when creativity is no longer fun…

Filmed some satisfying footage of my icy freezer this week and it got me thinking about learning.

I love that you needed to defrost your freezer, and started feeling metaphorical about it. Way to turn a necessary chore into some solid content! 👌🏻

This video pushed me to look at my current creative obstacles from another perspective and also a reminder to defrost my fridge. Double thanks!!!

He’s a great film maker, but he’s no expert at defrosting fridges 😂

Very creative and also amusing way to make a point about Creativity and trying new things. Some of the focus in the comments seem to be about how well he was defrosting his fridge, but may have missed the overall point he articulated very well. It is always bold to show a process, whatever it is and even how imperfect it is, to express a point of view or a bigger way of thinking. Always love your videos, thanks again for this one.

Even if it’s not anything interesting to most, I still find it neat seeing someone doijg some simple things as you were doing in the video. Gotta love learning and seeing things, and of course hearing people talk about what they’ve experienced. By the way, I wish you a happy Friday man

It is sad to see that some of the most thoughtful and refreshing videos you create, get the least amount of views.

You're metaphorical films are so relatable. So simple, yet powerful.

Keep it coming! All the best.

I find my favorite way of keeping track of those incremental improvements is journaling during production and post-production, it really lets you see how your subconscious decisions change over time. It's great seeing the progress and continual learning on this channel and it's a good reminder to check on my own progress.

Your videos are resonating with me so hard atm. I've realised that I'm addicted to that early rapid learning phase. Keep doing you bro. Never stop learning

This was such an amazing essay. I can't even understand how you saw a simple frosted fridge and thought of making this. Amazing.

I know I'm crazy, but I keep waiting for the apple bite

Simon, your words always find their way into my heart. Thank you, a bunch.💝

[NanerBag]

Each shot feels perfectly in tune with every sentence you say.

[DaeKim_ipseity]

This is such a heartwarming video that not only applies for creativity but life in general. Great work Simon ❤️

[jenna-maecredo]

Loved the point of this video! It’s the process that sometimes we don’t feel the change or growth right away.

[JustLukeMorgan]

I also feel that routine kills creativity. I need a bit of routine, a pattern and a schedule to hold me accountable. But at the same time, being stuck in the same routine all the time is making me feel less creative at times.

The analogy is perfect after now that you managed the difficult click you feel reliefed and some time later there is a new challenge at the horizon and the it will be full of ice again

Always feeding my mind with creativity after watching your videos

Got a job and sold my camera a few months ago. Quit my job last week and I just thought to myself, ‘I wonder what Simon Cade is up to.’ Nice to see you ‘defrosting.’

The student attacks the ice to get it out.
The master waits and does nothing as the ice melts on it's own.
