Your videos always speak to a part of me that I feel is so difficult to express on my own. So many people have told me I should paint or draw for money and things like that but that's never been me. I want to make my art at my own pace and for myself, not be subjected to taxing rat race of selling or making just for others. I want to write and I want people to see me as a writer and connect to my work, I don't want to just crank out a book full of all the viral clichés that says nothing and is at the end of the day forgotten. I want the things I do to matter.
1000000%.. and I think there's no right or wrong way to do it, as long as we are satisfied with the way we regard our work. i sincerely believe it is so much more interesting (and rewarding to me) to find a raw, authentic voice that is so unique in the sea of over-optimisation. keep creating!!
you want to have meaning, community, and legacy, not just to be a fidget spinner or a passing trend. I completely understand that.
exactly ❤❤❤
“Build a solid home instead of a stage” is so real deeply connected with this video thank you 💕 also gorgeous work wowow
The best niche you can be is yourself let’s not forget 👍
@@Chris-qy2bh this is so true :”) thank you for allowing me to be!
the amount of effort that went into these 6 minutes :") so so gorgeous, from the cinematography to the storytelling 🎈
thank youuuu cas :")))))
I didn't realise but I too started to play the algorithm game a while back with the reels I was posting, took me like 6 months to realise it would never fulfil me as I wasn't making what I was actually passionate about. Glad to know I'm not the only person who has really struggled with this journey. Whilst my youtube videos dont get as many views I am so so much more happy with what I'm making these days.
T_T I feel you so hard! I hope one day you get to reach the right audience who appreciates the work that you are excited to make as well!
this is so inspiring, both in the message and the way u present it. I feel the same way sometimes, pulled between feeding the bottomless faceless internet pit, and making what I feel is authentic. thank u for this vid and showing what's possible when u combine the pursuit of mastery of the self & mastery of the craft, it was amazing to experience
i don't remember the last time i watched a video with such admiration, damn, your production value is so out of this world, the scenes!! the color grade!! the camera movement!! everything is just so on point. i am an aspiring cinematographer and seeing such amazing working is truly inspiring, keep it up! hopefully one day i'll get there too :)
My gosh! This is so good! 😮💨 This is why I wanted to get your mind. Beautifully done, See Min! Love it so much! The cinematography and the shots, and the storytelling! ❤️ *chef’s kiss*
Incredible, I wish your art would show up in more people's explore pages so they could appreciate you as an artist and not just for your viral moments!
aw thank you so much.. that is honestly such a sweet comment :") at the end of the day if I get to reach the right audience, im happy enough hehe
In an ideal world, it’ll be great to be recognised, be viral, for being yourself 😌🙏🏻 puzzle shot at the end is the winning shot laa
so that's the red heart balloon i saw :>>> hahah you own your narrative queen 👑 thank you for being an inspiration
omg WAIT YOU SAW THE BALLOON WE LET GO OF? HAHAHHA
i feel like you always know what to say exactly when i need to hear it. i've been having these feelings and thoughts lately also. thank you for sharing your stories through such a beautiful and captivating medium
:"))) im so honoured to be able to resonate with you thru this space! thank you so so much for this sweet comment, and for enjoying the stuff I enjoy putting out. it means so much!!
no cuz i NEEDED THIS. so relatable See Min :')
beautifully filmed and edited. reminds me a lot of Life of Riza channel. All the best in your creator career Min. Glad you chose to create for yourself and us the audience, instead of the algorithm
aw thank you so much Kenny for your kind words! feel free to always let me know what you want to see more of :-)
@@smxne just keep cooking Min. We are learning lots from your work. Not just film making but about life. In short, just be yourself.
@@KennyEatsWorld this is the best 🥺😭 thank you so much for that ❣️❣️
Yaaaay ! Our queen is back ! And she is still doing an amazing job 🎉❤

I love the cinematic shots and storytelling of this video 😭❤️ it’s also the first time I’ve seen more of your thoughts and personality thru this long form content and it’s like I’m getting a clearer glimpse of who you are behind the work that you do, which is so precious! Keep it up Min!!!! 🤎🤎🤎
The visuals and story telling was incredible. It felt like you had a whole camera crew helping you film this. Great video! Inspiring asf
Life changing. i have so much to say. out of words. still processing. hit the nuance i was looking for in me. I feel less alone coz of this
🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 i’m so glad you do 🩷
Love the video! Thanks for sharing!
PS: Nice shoutout to Casual Poet Library! 😁
hahahaha thank you weichong! it's one of the best places on earthhhh!!!🥺
This video is unbeliavably beautiful. From the storytellng to the cinematography, everything is just WOW. I can't even begin to imagine all the work you put into this video. I know you pour your heart and soul into the creative process so thanks so much for sharing this with us.
This is truly I-N-S-A-N-E !!! I love everything yout it, your use of colours, light, framing and sound is sooooo BRILLIANT!! Thanks so much for this great inspiration and message! Your work motivates so much!! Greets from Berlin :) ☀☀👋👋
*about it
Your work is outstanding. This video is such a masterpiece as much on cinematography than substance. Please follow your talent, not the algorithm, it has no taste for what speaks to our hearts.
I totally relate! This video speaks to so much of what I’ve been feeling inside. Thank you for this, you are so incredible at what you do!
all my love, Alex! im so glad we are not alone in feeling this way (judging from the comment section heh). let's never stop creating
This is so well made, nice job
thank you so much! we had so much fun making this hehe
And also, for what is worth, I think you’re so amazing (everything I know about you so far) and I can’t wait to learn more about you, you amazing beautiful human!
I feel less alone after watching this video! You touched and inspired a part in my heart. Thank you!
Your work always resonates with me. I’ve found myself in a similar predicament- I know exactly how to go viral, but I don’t think I want to. I’ve always been perfectly happy if I get one or two interactions, as long as they’re genuine. Plus, genuine reactions are always the most kind. A lot of people have been telling me that my audience have a low attention span (I should cater to under 18 basically) but I really, really don’t want to. I prefer it this way. I like genuine, I prefer people find me like a diamond in the rough. We are not chemical dispensers
I actually got emotional watching this. Thanks girlie. This made me think about a lot!
The dopamine rush is real D: felt this with tiktok too. Love your music choices 🙌
As a newtuber, I really love this platform. Being authentic really pushes me to find who I really am and connecting to the people appreciate me&my work is one of the best feelings I've experienced. F the algorithm, putting the work you're proud of is the most important thing. Appreciate your work, really can relate to your point of view.
Love the storytelling, love the visuals, love your hair. Also weirdly, my next video I am working on also starts in a phone box - maybe we were calling each other girl!!! Say hi if you are ever in London :) can't wait for more of your videos!
I’m so glad this video found me today. What a masterpiece, such an inspiring piece of art. Thank you❤️
Your videos are sooo beautiful!1 Thank you for putting so much effort into them.
This what happens when you open the Pandora Box and See what it takes and go "meh"😂😅

6:24 amazing shot!
This moved my heart so much 🥹😩 you are so inspiring!!!
at the end of the day we are just baddies who are suckers for connection and impact :")) hahah thank you so much Baer!
This video is so inspiring (and cinematic ♥). It's so true... you have to be yourself. On my previous channel (not this one) I was very shy and didn't feel confident being just me so I did an easy content ( reactions) it had lots of views and subscribers and it did gave me some experience and helped me built a little bit of confidence but I wish I just started with vlogs back then. Eventually I gave up on that channel because everyone was there for the artist not me or my sister (obviously). I hope it will be good this time, I really wish to find a community of kind people because youtube has been my dream since like 2013 so I can't give up now...
awww omg 😭😭 i hope you start now!!!! 🤍🤍 it is truly so scary but you deserve to do this for yourself 💖 if not the dream or the yearning wont stay inside you for so long too..
Storytelling is incredible
love everthing for this video love the content love the idea love the angle of the camera 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
aw thank you so much Alex!
dammnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn , just wooooooooowwww 😍😍😍
Welcome to the new era of creativity! Not ready to make it yet but you would definitely be a part of my Cinematic Universe if I'd had a chance to meet you some day.
this made my morning! 🖤

I'm on my way to becoming a Creator and I saw this video. This brings me more motivation to do it. I hope someday I can come to there to meet you, some same energy person. Wish you luck from Vietnam.
So happy this reached me

1 minute into this video - subbed.
that’s so sweet to hear 🥹 so happy youre here Arnold!
You're a gift
and you are a gift to me too :")
whos your biggest inspiration when it comes to directing?
what a great question! :") i feel like I am inspired more by how certain films were written than by directors at this current season of my life, also because im directing myself most of the time instead of working with actors! some films that have been inspiring me a lot: Poor Things, Wonderland (2023), Scrapper (2023), EEAAO, The Joker
@@smxne thats awesome to hear! some of those are some of my favorites also!
@@The_Gake feel free to drop your film reccs 😛😛
@@smxne i would say definitely past lives, but also my letterboxd is userwake which has so many 5 star movies on there haha
