Why I can't be Talent. Today in AVTF (audio/video tech and film) I volunteered to be the cameraman for an upcoming project, I had a HUGE block on the word "cameraman" and when I was finished I turned to a friend and said, "and that's why I'm not Talent" very quietly. But the class had gone silent, so EVERYONE heard it. There were a few nervous laughs but my teacher said "you okay there u/reneloth?" and I was just like, oh God dammit no. But yes, this is why I am not and CAN NEVER BE Talent. This is just a little amusing story, I don't mind too much. Hope you found it a little amusing. I love my film class, love editing, filming, all of it. I'd love to be Talent but for obvious reasons I can't really do it, but that's alright.
