Transcript excerpt

Hi. I'm Kova. I make videos about and better one year ago, I was still a student in college, and I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life. Growing up, I wanted to be an artist. I sold baby dragons on DeviantArt. That's how deep it got. But somewhere along the way, stopped believing in art. That was until my senior year. This is literally my filming better. I started making videos from my dorm room, and I fell in love with art again. After three months of no one seeing my stuff, the eleventh video ended up blowing up. I hit in a day and was like, maybe Instagram could truly be the start of my artistic dreams. Recently, I graduated from Stanford with my computer science degree, but decided to quit my new job to make videos full time. We're often told that creativity isn't worth chasing, but what if it's calling you? Would you answer it? Because who no? It may just change your life.
