Thanks Dianna for this thoughtful, insightful discussion. For various reasons, I've hit pause on creating short-form video this year but back when I was actively playing around with it, I came up with this framework for ~ trying ~ to create content intentionally...
1 — SUBSTANCE / Is the footage actually visually/narratively engaging?
2 — IMPACT / Would I feel good about the video being seen, saved, shared by potentially tens of thousands or even a million people, aka going viral?
3 — AUTHENTICITY / Can I see myself keep making more of this particular kind of video of my own volition?
This all might be overthinking as far as social media is concerned, but I do find them helpful guardrails to avoid one day ending up where I didn't want to be.
Generally though, I think staying open-minded and "never say never" is a good mindset to have for content creation — it's creative, after all! — so I look forward to seeing where you take it next ;)
I absolutely love the hair care tips!! I want everything Crown Affair!!
this was so good <3
