality location.
Then again, I was very impressed; going all her way just to create dance content. That really inspired me.
Back to me message, JUST START with what you have. It can be your small android phone, your room, your laptop, two friends, few clothes, little knowledge of presentation, etc.... just start with what you have.
Don't be limited by what you don't have.
Strength comes as you work; more materials come as you begin to create more content.
The most interesting part is, you get better the more you engage in creating more. Growths actually comes by doing NOT waiting.
We don't measure growth by waiting, we measure growth by moving.
Never allow the way you speak or how you will sound limit you from starting because as you speak, you improve.
I trust you get the message?
