wtf ttm.

i know i said i wouldnt be bothered to do a proper blog post but some random person fuelled me up so here goes

Even before i entered SP, i was already a creative person. I may not be the best, but I've always leaned towards the creative side. In 2009, I really love Taylor Swift (i still do but no as much anymore). She had a song which did not have a mv. Plus everyone got the meaning wrong. So i decided to do one. I did not have any actors so i google pictures to represent what i was picturing. Like a story board. I compiled them, make it into a video and uploaded it onto Youtube. I did it for fun and not for anything else. Eventually, there were many good responses and i was happy.

After my first video, people commented on my page to do another video of other songs.
I really wanted to do more videos but ideas dont come so easily. In 2010, i heard another song from Taylor Swift. I love the song so damn much that i decided to make another "mv". I didnt have any good ideas but i wanted to see it through. And i did - after squeezing all the brain juice in my head.

It was generally well-received. I mean, there were bad comments but i've always thought it was ok. Some people like it doesn't mean everyone will right? But this comment made me really angry. (The yellow box is my reply)



If you dont like the video, say so! I thought of EVERYTHING myself. Whether its good or bad, i will take full responsibility. Sure there was a scene inspired from another mv but i did credited it. Imagine if someone comes up to you and say, "Its a good work but im sure you're not brilliant enough to have done it. You really should credit the person who helped you,"

@*#&*&$^@#!
I can handle it if you say you dont like it. But i cannot accept the fact that you're wrongly accusing me of copying some other person's work! Like i've said: Its an insult to both my intelligence and my work. What? You think im not good enough????

I know my videos are amateur. The first one i did was before i enter DTVM. The second one was a month i enter DTVM. I mean, i literally LOL-ed when i saw the comments for my first video. I laughed because i dont think i deserve such praises. Im sure if any of my classmates were to see the videos now, they'd also have laugh. But that doesnt mean you can say that im copying some other people. Here are some bad and good comments.




No matter what reactions i get, my work is still my work. And i will be proud of them. Im not angry if you straight up tell me you dont like it. But i cant stand it when ppl ask me to credit others when i did the work myself! What im trying to say is that even if the video is bad, i would still be angry if you say i copied from some other people.

To writers, i think, that is the biggest insult.
