20/20 Vision:
The Journey Continues

When I released my first video for Waterlane Studios, on March 20th - fittingly, the Spring Equinox, a day for fresh beginnings - I had zero subscribers and a head full of ideas. Fast forward to April 20th, and I’d made 20 videos. As we approach May 20th, I now have 20 subscribers on Youtube. It might not seem like a huge number, but every single one of those subscribers means a lot to me.

Staying motivated can be tough when the views go up and down, and producing more videos often means learning new tools and spending days of hard work just to create a half-minute video. It can feel exhausting at times. But instead of calling it quits, I’ve chosen to double down. I’m now working on three new playlists, each one a new adventure. I won’t give away all the details just yet, but they’re coming along nicely. I’ve even started early work on future longer-form movies.

On top of that, my latest playlist, Nature’s Whispers, has really done well. The most recent video from that series has become my highest-viewed video on YouTube so far. It’s proof that every small step counts, that with persistence and care, ideas can take root.

I want to say a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has liked, commented, and supported the journey so far—no matter which platform you’ve chosen. It’s not just about motivation; it's about knowing that what I’m creating has been valued. I truly appreciate you taking a moment out of your day to connect with my work. That time and energy means a lot to me. Thank you for being part of this journey.
