    Ryan makes a "day in the life video" and it has the same video quality as Netflix originals. I spend weeks making a video and it looks like a PS1 cutscene. Great job as usual, dude!

    I relate to late mornings and creative boosts in the evenings. I’m a freelance filmmaker and own a coffee roasting company, and sometimes I feel the need to have to conform to the classic entrepreneurial schedule.

    This whole video is a FLEX on how "cinematic" everyday life can be. Well done, bro! This is incredibly real and incredibly well done. Every day doesn't look like a mountain top adventure... BUT every day is fulfilling and worth it! Can't wait to see what's next!

    This is the most authentic and aesthetic routine video I’ve seen. Definitely relate to comparing your content productivity to others on UA-cam. I’ve recently began a new era of creating films just for the sake of art. No matter the views, engagement, trends, etc. it’s a lot easier said than done but as a visual artist I know this is the best direction personally to capture my true purpose

    Well said Ryan. I watched you when I wanted to be a videographer myself. Decided it was not the right path for me, but come back to your videos every so often to see how you are doing. Continue to prioritize your health and happiness. It will give you the most fulfillment and longevity in life. TL;DR Keep drinking those morning coffees. Forget the societal pressures to perform a certain way.

    Duude !! The filming style is dope as always ! But the day itself is amazing. it got all the ingredients for a perfect life : health (food & gym),a creative space (filmmaking) and a loved one to share a coffee with 💞 Keep it up 👊
