“It’s not what you like, it’s what you’re like”- Emily Mitrevski
In class we discussed ways to explore the project brief 2. A classmate of ours said something that really hit me hard since I myself was rather stuck on the idea of a self-portrait and how I was to express myself through film. We put so much time and effort into everything around us I realised that in the realm of it all I’d lost sight of my true identity. As an even younger self I establish a good identity but as I left school and time changed which affected the time I had for hobbies and other activities a began to change as well. I guess it’s a transitional period in life. But Emily was right when trying to search for the core of our identity it aren’t what we like in life its what we are like. This flipped the whole diameter of thinking for me because instead of thinking from my perspective I instead through of myself from somebody else’s shoes.
