So here's my update for the past month. I've finally found a degree to work on! You may be asking what took me so long? Well, I've never found anything I immediately knew of interesting enough to actually commit my time and money to learn. But, I've decided to go for a Digital Cinematography degree. I want to go into film editing with it. All of this was decided this last month. (March) And with this, comes a lot of time involved. It will take a long time for me to be able to get to the professional level of editing I want to get to. While I do have a good eye for pictures, and other things, as such, I find that there's not enough money in Photography to make a living off of.
This is the main reason I've been "inactive" this month. I went and spent many hours going through old photos, trying to figure out how I like to edit them. I've gotten Photoshop and Lightroom to edit. (For now. ) Looked at cameras. Found a good college, and did research. Between that, and my full-time job, I've been busy. I have been really happy to find a degree to do, and this new sense of direction is just awesome. Best thing, is that in theory, I should have no issues with getting into huge amounts of debt while getting an expensive Fine Arts type degree.
Well, in short, that's been my month! Looking forward at this month, I'm getting ready to get back States-side, doing more editing, and doing research on the best edited movies. Hopefully this month will be as good as March!
Edit- Had an example photo, but upload didn't work...
