You sound like some fucking autists I bet you look obvious as FUCK doing it holy shit if I saw either of you in public doing that gay ass shit I'd beat your asses right then and there not only would I get praised (cause let's face it you both probably look like fucking creeps, fat ugly creeps) I'd get laid that instant and your mom would cry and kill you in your sleep that night. Oh no wait she'd kill you in your sleep the next afternoon cause you are neet motherfuckers

This probably means you could be a filmmaker. Go for it, anon. I'm not memeing either. Just get a cheap camera and start doing something with it.

>>79083869
How do you guys picture yourselves? I always picture myself in third person in memories. This makes it easy for me to spin around the mental camera.

>>79086081

this

spielberg said the most important thing is being able to visualize shots. If you cant do that you will never be good

I do the same as op and make short films

How do you become a director if you don't have a mind's eye? Is all hope lost for me?

It's something I've been considering, honestly I've only really been into film as an artform for less than a year, mostly I read growing up, but it's taken over a good portion of my life.

I've also found the Les Blank short Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe to be pretty inspiring with regards to filmmaking

Reminder that all really creative minds """suffer""" from this. Psychology is hilarious sometimes, especially on Wikipedia.

Holy fuck. This is what I have. I didn't know it was a bad thing though. It's just the way I behave when I'm alone.

>>79086823
It's not bad

>>79086823
It's only bad if it inhibits your ability to function in society. Psychology, as criticized as it is as a science, generally only wants to get involved if something's a problem. Like I have all the hallmarks of schizoid personality disorder, but because I can function as part of society and am content with my life, it's not a disorder in my case, I'm just another type of personality.

>I didn't know it was a bad thing though.
It's not. It's a symptom of a creative mind. The concept was analyzed and the term coined by people who probably don't have a sliver of creativity in them, also known as psychologists. Of course, the "condition" has its extremes, as >>79086866 says, but then again, so does everything.
Daydreams are the foundation of art. Never be afraid to dream, anon. Embrace it. The people who will make fun of you don't understand it because they're unable to experience anything of the sort themselves.
You shouldn't stop at daydreaming, though. This is how you know you have artistic potential, but it's only that - potential. At some point you actually have to work, and work hard, to make it into something, be it film, literature, music, painting, or anything else. It's a wonderful feeling to actually create something born of your own mind. If you don't release your creativity somehow, it'll eventually grow into disappointment and regret. Do it.

I already know how I would do it but I hate myself for being so narcissistic that I'd never do it.

This sort of inspiration usually passes quickly, because it's based on emotion. Don't let it. You have to actually put in a lot of effort to hold on to it and make something of it, but it's so worth it. You can do it, anon. I hope you succeed.

>>79087314
I think the difficult part for most is just having no sense of where to start.

>>79087079

I know what you mean, but, for most, it's just an excuse to not do anything about it, caused by a deep fear of actually putting your soul out into the world. It's so much easier to just stay home, go to school or work, swim along the stream and tell yourself you could never achieve anything anyway - that's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Want to be a filmmaker? I'll tell you where to start. Just get a camera, any camera, photo or video, and start capturing the things you find interesting and beautiful. Learn how to translate your imagination to a screen, which is hard and takes a lot of training. You won't know how hard it is until you try, but, again, it will be worth it, if it's really something you want to do.
The problem of "not knowing where to start" is also largely caused by the age we're living in. Everything is handed to you on a silver spoon, which takes away all motivation. In a way, you have to fight harder than ever before to achieve something, creatively speaking. It's a dull time we're living in, and I don't mean >muh born in the wrong time, I mean the modern world actually stifling and killing creativity in people, mostly through mass media, including the site you're on right now. If you haven't given it much thought, it it can probably even sound like a conspiracy theory - goes to show how gradual and subtle the process of mind numbing is.

Another thing I'd recommend is, if you're a late sleeper, start getting up really early in the morning, and, if you tend to sleep a lot, sleep less. This has helped me a lot.
If you browse /lit/, browse it less. It's mostly full of people who aren't achieving anything. Read more instead. Take long walks.
Good luck, anon.
