Visual Transitions
My dream world would be a world of light and enlightenment.
Of airy visuals, riveting storylines, and where everyone in the world’s story ends contently.
I envision a life where creativity flows like a river is not stagnated by rigid expectations.
I am black.
I am female.
I am an artist.
And I am no longer content with being one of the few.
I want to spread my knowledge while gaining it,
until it permeates to every young black girl, or young girl,
or young person and they have the opportunity to use my media so they also can gain a voice.
However, none of this possible while, I myself, am still a mere pupil.
I have much to learn, not only as a video editor, or an artist, but as a person.
What will be my message to spread?
But, I guess, in the end the important factor is that it will be my message.
Not society’s.
I will someday have the power to edit out negative, sexist, racist, homophobic, discriminatory messages from the media, and I will encourage others to do the same.
