Hey, I’m Schylar from Colorado. For fun I like to go hiking with my wife. Here is a link to my work: byschylarsanford.com
Back Where I Started...
Originally I joined this Skool to try to learn how to grow my Videography Business, but starting to work with Will I discovered I didn't really know what I was wanting. The more I pushed at the topic the more lost I felt. Ultimately I reached a decision to move away from video and try to see if there was another path I wanted to venture down. Some of you may have seen the video game I have been toying around with making. It has been a lot of fun, but I saw that this new industry would come with a whole new set of different problems to face. Not only that, but I would be a beginner starting from the starting line. My mind started to drift back to videography and how I already had experience in the industry, a foothold so to speak. After some time away and really getting to think about the direction I wanted to go, I've decided to get back into video work. Like I said though, I am back where I started when I joined this Skool. Excited for the update that comes next week as I have a lot to do after the weekly meeting we had. I feel recharged and ready to tackle some of these problems head on! See you next week.
Starting My Timeline.
Will gave me some great advice in starting to really map out my timeline for what I'm wanting to do. We had a good talk about deciding your path and that it's okay if you have to "double back" sometimes. Even though going backward feels like a negative most the time, sometimes you have to do that to get onto the path you need to be going on. And the only way you'd get to that new path, is by going back. If that makes sense.
Networking, Networking, Networking.
Just really worked on reaching out to more people each and every day! Did at least 25 messages every day to different people and was able to get 23 total connects. The goal is to get to 500+ connects, but I've got to start somewhere. Got a lot of really good advice on what I should be doing to really position myself the best I can for this pivot into video game design.
LinkedIn Lead Generation Update
Had what I would say was a good response from someone I talked to yesterday. I said, “I'm currently working on trying to create my first game in Unreal Engine. Is that something you think would help market me to be a better potential candidate for some of the entry-level positions that are out there right now?” He said that sticking to one game and not branching out to a bunch of incomplete games is a good start. He then sent a follow up message that I think moves him into the category of 2 star on my Sheets list. And that was, “Certificates of completion could help too. There are courses on Coursera.” Even though Coursera seems to be paid it might be a small, but great way to set apart myself from others in the competition.
