amazing how simple yet inspirational this is. sometimes you have to break a task down into 3 days instead of being overwhelmed by the notion of doing it all within an hour

right!

I wish she could upload weekly but at the same i know these kind of videos take a long time. And she focuses on the quality of the videos and does not make them just for the subscriber count, one of the thing why I love her

[@Brook.Gonzales]

YES That shot at 2:42 was breathtaking. I totally have been in your shoes before many times. That creative paralysis can be SO daunting. Not wanting to fail yet not having the capacity to get into the mental space to create. Though deep down you know that you absolutely need it. I'm sure posting this jumpstarted the flow back again!

[@thelifewithnate]

The creative paralysis is a real thing! I often have to write out my content plan with a calendar to make sure that I get somewhere in the process!

[@onlyinaxj1421]

This isn't just a KZbin video, it's a short film. It tells a story, the b roll is amazing, the framing and lighting is near perfect. I'm blown away by the quality, great work!

I agree, I’m blown away 😮

Taking a second to admire that shot around 2:43 !!

[@monicaskrzypczak5023]

A refreshed space is so helpful for creativity. I just redid my art studio after a two month jan-feb hibernation just like you and it helped so much. It's been a difficult start of the year, it's so encouraging to see other creatives letting themselves take that longer break and learning how to be productive again. Loved the video!

[@ioannisgavrilidis3594]

This is so relatable! I love how you showed the reality of starting over - it's not always pretty, but it's definitely a journey of growth. And sometimes, we need to embrace the 'rotting season' to gain clarity and find new momentum. Your gallery wall turned out amazing! It's inspiring to see you take action and transform your space. I'm also on a mission to revamp my creative corner, and your video motivated me to finally tackle those home projects I've been putting off. Thanks for sharing your process and reminding us that it's okay to start small and build momentum gradually.

[@griffindrucker5712]

I swear, every video you upload genuinely couldn’t be better timing for me. Each new video comes out whenever I’m struggling with the exact thing you talk about in the video. Every single time, it helps. Even though I “know” a lot of the advice already, the way you deliver messages in your videos makes the thoughts fit together in my head. Even in videos like this, when the message isn’t focused on much, seeing what your message leads to really helps. Seeing a final product come together, and the annoying shit that gets in the way beforehand, it’s inspiring! I’m a music composition major that’s been struggling with composing anything that I end up keeping. I’ve honestly put off composing for multiple weeks now. Life sends messages in funny ways sometimes, and right now I think it’s telling me to put down YT and open a score! I love the content, and I’m looking forward to forward to the next video!

[@poufytouf7237]

honestly I love everything about the video, the home decor, the lighting, the vibe, the wallpaper, camera quality, the shots, and generally I wish i can get a house that looks as cozy, beautiful and simple yet stunning.

[@wesleybamboo]

I did not just watch over 10 minutes of someone decorating a room as excited as if I was watching a super production movie 😮! Your job is amazing, I fell in one of your reels a while ago, and after watching most of your videos, I gotta tell you that it was worth it!! Ended up posting a first silly video on KZbin after getting some courage from you! 🤧 thank you! Keep doing what you’re doing!! 🙏

[@poppyblue1512]

She has the money for all that stupidly expensive equipment that's why her content looks so good and she got so successful with it. If your videos don't look like this, you probably won't make it or it will take a long time, so don't praise her for it, because she's setting the bar too high for beginners.

[@meghanadontireddy6002]

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​@@poppyblue1512 She's not a beginner...she's done KZbin since 2017. Her videos looked this good but she wasn't successful until 2023. She has good gear bc she was a freelance filmer for 5 years. STORYTELLING makes her videos cinematic vs just looking nice. You need more than expensive gear to make these beautiful videos...you need Riza's skills.

7:23 same here. Putting up some photo frames and decoration stuffs took me 8 hours felt like such an idiot, but a few days later after I calm down, I realised it’s just me underestimated the task itself “putting some photo frames” how hard can it be? It’s my ignorance, not my capability.

[@madz2013]

This was recommended to me on my last day at an incredibly toxic job. It was so bad my hair started falling out. I have the next week off as a reset until I start my new (hopefully better) job.
