I think its worth it im 15 so im still figuring out what i want to do its always been my dream to be a KZread animationer but idk how to animation this video is making me realize if i want to be an artist full time i need to practice more with animation, drawing and more so my junior year im definitely taking an art class or maybe this year idk if i want to take another cooking class or not it is fun so idk i have so many things i have thought about doing as a future job for example being an art teacher for elementary school, being a baker, being a KZread animationer, being a graphic novel writer and illustrator for the drawings in the books, owning my own shop and selling stickers and stuff on etsy and its just so hard trying to choose a path to go down so college scares me a bit and im only 15 im not even at the stage of looking for colleges yet you do that when your a junior and still it just freaks me out im just glad to see its okay to make mistakes in life your video helped me see that if i dont like something i can always try something different even tho that might put me in debt for college lones and stuff i hope I'll be able to get through it what im saying is that this video took some of the pick what you want to do for you future for forever fear off my shoulders lol not all of it but at least a bit thank you i cant wait to see more from your channel :D

I kinda cried at the "I chose my major for me" part. I really want to pursue art. I'm not the best artist, my art isn't that good, I'm not good at other drawing techniques, and idk how to make money out of it. I feel like i'm gonna be a disappointment and other people would judge. I usually didn't care about what people thought but being an adult who majored in art, being judged by other adults, is scary for me. But I always remind myself of the love and support I get from my parents that not a lot of other parents would give. They told me that whatever I pursue, they'd help me through the entire thing. Or at least until I get myself stable. They encourage me to travel to another country to get better education and learn more about my passions. They tell me that I should get a job or career that I love. And they're right! I love learning about art. I love improving my art, drawing constantly and looking back at my old art to see how much I progressed! I love drawing anything and everything I can! Lately I haven't had the time to draw, which made me sad. I'm actually applying for a school soon that has an art and design strand to pursue my passion! Sure I don't draw daily like other people. Sure my art isn't seen by many. Sure, my art is garbage fire! But that's why i'm applying to this school and this strand, to make my art better and improve my skills! I don't really care about money or status. Sure it'd be nice to be rich and famous, or at least stable and respected. There are lots of ways I can earn money by doing what I love. If ever, i'll just do another job that I can still enjoy my passion at. I don't care who says that art isn't a good career path or a good future, if the world didn't have art we'd be bland as heck! Art is as important as any other job or course. If it wasn't, it wouldn't be an option! So idc what ANYONE and EVERYONE says! Art is my passion, I'm going to pursue it because it's what makes ME happy, it's what makes me feel successful. ❤

I am the same way. I grew up with the mindset to always please others, and if someone didn’t like me, I was devastated. I would do anything to earn their respect. Then I was confronted by my brother, and he said he almost didn’t know me anymore. Of course, he was referring to the real “me.” I just fell apart after that, because he was totally right, and he had hit the nail on its head. I’m all better now, but my habit still comes back to me every blue moon. But you know what? Growing and going through life is an art in itself. I am also rambling a bit; pardon me. My point is this: don’t let others define you. It’s okay to be a little selfish! As long as you keep it within boundaries of course… be strong and keep practicing if that’s what you’re going to do! I know I am 😁. Thanks for sharing! 👍

If it makes you feel better, I think VERY often about an animation industry I once went to. The speaker was talking from the perspective of being someone who looks at portfolios and offers job interviews. He said that sometimes there are artists who apply and they seem like they're just no good, that they won't make it into the industry. So they get rejected. BUT sometimes that rejected person will then continue practicing and learning, and apply again (to a different project or company, since time has passed). And it's almost impossible to tell it's from the same person from how much they improved, and they get a job. There are also people who start working in the industry in their 30s or 40s. Like, they had a different job and then started learning art, animation, programming, or whatever it was they were interested in.They apply, and get a job. It's possible! Just keep at it!!

Though you also do stuff like Logo design, Typography, posters, etc. Like a lot of majors it can be a roller coaster at times

if you want to learn any 3d skill, its important to understand that its basically opposite in technique when compared to more physical art forms. in painting, drawing, sculpting, and 2d animation, its easy to add more details, but a change of perspective means reworking a lot or all of the work. in 3d, its the opposite. a change of perspective is trivial, and complex perspective isn't even worried about, but details of any kind are tedious to add and often must be entirely changed because of a single problem. 2d skills are still extremely valuable to a 3d artist but the are almost reversed. hope this wasn't too verbose.

I relate except i failed art class with an F. That's not going to stop me for drawing anyways

I just loved watching this and learning your story through finding what you really enjoy. It really inspires me to keep practicing my art to hopefully try out for an arts major when i get to the age for university! :D

the owo is engrained in my soul, i can't be stopped

I loved this video so much! I was going through a big animation block and I've been telling myself that I can't do it. I graduated high school a few months ago and I've felt useless for not doing nothing. Seeing this video brought back my confidence that I can do it! Thank you gorl! 💜

I'm studying graphic design so it's definitely interesting to hear the perspective of someone from the same course even if it's a different major. Good luck on your art journey!

You got this! Discipline and consistency is everything Besides it’s never a good idea to rely solely on a studio job income, better to have multiple income sources so having youtube (or any other source, merch etc.) as a side revenue stream is always a good idea, cause you never know when the project you’re working on gets cancelled or the studio goes under

Hey! I just wanted to say I found this video and I wanted to thank you for it! I'm currently about to head off for college next semester and thinking about doing art for the long haul has been really stressful for me. My first idea was also animation and specifically 2D since it's what I'm most comfortable with. But lately, I've been harsh on myself since I'm more into the storytelling and illustration aspect of art rather than the movements. Hearing how you switched majors to studio art instead of animation really helped me calm down. It makes me feel less of a failure and gives me hope to find that one major that fits the career I want! And also hearing how you want to become a KZread Animator inspired me as a person who grew up on youtube and has thought about uploading since I first saw art. Thank you again for your video, I appreciate you making it. Good luck on your future! I wish you nothing but the best from one fellow artist to another. ❤️

I frigging love your artstyle and ur voice is so calming ;w; I'm gonna be an art major. I'm 17 going on 18, and I think this video helped me learn the kinda stuff that's waiting for me in college. Can't wait to see where this takes me

Im rooting for you! I loved the animation, and your story gave me the motivation to keep pursuing my dream. Life is though, but its important to keep going

Congrats on graduating. I'm also graduating from a CSU here in a couple of weeks and am planning on taking my degree into the animation industry, potentially as a pipeline TD or media engineer title. Best of luck for wherever your major takes you. :)

i know this video is 5 months old but ive been drawing just about my whole life, i wanted to do art for a job as a kid until i heard about the horrors of art schools, so a few years ago i switched to wanting to major in psychology even tho im still in highschool. this encourages me to go back to art as a serious job tho, thank you for popping up in my feed :3

Thank you for giving out tips, Shortcxke! I'm planning to go to an art college because it has been my dream to be an artist ever since I was in middle school. But, as a newbie who is going to college sooner or later, it felt relief as there are people like you handing out tips or advice from experience so that I won't have to make a mistake for choosing a class that I don't feel comfortable doing so. And I think you changing your major is a good thing. Not everyone have to force themselves to something that they're not happy with just for the sake of others. You are you and don't let anyone's desires affect yourself, otherwise you'll be in a state that is unhealthy or unhappy to you. Remember to take care of yourself, drink some water (or any drink/juice), and do what you love, ok? Ok :> (Btw at the beginning when you asked what you look like, you look like Vee from Owl House when she shape-shift as her human-self in the 2nd Season.)

i'm glad, and thank u! omg i love vee!!

I'm glad to have found this channel, good luck with whatever's next!

I’ve been around since your tangled up meme, and I can’t wait to see what you’ll make!!! You got this

This was super awesome, you got this and I believe in you! Majors are just a tool to get you someplace, so if they aren't taking you where you want to go, you shouldn't be weighed down by them.

I am here for the ride! It's been awesome watching your story thus far! I'm in the same boat, except I studied graphic design, and now am working on my first KZread vid. Keep on creating! (And yes, life drawing helped tremendously!)

this is such a comfort to listen and see. as smn who pursues on being a full time artist this gave me a sense that i'll go through trials and errors of starting my university journey

I’m praying for you Shortcxke and your loved ones! I’m praying for everyone else including your loved ones!! 💗🌸🪷💗 Also! Your art and your voice is so cute!!💗🌸🌷‼️💗

i wish i discovered you sooner, your voice is soothing and easy to listen too, your artstyle is also just adorable and comfy.

As someone who is rapidly approaching college, this video really helped me feel less bad about what I wanted to do in college. I’ve been scared of what people might think, and how my life will turn out. And I’ve been scared that I might not make the cut. This video really helped, you keep being you shortcxke!! ❤

It's funny that I came across your video just now because I was taking a 3D modeling class right after quitting my full time job. I have mixed feelings about it, but hey, at least I know my way around Maya! Kudos to you for surviving art school, you made it! Take your time figuring out your next steps. 🙌

Your videos are so cool!!! I live your art style a lot🍓⭐️

I really love how this was animated! Can't wait to see more videos from you!

Wow, this video resonates a bit with me, Im currently on the process on going to an animation university for the SECOND time, cuz I dropped out of my first animation university cuz of the mental struggle, but this video gave me more reasons to not be scared of the future and go with the passion. I hope you can make your dreams and achievements cuz you deserved it shortaxke! Thanks for the video

YOU WILL MAKE IT UP THERE! your art is so good!❤❤

Omggg I really like your art style and animation) your experience is really inspiring, tysm for sharing! ❤

Hyaaahhhhhh! I FEEL INVIGORATED! Thanks for the video! You helped me realize that it’s okay to major what I want to major in. Thank you for posting. I’m going to DESTROY COLLEGE in graphic design and illustration! You’ve earned a subscriber 👍

Never before have I realted to someone so much. I pray your youtube career and love for art only grows from here. Love you and the video.

Prayers on your journey, I'm trying to learn more about art for making games. Having little experience in the arts, I wanna focus on it more. It would be nice to see how you create your chibi art style.

Its funny how most, if not all skills can be learned throught the internet (youtubers, 3rd party sites, ect), and its only up to your determination and to not get distracted.

Your voice sounds so asmr-esk And thankyou for sharing your experiences 🥺 - 💙

As some one who did graduate from their 3D animation program and still not work in the field, TRUST me it's all about your portfolio. The fact that you graduated at all with any degree is the only formal checkbox you need. Good luck on your journey. Take comfort in knowing there are graduates that wish they were making art on KZread with an actual audience like you are. You're winning in my book.

I'm raving ab ur animal crossing-esque audio at 3:20 also the "good" is SOO good lmao!!! I'm going crazy for how you dressed your voice in this video. Hearing you feels like drinking water.

Ugh I felt this! I'm currently an art major at a public university (primary focus is Drawing...we unfortunately don't have animation), and will be getting my BFA this December. And it's not just the super expensive art supplies or the messy oil paints...anyone that's studied/majored in art knows the pain that is art portfolio bags lol But despite all the mental ups and downs, plus all the worries and doubts of "Did I make the right choice?", I'm excited to see what's in store. And I wish you nothing but the best in your art career, shortcxke! (This is actually the first video I've seen from you) Jesus loves you! Have a blessed day!

I love this video so much! It’s so cute and I love your art!

Im currently studying Common Art and design in poly(basically college) in my first year and plan to move to game design and gamification next year. The video really helped introduce me to what it may be like after college and if i do continue to pursue art as a major so thank you for this video ^^! Love your art style too! super comfy

Right now I'm trying to attend Full Sail University for VR tech and 3D modeling! Seeing the struggles and even the process of doing 3d art/animation showed me just how hard working you are! Keep up the good work and I'm sure you'll make it! Remember to take breaks too!

love your art style, congrats on finishing college! subbed!

Your underrated, you deserve more subscribers. You put a lot of effort into these videos and they’re really good.

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT WAIT TO SEE WHERE YOU TAKE THIS MOVING FORWARD! YOURE SUPER SKILLED!!

ur clearly skilled enough to become a popular youtube artist/animator if u stay consistent and motivated. cheering for u boss

You’re not a disappointment, I also perused architecture for the green, but I loved sleeping and not hurting myself making scaled models of projects more.
