Originally, I started my YouTube channel, 'Miss Cbenav', to document the process of my webcomic series via sped-up videos with personal commentary, otherwise known as a Speed-draw, which was the main focus of my channel for a while.
However, over time, I explored the platform's possibilities, covering quizzes, trying out animatics, and live streams. Thanks to my experience in animatics, I've managed to become a returning animator, for the psychology-based YouTube Channel, 'Psych 2 Go'.
Having a channel led to an unexpected journey into an art medium I'd never ventured otherwise. I plan to expand my horizons by seeing where it goes from here.
