Casey Neistat is stopping his vlog
« on: November 20, 2016, 04:24:59 PM »

I discovered him through his snowboarding video which was entertaining, yet I can't get through any of his other videos. There's something annoying about him.

Not surprised and can't blame him.
The daily blogging pressures are more than anyone can imagine if they don't blog daily.
But I can't even imagine the daily vlogging pressures. Makes me shudder to even think about it.

He says just the opposite. It became not challenging for him.
I'm not who you think I am.

I.E. He was just going through the motions. That happens to every blogger.
The pressure is to make things exciting. That isn't easy.

He needs a following that keeps getting in trouble so then he can fix it for them.  ;)
"LESS IS MORE" It is the cumulative effect that kills deals!!! How many times do I have to say this?  >:(

I don't like his style but I give him a ton of credit for stopping the project once he felt that he had fallen into a formula. So many artists just can't walk away from the money and abandon a project while it's still popular (to wit, the whole concept of "jumping the shark.")

I give Seinfeld tons of credit too for the same reason.

You saw the context in which I compared them.

Creative freedom my foot. He was bought out by CNN.

There was obviously something. Noone stops the consistent income he had for "creative freedom".

No such thing as creative freedom when you're owned by big media/banks/whatever.

Just look at TPG et. al.

Yeah, he's gonna "share “timely and topical videos” and start conversations around current events".

If he was obnoxious now, just wait until he starts pontificating about politics ::).

Bill Watterson for starters.

Bill Watterson for starters.
"This isn't as hard to understand as people try to make it. By the end of ten years, I'd said pretty much everything I had come there to say. It's always better to leave the party early. If I had rolled along with the strip's popularity and repeated myself for another five, ten, or twenty years, the people now "grieving" for Calvin and Hobbes would be wishing me dead and cursing newspapers for running tedious, ancient strips like mine instead of acquiring fresher, livelier talent. And I'd be agreeing with them. I think some of the reason Calvin and Hobbes still finds an audience today is because I chose not to run the wheels off it. I've never regretted stopping when I did"
