In this riveting discussion, the team delves into the perplexing phenomenon of why some individuals harbor a deep-seated hatred for videos as creators begin to gain momentum. The hate, it seems, stems from the very essence of uniqueness and deviation from the conventional norms of filmmaking. As creators venture into uncharted territories, daring to tread paths less traveled, the automatic response from those around them is often one of disbelief and disapproval, urging them to abandon their unconventional pursuits and return to the safety of the familiar. However, as the team astutely points out, this resistance often manifests in the form of hate.
Furthermore, the conversation sheds light on how this animosity intensifies as a creator's style evolves and becomes more refined and distinct. Interestingly, even fellow filmmakers may find themselves perturbed by the emergence of a unique style, leading to a surge in criticism. Drawing from personal experiences, the team reflects on the production of a feature film with Danny GTS, where initial uncertainties regarding the style gave way to a profound appreciation for its uniqueness. The journey of refining one's style is likened to a transformative process, where hate and admiration walk hand in hand, ultimately shaping the creator's artistic identity.
As the discussion unfolds, the team emphasizes the importance of perseverance in the face of criticism and the relentless pursuit of one's unique style. Drawing parallels with renowned filmmakers like Wes Anderson, the team illustrates how enduring hate can pave the way for widespread admiration in the realm of filmmaking. Through a series of anecdotes and insights, the team underscores the significance of experimentation, learning, and the relentless quest for self-improvement in honing one's craft. The narrative culminates in a resounding call to action, urging aspiring filmmakers to embrace their individuality, weather the storm of criticism, and steadfastly refine their artistic style to achieve unparalleled success in the competitive landscape of filmmaking.
