“On Harnessing Your Weevily Doubts” is a short film I made about how art is my hero and how even if you’re not initially a good artist, you can become one if you find a reason beyond yourself (such as an art buddy you don’t want to let down) to keep practicing until you can create beauty. Another thing I’d like to share is that you shouldn’t stop doing something just because you’re not good at it yet if it makes you happy. My film is also about my struggle to wrestle with the Weevil of Doubts in my head that prevent me from being more productive such as “You’re not good enough. Everyone’s disappointed in you,” which is basically just me lying to myself.
