I share my ups and downs of making something I'm not sure I can do. I might fail. To motivate and educate I start with my story and fighting fear. 

 

Fighting fear (my journey). https://blab.im/steve-payne-fear-of-failure-7-reasons-people-don-t-try-and-how-to-overcome-this

 

The series starts on Blab.im but I move it to youtube for better quality.

Part 2. Raw (Coreographed) Animation import. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xi_Pb37RnmU&list=PL511383E90B92CC0E&index=88

    Watched Part 1  .... you have an interesting background you rebellious git! wink 

    Cheers for sharing. But, I could not get the link for part 2 to work... said was "unresolved" on the error page.

    Tutorials are great, even if above my level, very helpful to see how experts work with Carrara. Thanks!

    ha ha! The word "git" makes a comeback.

    I've amended the link for part 2. Thanks! That's useful feedback otherwise it just sits there being embarassing. 

    re: being above your level. You can do it Silene. That's what this series is about. I might fall flat on my face, but making myself accountable, might just force me to find solutions to the problems.

    It's gonna be a rollercoaster!

    I watched your first presentation on why people don't try (or give up too, presumably). Had to watch it over several sessions, as an hour was too long for sneak-watching. Interesting "up the nose" camera angle! wink

    have you thought of trying audiobook narration? You've got a good voice for it, and with that studio setup I'm sure you'd get excellent results.

    BTW, talking about trying and not giving up, keep an eye on the DAZ store over the next few days . . .

    Thanks man. I've got a green screen now so the "up the nose" viewpoint is history. 

    Audio narration. One possible avenue in the future. Thanks for the idea. My focus right now is finishing the webseries, and raising awareness of it.

    Daz store? You tease ;-)

    Wow, the anticipation is killing me. Love your scenes.  Can't wait to see you break the store code and get some of that awesome landscape and architecture talent in the hands of folks like me.  Fingers are crossed.

    Just watched the Blab thing - didn't know you looked like Daniel Craig! (well, kind of, he's who I'd choose to play you when they make a movie of your life...)

  • TangoAlphaTangoAlpha Posts: 4,584

    Interesting - I hadn't made that connection, but you're right!

  • Sci Fi FunkSci Fi Funk Posts: 1,198

    Ha Ha. Well I'll happily take that kind of money!
