How Perfectionism Destroyed My Creativity (And How I Got It Back)

Self doubt and perfectionism have stopped me from doing a lot of things because I was worried I wasn't good enough or that no one would like what I have to offer. In this video I'll talk about my story with self-doubt, how my perfectionism affected my work and the strategies I used to not just overcome my thoughts but also make friends with my inner critic. My guide to self-doubt and perfection...
I Left After Effects For This
Переглядів 132 тис.2 місяці тому
I have been looking for years for a good After Effects alternative for 2D motion graphics, and there just hasn't been anything that really hit the nail on the head for me. That was until my viewers recommended Cavalry to me, which is a FREE alternative to After Effects with a focus on animation. So in this video, I tried out Cavalry for a few weeks to compare it to After Effects. Check Out Cava...

I have a product, and hundreds of allover pattern designs, I need images of each one. Is there a way to do this fast instead of doing each one manually?
If you have a template, you should be able to drag in multiple images or patterns and then just toggle the layers and export each one. It may also depend on the product, but I'm not aware of any other way to bulk edit like this in Affinity Photo.
Why is the wording from this video almost exactly like The School of Digital Marketing video (ua-cam.com/video/JsICCLD9jdc/v-deo.htmlsi=d1LdIYedrKZL1tgO)? 4:13 on this video versus 3:35 on that video. Which is the real content creator?
Yeah someone pointed that out to me this morning. They stole my script and screen capture. UA-cam is taking care of it.
@ Good luck with it. Content thievery is horrible.
Great words, thankyou 👍🏼
If you have a decent ipad you could try procreate dreams as an after effects replacement
it's pronounced cavalry, not calvary
everyones freaking out over the premium but honestly i dont really care; i plan to use this for rigging and tweening in my animations and none of the things i need are in the pro version, my face litterally lit up when he mentioned character rigging, and i cant wait to get my computer out of the shop and start animating!
This worries me because I used to use Hitfilm and it got bought by Artlist and now it’s just completely dead they’ve not done an update this year at all. I hate when bigger companies buy the small guys, they always come up with something worse or in Hitfilms case just let it rot.
Instead of ctrl c then ctrl v you can do ctrl+J to duplicate.
hostile paywalls like adobe.. sorry but i can't even donwload the test version, it says my email already have a registered licence, never in my life used this and probably won't because of that
I check on affinity website and I can't find free version for photo... i
an absolutely useless product if you want to work with documents containing layers: psd, tiff, exr
can Adobe bring back one time payments
I love this 👍
Not taking anything away from Cavalry at all, but you do realize that After Effects actually comes with a whole category of text animation presets. Create your text, center it, drop Fly in from Bottom and Fade up from the Effects > Animation Presets>Text>Animate In onto your text, open advanced and change to by line for both and you are done. If you want to do it by character, word, or line, just change it in the drop down under advanced. Drag your keyframes for percentage complete to shorten or lengthen the effect, etc. A very large number of those presets work together really well, so you can combine them into some pretty complex text animations fairly quickly. Again, not taking anything away from Cavalry or your choice, but sometimes it's just being more familiar with the tool.
You are a goat! I’m a vlogger, but I like to make talking head videos like this one often. I use the ZV-1F and I’m looking to upgrade. I want better autofocus (this camera is know to have jittery autofocus, and I noticed this when I watch on larger screens) I want a full frame camera, with true 4k quality. 24-30fps to be exact. I also want better cinematic quality (especially in low light)… I guess I want the fx30… but I still want something less expensive than that. I want to ease my way into these higher end cameras. What do you Recommend? I know this can take my videos to the next level.
Oh, and budget isn’t of no concern 😂
Thank you! I will say that I absolutely love my FX30 and highly recommend it. You don't have to use the advanced features, you can just stick to recording how you might expect from the ZV-1F until you get more comfortable with it. Another option you could consider that's a bit cheaper is the ZV-E10. Otherwise, if you are set on getting a full frame for the best low light performance, then the A7IV is probably one of the best bets. Hope this helps!
@ yeah I checked the A7ii out, and I’m a fan of the camera overall… but imma pass ONLY because of that rolling shutter, and that 4k 60fps crop. It’s nasty and very noticeable for me. Plus… the Fx30 is more valuable for the price. I guess I answered my own question 😂 I’m so sorry lol. Still, it’s great having a conversation with someone that understands cameras. Thank you! U will see more of me in the comments
Oh, I will say the photo quality is AMAZING. I may get it just for that
hehehe you keep calling it CALvary
If you run the whole Adobe suite, you're kinda numb. No one in their right mind does anything else than exactly what they need within Adobe. Or you got too much money to spill. Lightroom is specialised, It's very few complete competitors. That and Illustrator, for my use. It's the only thing I will want to pay for from Adobe. Everything else has better alternatives. Welcome to the dark side Michael ;) ..this is the right time to also leave ALL subscription based services. Yes, also spotify.
Nice video, but Cavalry ≠ Calvary
Are these alternatives you mentioned, compatible with - Linux, also?
Ah yes another app with no perpetual license
Thank U so much
My text node won't bounce off merge1 to create another merge node? Ideas? Thanks.
I miss paying a fixed price for adobe software. Just the WEF slogan in action." You will own nothing and be happy" introducing subscription's in the past was WEF's plan to conform society toward their goal.
No mobile app, canva is better.
I've been on and off video editors, DaVinci resolve is the most reliable although slightly laggy and buggy at times. For art/image editing, I use Clip Studio Paint which I actually don't recommend mainly because it's not open source and it has a lot of spam/bloatware in the addons market place (Not to mention is scummy). Still looking for an alternative to the art software. I came from Photoshop initially and with video editing I came from Vegas Pro and Filmora. I don't regret the switches. There's no stupid subscription cost or obstacles. It's just there when I need it, can be installed anywhere anytime.
Yes bro you should move to calvary cuz you actually don't know about after effects
Apple Motion $50 lifetime
wow, you rock! very clear explained
Great job mispronouncing cavalry bud
Thanks!❤
2:40 in regards to the text animation > AE has an insane amount of amazing animation presets at your disposal. With your text layer selected, double click on any of them and your text is now animated!
My man, you have to learn to say Cavalry! It's not Calvary. It's Cavalry!
I made the switch , it was scary but I’m here to say “ don’t be afraid “. I switched to Affinity and Corel. Very happy to say, this was a great decision. Cheers?
I used to use pirated photoshop and premiere pro and even I left them for affinity photo and Resolve. Blender is great for animations.
What are the system requirements?
ADOBE IS A SCAM!! STRAIGHT AND SIMPLE!
I love that Hank Green quote. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this.
Very interesting, thank you.
Try Cavalry for Motion Design. It is layer-based and node-based software. Just try
Nice tutorial, thanks!
All good, until 1:18 when you sorta conjure up a sky from Lord knows where! When I try to open a sky it opens in a totally different layer panel, not in the same one like yours does. And then, like David Copperfield, you magic up more skies from smewhere!! Could you just explain to this 82 year old newbie, how you bring a replacement sky into your project.
Ae should have added keyframe curve presets ages ago.
I see one scenario as continuation of a one off purchase base with maybe version upgrades at a fraction of new licence cost. I use topaz and it is awesome but each year the price is full cost for a year's worth of upgrade. Having left Adobe as soon as they went subscription, I embrace ai as another creative tool and would see this as a potential reason to justify incremental updates with a fractional pricing. Ultimately as a creative I think we need to see competition and not monopoly within the tool market place.
Affinity currently has a 6 months try free no strings attached offer! They're really trying to get more people to switch from Adobe 😜
Hello Michael. Love your video. Thought to report this creator who literally copied your video, word for word and scene for scene (even your personal examples). I tagged you there, but it didn't work. ua-cam.com/video/JsICCLD9jdc/v-deo.html
IT LOOKS LIKE Ae and fusion fucked and had a baby
It’s not new. It’s been out for several years.
I'd have happily paid a couple of hundred quid to adobe to allow me to use my old CS5 on a new computer. But as my only alternative seems to be to pay £650 quid a year for cloud/AI software I don't want, it enraged me so much that was provoked into trying affinity this week. So far I have only explored Publisher. Now, having tried it, I'd choose Publisher over CS5 ID even if they were both free, you'd have to pay ME to use ID. For my needs affinity publisher is better, faster, and more intuitive (and I've been on ID since CS1). It was easier to change over than to cope with ID upgrades. Photo is next in my list to explore.
Funny how everyone switches to saying "Calvary" after some time.
please free software for simply editable animated charts? or connected and edited with xls table or any spreadsheet software ... or plugin to after effects, thanks
