@thor No, actually it doesn't mean shit most of the time! Maybe you're good, maybe not — there is no way to tell by showing your art (or whatever) to random people.
And of course it's not the reason to give up — if you want to make money not by editing wedding videos, but with artsy-creative stuff you've got to do A LOT of it for free first.
@thor I think I had already told you this, I've watched some documentary on David Lynch — basically just an interview. And you know what, he was on the verge of giving up when he got his first grant from some educational institution. That's Lynch for christsake! If you want to make it in this game, you should never give up — but nothing is guaranteed This doesn't mean you should double down on it and ruin your life — if you don't feel comfortable with it, put it on hold, never give up completely
