This year I turned 40 & hit 20 years in the creative industry, working on amazing movies & games. But I was burned out. In Feb, I left my job to focus on my mental health, walking 800km on the Camino de Santiago. Now, I want to share my journey.

@HollowsWoodsman We get into this work full of passion and creativity. It saddens me to see my friends and colleagues with empty creativity tanks, depressed, and desperately needing this abusive relationship to survive.
@virtualfilmer It is. The amount of layoffs, restructuring, and other changes combined with the continual demand to “do more, faster, for cheaper” has so many people in similar situations. Our health shouldn’t be the price we pay to be in this industry.
@virtualfilmer That’s very true - I’m fortunate enough to be able to take an extended break - I think the creative industry is broken and we need to put mental health first BEFORE we hit a breaking point.
That’s what I hope to explore and share
@WarforgeXP Hmm.. no idea what I did differently, so I recorded a video of a setup from scratch. If following this doesn't work for you, then there's gotta be some sneaky bug somewhere
