Breathe
I thank God, or call it as you want it: fate, life, destiny…for living as a bird. I’ve just spent 6 weeks of the summer far from home, in Greece and now in Spain. Latin bird right ! I eat when I want, I spend what I want and I feel so good. Why should I hide it ? Life is so cruel sometimes, so I enjoy it when everything goes. This is the full moon now, nature is so beautiful. I’m gonna start to edit a music video I shot in Càdiz with the Canon 5D Mark 4. Never forget to shoot in 50p so you can do beautiful slow motion in 25p. That’s the tip I give you when you don’t have a tripod or a Ronin/Zhiyun Crane to shoot without trembling. I’m thinking of producing the #DigitalNomad documentary, I have a team ready so now it’s about the budget. But I’m not afraid to invest into my projects to turn my dreams into reality. That’s the only thing that goes against what my parents taught me. They always told me to keep my money. But actually, when I spent it to buy expensive video and music equipments, it always led me to find new job missions. Today for example, I’ve just sold a Facebook/YouTube live production, and it pays me a part of this equipment. I could even shoot myself photos or videos for brands I work for. I just don’t do it cause I like to gain time for the development of my brand. 2 days of work are 2 days without others services I can sell…
I’m blessed. To work from Spain or Greece for 6 weeks has not been a problem at all for my clients. Today, an editor called me to speak of my future book about social media strategy. No one cares where you at as long you deliver quickly. I have to start writing that book, and it’s a real pleasure.
The only advice I could give you is to invest on yourself. Even more than what you did til now for companies you didn’t even really love.
