Your' Best work vs Your Most Popular (viewed, liked or whatever, followed) work

[Dean Jay]

Does anyone else have this issue/question?

What I feel is my best work, is usually received as basic..., and my most viewed/well received work is something that, for the most part did not put passion into (that is not to say I didn't try at it, I just didn't think of it as my best effort or 'soul' put into it)

Again, another one of my threads that doesn't have an exact point, but I think can be enlightening

Can you post the works in question? The best, in your opinion, and most popular?

I don't want to bore anyone with my work, I am interested in the discussion though!

I thought you were basing this on your own work and experience?

No, the idea from an artists perception of when they craft vs what the results are...

Then why did you say that?

My bad? I was trying to figure out if anyone had run into a similar situation when working on a project. I guess stats are what matter

 

[indietalk]

I have nothing popular to base that on. But since you do, can we see the work?

How about more viewed than not/well received? Sorry for using the word popular.

 

[indietalk]

No problem. I don't have that either

Can you post the one with the most views and the one you like best? I'm curious now.

No, it is not about my work or my random work lol, trust me I am a fluke. It is about well, the topic! lol

You're cracking me up man

What I feel is my best work, is usually received as basic..., and my most viewed/well received work is something that, for the most part did not put passion into (that is not to say I didn't try at it, I just didn't think of it as my best effort or 'soul' put into it)

I think there are people out there that have created something that have put 100% effort and thought into it and find it to fall flat. All the while, they make something by chance, and it is successful, or should say WORKS better than what they put their best effort in.

Right? Same person, different results in their craft.

You said you had this experience so I was just asking to see said work lol. Forget it man.

My experience is geriatric at this point in wired blogs, that isn't the point lol

 

[indietalk]

So by "work" you meant blogs not films?

I was under the impression this forum was a place for people to create ideas that can form into filmmaking, do people that post here need to have credentials in film? Sorry in advance for doing so

Can you post some alternatives?

 

[indietalk]

No but just trying to understand your question. It's about blogs?
