Production Blog (The Message I Want To Present)

 Hey, blog!! In my last blog, I talked about how I was going to go through all my SD cards and places I know that have all videos and photos backed up. I've only found one SD card so far but got two videos that would actually fit well into my commercial. Going through my Google Photos and iCloud, I did find a couple videos but I do have to go through them a couple times since the quality might not be that great. I did bring up how in a blog I wanted to add things from school. When I found some of these, it was great looking back at memories and seeing how far I've come. You don't really realize how fast time goes by or how fast you grew up. All these memories not only showed me how far I've come but also how my life has changed due to them. All the friend groups, little drama, trips, and more. Those were little life lessons that I never realized had such an effect on my perspectives and who I am as a person overall. Not only did I bring up school and the friendships I've had over time but I did bring up medical issues. When you're younger, your parents always say something along the lines of "You'll understand when you get older" and yes we all know it's annoying to hear but it's very true. When I heard people talk about anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental issues, I thought it made no sense and it was an exaggeration but as I grew up I began to understand and deal with my own issues. During COVID-19 I developed severe anxiety/depression due to personal problems which led to extreme health issues. It was a long process to just make the first step but it showed how far I truly came and the obstacles that led me to who I am today. That's the message I want to present in my commercial. Throughout life, you will hit roadblocks and things might not always go your way but you begin to overcome them and that is what shapes you as you grow. Different experiences could have many different effects. You'll begin to realize they were all life lessons (big or small) in the long run. I want to share that so people can understand. Thank you!
