Finding Balance as a Creative | Real Creative Lives
Four artists join the CreativeLive content team for a candid conversation on mental health and creativity.
The creative's path is filled with peaks and valleys. At best, joy and fulfillment come from art that reflects who we are, what we believe, and the way we see the world. But we also encounter tremendous self-doubt, impostor syndrome, detrimental comparison to others, and severe stress along the way.
Left unchecked, this can take a serious toll on our mental health.
Recently, the CreativeLive content team had the chance to chat with four creative entrepreneurs to hear about their mental health and mindset journeys, the challenges of being an artist, and more.
A huge piece of coping with the challenges of the creative journey is understanding that you’re not alone. Every path is unique, but the emotions and challenges along the way have many similarities across the board. Don’t be afraid to speak up about the difficulties you’re experiencing. When you keep it inside, it can eat away at you and create stronger feelings of isolation and doubt that will only negatively impact your work. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, make time to do things you enjoy, surround yourself with people you love, be intentional about your mental health, and keep creating.

    It may look better in terms of shape and size of the body, but the 1st thing that comes to my mind is : it's not natural, I've never seen a woman stand like this. And this instantly throws me off. It's a lot more obvious in the woman's poses. The man seemed to naturally adopt a more... well, natural position.

    Exactly what not to do for professional modeling and photography.

  • @smaga3507
    @smaga3507 Місяць тому

    You sure like to destroy a model image shooting hands! ASK - What is the purpose of a model image? What is a client looking for in a model or a model image? I've shot around 8000 models, 45 million images and I never seen so much entertainment versus professional model photography. Modeling is common sense. You got it or you don't. At 3 years old, I had it. Do you know the purpose of a model image so you don't put hands near the face or make a dress shot become a distracting hand shot? If you were interviewing would you turn your shoulder to the interviewer? Would you put your hand near the face? Don't people put their hands up to distract and draw attention to a friend, tabor bus? Why would you distract from the subject and make your shots about hands so your images are beat out by first day model photographers? Not only do you shoot hands, but you block bodies with forearms , surely adding distracting shadows and breaking up the REAL purpose of a model image. Learn your trade. If you do your will learn that all this posing BS isn't how you become the best model or model photographer.

  • @smaga3507
    @smaga3507 Місяць тому

    Why would you put fingers near face? Because you saw another start up do so. What is the purpose of a model image? Been shooting agency models since 1966 and would never ever, ever do any of this for you want professional images and shoot for features.

    @1:00 Is the focal plane different from the point of covergence? I thought there was a point within the lens where light intersects and then projects onto the camera film or sensor, hence lens mm lengths?

    I love the theory he presents. But id like to point out something that highlights his passion. As he starts talking notice that he slows down and trips on words.. At first I thought it was camera shyness. But as he progressed I realized as he was explaining things he was literally visualizing the chain in action. So he was pausing because he was literally pausing while he was routing the signal. I rewound the video a few times to line it up. This is passion. This man LIVES in the mix.

    I don't get it. If the focal point is a point, then shouldn't the camera sensor also be infinitely small?

    • @EmpyreanLightASMR
      @EmpyreanLightASMR Місяць тому

      The focal point should land on the surface of the sensor, which is an infinitely thin surface.

    using an expo disc every time and still get the photo under exposed is insane, a total waste of time I think. I use my camera's metering system, compensate my exposure depending of the scene (bright or dark) not to get everything 18% gray, and get my picture correctly exposed every single time, and in a fraction of time.

    Not a great lesson. Either it's a bad beauty dish or the photographer doesn't know what she's doing. She never got rid of the hot spot on the forehead. The beauty dish is supposed to provide a smooth, crisp, glamorous light source. That is why it's called a beauty dish. None of these results made the model look more glamorous. Very strange.
