I tried to push out creativity last week and it ended up sending me on a downward spiral. I'm sure I'll have writer's block again, but in this video I talk about what helped me back up.

    Man you are so good with the editing and transitions. I aspire to get to this. Do you ever use a gimbal? Or is this all hand held?

    All handheld baby! And thank you. MOST of it isn't slowed down footage for smoothness. But the GH5 helps out a lot with that haha.

    Procrastination and writer’s block are similar in that it’s really a feeling. This is what I do when I have writer’s block. I would just start writing something bad. Don’t let your hands off the keyboard or your pen off the paper. Just write. Then you will have something to work off on. If you really can’t think of something to write. Read a book. Watch a video. Something would eventually inspire you.

    excellent advice, Kelly! I found that to be helpful when getting through the writers block I had. I've written a couple things now since that block and now I'm feeling a little better :D

    Writers block? In order to have that I'd actually have to write. I suck at writing and an way better at reactionary filming.
