With videos, I find I'm better off if I'm playing a role inside of it. The more you do it, the more you understand it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you are trying to express things with metaphors and much more subtlety, that's when you are doing yourself a disservice by making a video.
I think videos are really hard. I'm yet to be happy with a video. It's very weird watching yourself on camera, which I guess I'm going to have to get used to. I love the thought of being in them, but it's one thing to say that and another to actually do it.
I think with every part you do, you become a better actor. I've learned from my experiences on that.
I find that you learn from others. It's very much about watching TV and watching movies for me and grasping that way and watching other people act.
Maybe when I stop making movies, I'll understand my work better.
Honestly, when you're making a movie, you never say, 'Oh, this one's going to suck and go straight to video.' When you're in it, you think you're doing the best work you can do. You're surrounded by people who are working hard. Everybody's hopeful.
YouTube has always been a diary for me. I'm here to share what I do, share my life, and if people want to watch, more power to them. But regardless of my intention, if people are looking at what I do and am treating it like I'm a role model, it doesn't matter whether or not I want to be.
The downside of videos is that it will put my vision in front of other people, so they might not get the chance to create their own.
When I do videos, it's just myself.
I prefer to be in a video than to play with it.
