Setting Goals Can Change Your Life…
Do you write down your goals? I didn't used to. But I started a few years ago and it's changed my life in many ways.
It seems like such a mundane thing to do, but there is something about confirming your goals and holding yourself accountable by just writing them down and saying them out loud. It's almost like making them official in that simple way makes you not want to let yourself down.
I like to set mine each year on my Birthday and in this video I do just that.

Not knowing where to start or what to focus on with your channel can be frustrating and discouraging, so I think it's important to simplify things as much as possible. In this video I cover the 2 ways to start thinking of all of your content to make sure you have some direction and purpose with the videos you create. This was fun and chaotic to make since it was filmed in pieces over a few week...
3 Reasons you NEED to start Creating in your Life
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.Месяц назад
I didn't start creating things in my life until I was 30 years old. I always felt creative and did well in situations where I needed to be creative, but I wasn't pursuing anything in the arts in my life. So I always felt like something was missing. In this video I reflect on how finding art and filmmaking has completely changed my life and 3 reasons you should do the same. My Equipment 🎥 My Mai...
Tiny Art Studio Tour
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.2 месяца назад
Building an at home art and content studio requires some creativity and compromise since...most of us don't have a ton of available space to use. I started in my bedroom and got tired of getting paint everywhere, knocking over supplies, and jamming my toe into my easel when I woke up. I needed a change at that change was only about 30 ft away..in my backyard. In this video I'll talk about my sh...
Becoming an Artist at 30 Years Old
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.2 месяца назад
Let me start by saying..30 is not old or too late to take on new skills and hobbies by any means. This video is about how I never imagined I'd become an artist and how life can take you so many different routes to find the things you love. I was going through some old boxes and found book, artwork, etc I'd written and old school projects where I mentioned what I wanted to be when I grew up. Spo...

When you first get started on RUclips you'll find that things feel....different compared to any other social media platforms you've created on before. In this video I dive into why it feels different and also why it's actually a good thing for you as a creator. I got alot of comments in a previous post about those who have started their channel and feel a bit discouraged or those on the fence a...

LOL, dude are you spying on me( typical chinese joke)?This is exactly what is happening to me? I just got started by posting 2 videos. few views, no comments, but I will persist😁
I’m so glad I found this video. It’s definitely got me thinking to put more work into RUclips. Thanks 👍🏿
9:21 - THIS! When I uploaded content on RUclips between 2014-2019... it came from the wrong place. I tried to position myself as an expert and, in turn, put too much pressure on myself. Your authentic approach is WAY more natural, and also helps in creating your own niche. P. S. ngl, this video alone inspired me to go back and create content again (turned 30 last year too and have got more perspective/skills now). Educate, then entertain. Keep doing your thing!
Hey Darren, your authentic content has inspired me to finally go back into video shooting & editing For that, I'm planning to switch to Apple MacBook Pro (still on Windows; constant crashes) Which MacBook do you currently use to edit your videos
Greatly appreciated! Amazing video
RUclips is the best Platform for actual creators. Not to create for gratification but to really create because you want to create. There is a standard you need to meet before you can be called a RUclips Creator. RUclips rewards you if you create good content once your Channel becomes monetized. No other platform comes close to this platform.
You’re right! Getting on logic Pro and working on music will never get as much attention as kicking back and scrolling on RUclips. Sad but true. Love you channel!
The algorithm gods have blessed me today. This is the video I needed to see right now. Awesome Content.
Re flying: Boeing and the doors flying off, lower safety standards, and vax compromised pilots (they lowered the standards on health to circumvent this as well)... When I fly it's more of a faith experience now, definitely talking with source. 😅
Definitely lol! Just started my journey on here with my art and been taking notes from you man. So thank you for the pointers & motivation
Glad to hear it, bro! Keep going!
Great video and your work is INCREDIBLE! Thanks for the behind the scenes insight into your story of making it as an artist. Really good / interesting content.
Your video is very well thought out and very helpful for beginners so I'm going to go back and re-watch it and take notes. Thanks for doing excellent work🎉 🎉🎉
Anyone ever tell you that you look like Messi?
So true. While still at University I had a couple of pieces I wanted to enter into the juried student exhibit. It was a flat fee for up to 3 entries. So I took off the sterling, copper, and plexiglass brooch I was wearing, wiped fingerprints off on my shirt and entered it too. Don't you know the brooch was the only piece accepted. Not only that, it was one of 4 pieces in the show written up in detail in the local newspaper by their art critic. Even a photo. We just have to do the work. I gave up trying to figure people out years ago.
Lol damn, that sounds about right!
Incredible. Loving the channel too!
It's better if you imagine the drink as chocolate milk with ice
Nice video subscribed
Very good point. On RUclips, it’s all about creating content for your audience, not for yourself. This is my fourth channel and it’s finally making sense…
Absolutely. Create something that fills a need for your audience. Same thing in digital publishing.
Yessir . Your work is amaizing.Thank You
Much appreciated!
The stick with the leaves still attached is too funny. lol
Happy Belated Birthday
Thank you!
It’s so helpful to see this and other encouraging videos with insights and helpful hints…thank you!! I’ve just re-started my art & nature channel and am tiptoeing out of my comfort zone…here we go! Cheers to being brave!
Thank you. I needed this reminder
Just keep creating 🤝
@@DarrenNaylor 🤝🤝
So true man. For content creation also. My most viewed video took less than 5 min to make. The ones I’ve spent hours on do awful. What’s up with that
It’s just part of creating, unfortunately 😂
Bro...I gotta tell you something... and I'm not going to lie... from one man to another... If I could summarise in thought how I feel about this channel... You'd probably think twice before posting another one.... Let alone STOP posting altogether..... But I just wanted to say.... From the bottom of my heart..... No homo..... YOUR VIDEOS.... ARE A GEM!!!! 🤝
I love seeing how this is all coming together!! Its so beautiful
Just SUBBED great content, great vibez, great information thank you
I'm so jealous of the artist eye you have. That black really made it POP!
Great video. Back in my day, I used to use the overhead projector. I had to convince my art teacher that I knew what I was doing. By the end of the semester my teacher had procured 3 projectors and we were transferring images with lighting speed. Once they saw me do a huge drawing in very little time on the chalk board they were hooked. 😎
Dude this a high quality video! Educational and Entertaining, filled both the E's. Slept on my dude.
I personally think that creating an "Intro Video" is a terrible idea, but mostly for the content creator themselves. Those dang intro videos can have you hung up for months, ideating, thinking, perfecting constantly, instead of making actual content & putting in the reps of producing. They distract you unless & until you can get over your Perfectionism which can takes months, or even years to get over.
But..how is one going to make actual content and put in reps making videos if they can't even make an intro video? The whole point is it should be a quick, talking head video about them. Nothing fancy. That way people get the pressure of a first video out of the way so they can start creating other videos and making them incrementally better each time so I think you've got it backwards.
@@DarrenNaylor Yea, I get that. Maybe it was just my experience but I have definitely heard other people talk about the same issue. I think the complaint mostly comes from "niche hoppers" (or Multi-potentials) who can't decide on WHAT to make their channel about so they keep working on the "Intro" video for 1 idea, then switch to a different idea & start all over with a new "Intro" video. All while never actually hitting "publish." Round and round it goes. At least, that's been my experience. Thanks for responding! Your videos are quite beautiful.
That's the beauty of a quick, basic intro video. It can always be easily updated if your niche changes :)
👍😍👏👍 hopefully to finish mine that I put aside for 2 yrs. now…😊
2 years!? Haha, you gotta get that out and finish it!
@@DarrenNaylor I’ll make time to finish it before summer ends.🤞I’m not very good at drawing, which is why most of my paintings are abstract. I need to finish painting Audrey Hepburn’s eyes. I asked my daughter to draw them for me because I’ve erased my attempts so many times, unsatisfied with the shape I’ve drawn.😊
@@DarrenNaylor Your painting resembles Angelina Jolie.
Great contrast from the shirt
I agree! I love the two together.
Epic.
🙏🏻
Amazing work man
Thanks bro!
Thank you for this video we really inspired me i'm about to start creating tech videos. I put so much money into buying techh n learning
Well done 👏
I appreciate it!
Great video mate. Thank you. What mic do you use?
Thanks, bro! I use the Sennheiser AVX System with the MKE2 wireless lav. It's linked in the description. It's been great so far but I may be comparing it with another soon. I'll post a vid about it 🤝
happy late birthday, and happy early "well done" cuz it's gonna happen for you this year! 🎉 (so long as 1. you're for real about getting better and 2. your title / thumbnails correlate more with the first 15 seconds of your video...100k subs easy). betting on u from the sidelines 🙌
I appreciate it!! Both on the bday greeting and input 🤝
Happy Belated Birthday! 🎉 So glad I found your channel! Writing things down = spelling things out = Casting 🎣 Spells! 😄 but seriously, it works like magic! Best of luck to you and may your Birthday Wish come true! 🎉
Haha I appreciate it!
Hi! Great video! Thank you for the advice! I'm just doing it for fun & to learn new stuff and if anyone happens to like it, that's awesome! (Haven't told any family or friends about starting a channel, except my hubby). Thanks again!😊
2nd video of your’s I’ve watched. Decided to give you a sub. I drive a truck, I’m away from my family and been brainstorming ideas. Anyways, I’ll watch more of your videos and if you happen to take an interest in my situation let me know. Also, just make coffee sipping videos and they will run to your channel. Lol😅
This is a Phenomenal fusion of education and entertainment
Thanks for sharing appreciate the video love the amateur hour name dig ur style keep up the great work
RUclips has been something I’ve wanted to do for over 10 years now. Since I was young, I felt it deep down. Last week I felt the urge to pull the trigger. Boom first video up and 10 subs later, feeling good. Can’t wait for the coming months, it feels right. Being creative and sharing it is what I want! Thanks to those who support us on this journey.
Education and entertainment. Great video.
Does the camera get wet when you shot? How weather sealed is it?
I don't really shoot in any bad weather but the camera is weather sealed it says.
This must’ve been before you were on SWAT? I’m not crazy right?
I'm trying to go back and figure that out but I believe I did record that before I did SWAT :)

It’s never too late to do anything in life. The only time it’s late to do something is when you stop breathing. I don’t understand this trend on RUclips right now. It’s too late to start this. I’m in my 40s. It’s too late to start this I’m in my 50s. Just f-ing start whatever you want!
