The worst part about Indie Animation
You know what the absolute worst thing about Indie Animation is?
Okay, I'm on YouTube, looking at my playlist for Indie-Animation projects I want to watch. I have other things to do, so I can't spend every waking second watching Indie Animation, all right.
And yet, I have this playlist, and I'm not even halfway through watching it, and here YouTube is, recommending me animated project after animated project, and I'm like...
I CAN'T KEEP ADDING STUFF TO MY PLAYLIST.
And that's it, the sadness that you realize you'll never get to see everybody's animated projects simply because there is not enough time. You want everyone to be able to make the kinds of films they love, but am I the only one saddened to know I'll never have time to watch all of them? That sometimes I'll have to see a short film recommended by YouTube, and I'll have to consciously decide not to add it to the playlist, knowing that it might never be recommended to me again?
Sorry, this was supposed to be a joke trigger post, but the point still remains, out of all the great creativity out there, we all ultimately have to pick and choose what we watch, and we might not have time for all of it.
