Cardiff bound...

Well this week I'll be in Cardiff spending my time on an After effects course. I decided about 6months ago that I needed to 'invest' in myself and learn something that I could use in my film making. The more I thought about it, the more I realised that I might actually like a career in VFX. Of course the journey from where I am to where I want to be is a long one, but I hope that this will be the fresh new start that I have been searching for.
The reason that I haven't made any videos recently is a melting pot of excuses, but in all honesty, I grew tired of trying to be someone in front of a camera that felt different to the real me. Sure, being crazy and random is fun and some people like that but the reasons that I started making videos are different now. These days I want to do interesting things with other film makers. I want to learn the craft of the process. I want to be naturally interesting because of the passion I have for the subject matter. 
So this is why during a rainy week in Cardiff, I am spending a week learning some tools of the trade and hopefully be a better after effects user at the end of it. 
Feel free to follow me on this journey for the next 5 days or so, as I intend to post some rambling blogs on YouTube as well as write some drivel on here too...
Tanks for staying interested and speak soon,
Snare.
