For the past month I’ve been running through things, figuring out where I’m going and how I’m going to get there. Which is a hell of an undertaking, considering I feel like I’ve been moving at a snail’s pace, whilst others fly by with their media based futures set in stone or depending on the ever changing multimedia climate in jelly or blamonge.
However, I do have just under 18 months experience of professional web development now, which as many of our fallen web brethren know is about the life span of a dotcom bubble corporation.
Okay, I’m cutting the metaphorical crap now as it’s making me sound like an idiot. I’ve been focusing a lot lately on photography, it’s something that I’ve been told be a few people now that I have a natural talent for and as such I reckon that maybe I should try to hone that as it could be a viable springboard for me into magazines/design or even cinema.
Another big ass decision for me was to do with comics. It’s a tough one, for the longest time I’ve been telling myself, “it’s all I want to do” but as time passes I notice myself less and less focused on drawing and more focused on design and even writing. So I reckon I’m gonna let the sun set on that dream.
As for the writing, I have 2-3 ideas at the moment for tv series, one is a semi-western mini series, the other is animated with the final being a comedy idea. I’ve been plotting out the first and I’m pretty happy with where it’s going so I may speak to some more media minded friends of mine about the next step with that.
So things are looking pretty clear for the first time in years really.
