BEING CREATIVE = BURN OUT AND HOW TO AVOID THIS

Hey Guys,

Welcome back to another blog post. Today I'm going to be talking about burning out and being in the creative media industry as I feel like its not something talked about in the industry. As a media student and always creating a piece of works weather its a short film, poster, animation piece or studio piece and burn out is something we all fear. I don't like to burn out it makes me feel unproductive and unmovation and I feel like I don't have the energy to create podcast episodes or youtube videos.

I feel especially during college because my course is so creative and fast-paced and busy.  It's hard to balance side projects and being your own creating your own media it can be hard but I have learned some tricks to deal with burnout and not let it get the best of you.

  1. Don't beat yourself up for not having your work done 
  2. write down a to-do list 
  3. actually, go out and be a creative shoot that short film, takes these photographies, record that episode of your podcast.
