what do you want to be when you grow
[Music]
up do you remember the last time you
were at rock bottom
for me it was January
2023 3 months into this journey I was
just fired for my first job out of
college a job that I thought was going
to change my
life as a kid we all had big
aspirations I dreamt of being an NBA
player from the day I picked up a
basketball at age
10 but somewhere along the way
our dreams
die and we end up spending a lot of Our
Lives not knowing what we really want to
do and here I am half a year out of
college feeling the same pain I did when
I got cut from my high school basketball
team my freshman
year picture yourself chasing your
dreams for a second you probably do have
a passion or idea that you want to
explore further you've done your
research have some sort of plan and all
that's left is just doing
it so what's holding you back it's quite
scary taking the first steps into the
unknown and even if you started the
reality is you'll have to execute better
than 99% of the people around you to
reach your
dreams however in a world where we're
crowned for success but clowned for
failure we of to let our fears get in
the way of figuring out what we're
really capable
of getting fired ended up being the best
thing that ever happened to me because
without these 20 days of Rock Bottom I
wouldn't have experienced the best year
of my life
[Music]
so how did I turn my life around after
being fired land a project with the NFL
work on a music video with Metro boomman
and who even am I let me introduce
myself hi I'm Justin or better known as
shenny visuals I'm a 23-year-old
filmmaker from Portland currently living
in Chicago after graduating from college
2 years ago I wanted to answer one
question that's been in my head for the
last few years could I make a living
through my creative
passions over the last 500 Days life has
taken me on quite the ride while I went
viral traveled the world had tons of new
people and I even made the news I also
went through self-doubt break and
probably the toughest year of my life
through the highs and lows I wanted to
make an honest video about the reality
of chasing your dreams in your early 20s
and the 10 lessons I learned in
between the journey all started when a
company asked me to be their full-time
creative
director but how does a 22-year-old
business school graduate even get this
kind of opportunity
[Music]
all right hey guys crazy game here
welcome back to another episode of
Minecraft from a young age I realized
that creativity is in everyone's blood
while my NBA dreams died at age 14 I got
inspired by my favorite YouTubers to
make Minecraft videos mess around with
3D animation and learn how to video edit
with the new aspirations of becoming a
famous
YouTuber as you can see that didn't work
out
eventually I went to business school
where I felt like a bit of an outcast I
never got the best grades and while all
my peers were extremely confident and
extroverted I realized that I wasn't the
best at expressing myself through small
talk and quick witted conversations
which felt essential to Making
Connections in business
school however everything changed for me
my sophomore year when the world shut
down from Co
during the long periods of isolation I
found solace and looking through
memories from college which gave me the
urge to edit videos again it's a way to
express my
[Music]
Nostalgia being away from Friends made
me realize how valuable capturing each
memory was so when the summer came
around I decided to buy a camera with
the help my parents to start documenting
life through my eyes and it truly felt
like love at first
[Music]
sight in the blink of an eye my camera
will be with me everywhere capturing
Precious Memories for me and my friends
as we explored the Great Outdoors during
the night my camera will be by my side
while I stayed up editing photos
reliving every moment from our latest
Adventure this new creative world made
me feel so alive life Not only was it
the outlet to express myself that I
couldn't find in college but for the
first time in my life it felt like the
walls of my world were being torn
down so when I went back to campus that
fall I made it a goal to make the most
out of my newfound Passion by following
one simple rule let your curiosity lead
you places I wanted to share my
creativity with friends so we documented
life and went on spontaneous photo
shoots all throughout campus I wanted to
be involved with my sport again so I
asked the basketball team to work for
free I wanted to start freelancing so I
networked around campus to work with
businesses and
organizations and over time my once
mundane college life started feeling
full of joy and excitement I bonded with
friends met new people lived new
experiences ran my own business and
reconnected with the game I love but
more importantly it was the first time
in life I felt a strong sense of purpose
through the thousands of pictures and
videos I took I saw the smile I put on
people's faces and I felt like I made a
change in the world for the first
time but once I graduated life got
real as much as I wanted to dive head
first into the creative sphere I
couldn't help but feel like I reached
the end of my Runway and for now the
corporate job I had lined up will be the
smarter and more comfortable path to a
stable life
[Music]
do you ever catch yourself running for
the
train from a young age I've always been
fascinated by
trains although we all have different
aspirations growing up most people end
up waiting at the same stations boarding
the same trains to end up in the same
predetermined destinations as
others but once in a while a different
train will show up
unexpectedly it's not on the map as you
know and the tracks have never been
tested what would you do if it promised
to take you to your dream
destination just a few weeks before my
corporate start date one of my old
sportsware clients from college offered
me a job to be their full-time creative
director this was my unexpected train I
knew the tracks wouldn't be as safe and
there was no sign of the route on my map
but as I've done all throughout my
creative Journey so far I've trusted my
curiosity which told me to hop on this
train there was one catch I kept a
return ticket to corporate life for next
October giving myself exactly one year
to prove I was here to stay in the
creative world so this is how I started
the 500 day journey to Chase my creative
dreams
[Music]
I've always wanted to live in a big city
growing up I was spoiled by the nature
of the Pacific Northwest but whenever I
visited Chicago or New York City I was
always enamored by the energy radiated
by the busting streets and concrete
Abyss something about the possibilities
felt endless here it was the perfect
place to figure out the question I've
been trying to answer my whole life who
even am I among this madness
Life After College comes at you fast one
moment we're surrounded by friends and
thousands of people our age on a lively
college campus the next moment we're all
alone in a new city trying to figure out
our new purpose in
life how does one feel alone in a city
with millions of people although I was
excited to start my new life being on a
different path than everyone was a lot
lonlier than I thought not only did my
friends not end up in Chicago but it was
hard to explain how I was struggling
doing something I loved when everyone
else was working a corporate job two
months in it was clear that my role at
the company was diminishing and the
creative freedom I was promised was
taken away by office politics and for
the first time I felt myself falling out
of love with the creative game
[Music]
although I was doing my passion for a
living I quickly felt lost and alone
just going through the motions every day
and soon enough my struggles became
apparent at
work hey Justin hope you're doing well
man unfortunately I don't think this is
working out and the company is moving
towards a different direction we value
citizenship here at and we no longer
feel like you're a good fit here so as
of today you're terminated from the
company you can pick up your stuff from
the office next week and I'll give you
two
[Music]
weeks although I felt relieved from
being set free I thought I failed and
perhaps I wasn't ready to take on such
heavy
responsibilities but worse for the first
time I picked up a camera there was no
creative spark left in me see when you
spend 8 hours a day working on ideas
that you have no control over you're
bound to be burnt
out so here I was 9 months until my
return trip no job no game plan just a
few months of savings and the looming
possibility that this was the end of my
creative career
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
what scares you
more failing or knowing the outcome
realizing you didn't try hard enough
[Applause]
I think back a lot about why I didn't
make it in basketball while I left the
game as much as anyone I had this
terrible fear of losing and I would
always mentally crumble whenever I
played against people better than
me instead of taking my losses as a
learning experience I thought about it
as
failure and I was afraid the players
around me would judge me for failing
over and over again but the more I lived
the more I realized
not only does everyone lose at some
point but most people don't care about
your failures as much as you do and
that's when I realized the ones that
truly fail are the ones that never allow
themselves
too sure 14-year-old me could have used
some more hours in the wait room or a
better
handle but what he really needed was a
change of perspective
[Music]
just before I was about to accept that
this is the end I took one last deep
dive through my hard drive fill with all
my work which helped me put things in
perspective not only have I improved so
much in such a short time but my life
has also become so much richer in
experience over the last 2 and a half
[Music]
years however over the last few months
I became so Tunnel Vision on turning my
passion into a full-time job that I lost
sight on the bigger dreams I had for
myself freelancing fulltime shooting
music videos for big artists working
with my favorite Brands and one day
stepping onto the hardwood of an NBA
floor that last dream was never going to
take me there and being fired does not
make me a failure the only way I fail
was if I stop chasing my dreams right
now knowing I didn't try hard enough
like I did with
basketball I thought back on the pain of
never making that high school team and I
owed it to my old self to not make the
same mistake and once I realized I had
nothing more or lose the picture became
so
[Music]
[Applause]
clear it was the perfect time to try
freelancing full-time work on my
creative style and see more of the world
like I always
envisioned with 9 months left on the
timer I was determined to figure it out
and if I do take the return ticket I was
going to leave with no
[Music]
[Music]
regrets being in Chicago had its
advantages I knew it would be easier for
me to stand out here compared to or New
York so immediately I started making my
way around the city reaching out to
friends and taking whatever I could to
get my feet off the ground events clubs
shows parties behind the scenes for sets
some were paid some weren't but no
matter of the opportunity I made it a
goal to push my creative boundaries
further than everyone else around me
trial and error became the norm and
while I actively took inspiration from
my favorite filmmakers I always added my
own original flare on top embracing this
idea of steal like an artist concept
which argues that nothing we create is
truly original they're all iterations of
something we've seen in the past but the
best artists build upon what's created
before because what even is our own
unique style I think it's an
interpretation of our own experiences
emotional connections and all the art
forms we
consume and that's what makes each and
every one of us different
as I started posting passion projects
and networking around the city people
started noticing in February I directed
my first music video in March I worked
on my first film sets in April I shot
for my first Big Brand and in May I even
got flown out to California to work with
an artist every month was something new
and the progress I made started becoming
a parent but there was still one problem
I was still burning through my savings
and in the 4 months until my return
ticket expires I had to figure out
things financially if I wanted to stay
on this
[Music]
track as the economy stagnated I was
told that my return ticket to corporate
was delayed for another 4 months
although I was excited for the extra
time to figure things out the reality is
as a freelancer the fear of running out
of work never goes away and I wasn't
sure if I could make it through the
extra four
months oh wait I didn't turn a dig
cam one
more I took this feeling of uncertainty
and channeled it into my creative
style which became a refle ction of how
I felt at this point in my
life I'm at the center of this chaos
constant but always changing trying to
find myself am miss this evolving
World some might call it luck but I
think it's fate because without this
extra bit of fear from the delay I don't
know if I would have experienced the
biggest moment of my
career Justin Shen is a freelance
videographer and photographer here in
Chicago does some incredible work take a
look at this video he posted on Tik Tok
he calls it elements of
[Music]
Chicago in a month the video Hit 5
million views and for a brief 17 seconds
I felt like the whole world had their
eyes on something I made
[Applause]
I'll inspired by my fast and chaotic
life in the city elements in Chicago
would change everything for me my once
deserted inbox was filled to the brim
and every new opportunity was the
reassurance I needed to know that I'm
starting to be on the right path but the
best part was getting noticed by some of
the directors and creators I've been
heavily inspired by along this journey
without them I probably wouldn't be
where I'm at today
[Applause]
[Music]
in the following months I continue to
experiment creatively while wasting no
time putting my business school
knowledge to use I learned how to do my
own Contracting invoicing negotiating
accounting and my new LLC became the
heartbeat of my opportunities from all
over the world from making elements of
London for the NFL editing parts of the
music video for calling by Metro booming
to covering events like laala palooza
Formula 1 Electric Zoo each project was
not only a creative challenge but a
glimpse of the Endless experiences I've
unlocked through following this crazy
dream of
[Music]
mine but just as everything was coming
together I once again ran into some
growing
[Music]
pains because elements of Chicago will
be the last video I made without any
expectations
[Music]
although I was living out my dream the
attention and workload gradually became
overwhelming the more I looked at other
people's work the more I started
wondering was I really as good as people
keep hyping me up to
be with 60,00 th000 new eyes on me I
became so worried about living up to
expectations that the creative momentum
I've been building for the last 9 months
suddenly turned into a painful
burnout so what did I end up
doing I couldn't help if feel like I
wasn't in control of which direction my
train was
going so I ended up taking the return
ticket back to corporate
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
what is the purpose of life and why do
we
[Music]
create it wasn't until I stumbled upon
this Japanese concept called iy guy that
I was able to grasp this heavy question
iy guy is the intersection of what you
love what you're good at what you can be
paid for and what the world
needs when we find our iy guy we find
our reason to
live I ended up spending a lot of time
soul searching after my blow up because
although I thought I found the
intersection of myy guy I didn't feel
truly happy
in the book The creative act there's a
quote that says the object isn't to
create art it's to be in that wonderful
state that makes art
inevitable this quote really struck a
chord with
me after a lot of self-reflection I
realized that for the whole journey I've
been so focused on advancing my creative
career that I often neglected other
important parts of my life eating
healthy sleeping early catching up with
friends and just My overall well-being
often took a backseat to my creative
Endeavors and through this quote I
realized that iy guy isn't actually felt
directly from any of our actions rather
it's a result from all the subconscious
decisions we make in other words
reaching our goals can make us
temporarily happy but the trajectory of
our journey is what really fulfills our
purpose so over the last few months I've
taken
aing old hobbies and going back to my
roots using my camera to document life
[Music]
again so no I didn't actually leave the
creative world to go into corporate
I'm still working on Creative projects
my passion for the game is as strong as
ever in reality I just really needed a
break from all the
madness don't get me wrong blowing up
was still the best thing to ever
happened to me but ever since I
graduated all I've really thought about
was videos and art and being creative
and as much as I loved every step of it
it was hard for me to give myself a
break corporate actually felt like the
perfect place to mentally reset learn
business skills and reconfigure the
trajectory of my creative career and
turns out helping other people drive
their train helps you better see the
flaws of your own not only is there more
structure in my life but I realized how
much I actually missed being around a
lot of people my
age so glad we've almost made it so sad
they had to
[Music]
why why do you
create dude so many reasons
um to make money and get it's fun makes
feel happy to give someone a feeling
that inspired me once and capture it cre
to be inspired by people like you
Jus once you start figuring yourself out
you'll naturally attract the people who
are just like you
but you
got your own kind of
music for the longest time the
loneliness from freelancing made me
think that perhaps I become more
introverted as time goes on but over the
last few months I've realized that I
just haven't found the right people
until now when I got an invite from
Creator
camp this Camp brought together 25
like-minded strangers for our week long
creative Retreat even though we're all
on different trajectories being around
these people not only gave me a level of
comfort and understanding that I haven't
felt on the longest journey but also a
rejuvenated sense of ambition especially
to work with more
people so what's next for me for now I
have the best side hustle in the world
but I don't think I'll be in corporate
for very long because I've set new
dreams for myself I still want to direct
music videos with big artists and work
with my favorite Brands but I also want
to start a creative agency somewhere
down the line to work on more ambitious
projects but more importantly surround
myself with more like minder creative
souls and without experiencing all these
people around me at creater Camp I just
never saw how it was all
[Music]
possible because when you find the right
people in life you realize that there
was nothing wrong with you all this
time when I first started making this
video 4 months ago I wanted this journey
to have a fairy tale ending like all
movies do I'd never work a 9 to5 in my
life and I keep fulfilling my dream of
working in a creative field
fulltime but the moment I went into
Consulting I realized that there was no
perfect ending and that's okay because
not only does everyone have their own
trajectory to their own goals dreams but
this is also just the start of my
journey these past few years have shown
me how unpredictable life can be and I
think as long as we're willing to brace
the unknown and make the most out of
every stage in life then we'll be
surprised with whatever result life
brings us because in retrospect the real
happiness I found this year wasn't from
the views or followers or even the cool
projects but rather overcoming a lot of
my fears to discover who I am and
finally do all the things I always
wanted to
I changed my hair for the first time in
my life I got closer with my family and
especially my sister and I grew out of
my shell to find people in different
cities that will probably be my lifelong
friends so I hope my story can inspire
you to seek out the answers to your own
questions CU we really don't have
forever we live our 20s once and you'll
learn so much more about life and
yourself through a difficult path than
whatever happens on an easy
one and what's life without figuring out
what we're truly capable of so take the
risks you've always wanted to because
