We recently connected with Angelo Reyes and have shared our conversation below.
Angelo, appreciate you making time for us and sharing your wisdom with the community. So many of us go through similar pain points throughout our journeys and so hearing about how others overcame obstacles can be helpful. One of those struggles is keeping creativity alive despite all the stresses, challenges and problems we might be dealing with. How do you keep your creativity alive?
As someone who has always been a creative, it has not been the easiest to always keep creativity alive.
I have been a creative for about ten years now.
The element of creativity allows for new perspectives to be formed as well as set a trend for inspiration.
With social media, it is easy to be able to set creative trends that will either inspire others to follow trends or to create new trends.
When I have felt a disconnection to my creativity in the past, I have always looked to find inspiration from others including other photographers, artists, fashions, and public figures. Through getting inspiration, these have been ways for me to continue keeping my creativity alive.
I also believe that by being yourself and not caring what others will say, can really help in one’s journey being a creative.
From being a content creator, to having a passion for photography and capturing moments, to loving fashion and the creativity that comes with it, and having a passion for the arts are my ways of continuing to keep my elements of creativity alive.
There are many ways that an individual can be a creative and you should never doubt yourself or think that just because someone else is doing something, does not mean that you can too.
One of the things that I have enjoyed about being a creative is being able to set the trend for others around me such as film photography and content creation.
I will always have elements of creativity to keep alive as I am still discovering myself and who I am as a creative individual.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I am a content creator and I help brands make video content for products that they are seeking to bring attention to and promote.
I have worked with a number of brands in which I have produced video content as well as photography content for their products.
Being a content creator is something that I have always wanted to do and I finally took the leap to start getting myself in front of the camera.
Although it was not easy at first, after getting comfortable being in front of the camera, recording myself, and posting on social media, this is when I broke through and knew that I could be able to be a content creator.
The most exciting thing about being a content creator is that it allows one to work from the comfort of wherever they are to create content for a brand or product.
If you are seeking a content creator to help you create content for your brand or a product, I gladly will be able to help you out and bring attention to your brand/product.
If interested, please email me and I can send over previous work samples: angelor.ugc@gmail.com
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Three qualities that have been the most impactful in my journey would be inspiration, personalization, and risk.
Being in creative elements, one should strive to be themself and leverage their own flair to things, not being scared of what an outcome can be and taking that risk, and knowing how to take inspiration from one thing and to turn it into your own.
How can folks who want to work with you connect?
I am open to collaborating with brands who are seeking to promote their products.
I am also open to collaborating with local businesses within LA County to promote their businesses.
I create video and photography content that can be used for promotional purposes.
