It’s a beautiful new year and while I don’t believe in New Years resolutions (I’m more about anytime-you-want resolutions, why wait?) it’s definitely a good time to make some changes to my blog.
I’ve had a lot of fun over the past 6 months setting up my site and getting my first blog going (that Xanga from high school doesn’t count!), but for the last month I’ve been thinking a lot about the direction I’m taking it in. As a beginning freelancer, I was worried about being taken seriously so I made sure my blog was as “professional” as can be. I decided that its only purpose was to help supplement my freelance career and maintain my “professionality”.
Well I’m done with that.
No that doesn’t mean I’m gonna start swearing every other word, it just means I’m gonna loosen up this pressure and start having some more fun with my blog. I remember the whole reason I decided to get a blog in the first place was because I wanted people to not only see my work, but get to also get to know me.
So from now on, less “news-ish” type stories, and more of me. I’ll start to post more on what I want to post, not what I should post. Have more fun with my blog after all, it is my blog. I also really want to open a “non-work” section of my site for little films and fun shorts that I’ve made over the years. And hopefully with all this you guys will get to know more about me, what my life is like as a freelancer, and what makes me tick as a filmmaker.
And about that professionality thing? Eh, I’ll just let my work speak for itself. Seems to be working so far!
