I’ve been doing amateurishly Directing and Acting, and probably I do many things wrong, but last things I want is bunch of pros telling me what I cannot do. I’m open to opinions and insights, but not from everyone equally, film is a very competitive area and people have their egos, so I recognize that some people just want things to be done their way, (probably myself included to an extent), my acting and directing is just doing what feels right, sometimes I just have an idea and I press that record button. Much of my performances as to its purpose were just to break the stage  fright within myself, and I have sort of an inner compass of just how much social pressure I can take at the time. Every place is different, people are different and culture is different, so with that in mind I’m trying to sense out what I can get away with while pushing the edge of ‘my artistry’ at the same time. I’m not a protester or anything, but I take my stance on things and in life, so so far I’ve had some positive responses. Mostly people just don’t get what da flick I am doing and why, but I guess they think something along the lines: “well just another crazy youtuber let him do it”.  I keep mostly to myself, I mean I perform out in the open and physically anyone could just approach me and ask what am I doing, but in smaller towns that rarely happens.  When I’m in bigger city the response is much warmer and people much more open minded, but then myself I’m a bit overwhelmed by big city life and a little shy, so its a mixed bag of performing within different environments dealing with different people, culture and different pressures involved.

I’m just me and people are just people, so while it can be difficult its always unique to step into new places, meeting different people, at the same time it exercises that part of the brain called “streetsmarts”, that in too structured environments don't get as much of its daily jogging.
Being in the open is what I like, open space is a non-commital comfort, going inside the closed places its more intimate and once I step in its settled that I got to be open to questions and enquirers, so its my conundrum to be needing popularity as necessary part of that craft, but at heart I like much of quietude, tranquility, time in nature and in garden, but I begin to enjoy the thrill and the challenge of such performances and I look  forward of what the grace of fate will place along my way of new experiences.


Thank you for enduring of my rumbling,

To me, it is all about the money.

How much money is involved from the acting and directing.  Is it enough to make a living?  If not then is it really worth it?

I think Anne has a point. But some people are simply artists, while any income generated from the art may be miniscule. Or the teacher who has never taught in the classroom. My kid is a writer, currently working on filmaking. I tell him he will always be a writer, but that may not be how he feeds his family when he is ready to start one. The main thing is to be an honorable man with an honestly obtained income.

Good luck in your endeavors.

thanks Jeff for support,
it can be argued endlessly as to why, in short it does not align with my values.

Thank you Anne,
really appreciate your honesty, to me its an important part of self expression in my way of doing things,I think to monetize it properly it takes a dedicated team to cover several roles at play, but I'm open to suggestions - how would you monetize it in few points?

My thinking might be impractical, but my assumption is that we live in very visual and
performative world, who knows maybe 10 years from now robots will take 90% of jobs
including gardening, and my guess is that the more difficult jobs to be replaced will
be around people matters, so to me its accumulating a certain know how that pushes
my comfort zone, can it pay? like I said it before at the moment its just me and my ideas,
and I follow on the rule of "start where you are with what you've got", I have several
business models in mind, but each of them requires some recruitment to be done,
and I'm working on it, but I also stick to the rule "hire slowly, fire quickly",
in the mean time I keep accumulating skills and material, I believe right people
will come along just at the right time, especially that I actively work on that area,
even be it at my own pace of doing it.

Baby Seals

One sunny day I went to the skatepark to do a little performance, as I was gearing up setting camera and some signs of displaying my artistic intent I got up and went into action. But first I need to say that it was interesting to observe the contrast between reactions of different demographics of my audiences.
