Welcome to the function...
Artists need to explore various ways to express their creativity. The game is constantly changing, so we have to adjust accordingly! Over the years, I've built a small following and helped people succeed in the entertainment industry because I've never been fond of gatekeepers, and I love cheering for the underdog.
There's so much content made nowadays that audiences are overwhelmed with the hype of the "machine" and the search for quality. As a creative, I love to tell exciting and original stories. As a consumer, I want to be entertained, not another metric in the viewership algorithm.
The industry doesn't listen, though. It's called showbiz for a reason. Our voices aren't enough. We have to show up and show out for the things we love! There is no shortage of excellent films, exciting shows, or fire music. You have to be passionate enough to look, and if you don't quite find what you're looking for, then maybe that's what you should create next!
