Part 2: Can You Improvise On Everything? - Building My Second Studio
https://3speak.tv/watch?v=draysax/ksscgwvl
Some days back I shared lessons I learnt from the journey of building my first ever studio. It was an interesting ride and the lessons learned were very instrumental to building my next studio.
I spent about a year in this space, utilising the most of it towards the end of my stay there.
After I finished my 1 year internship as a medical houseofficer, I was faced with a dilemma of choices because I had to move locations.
The problems with the first option are however numerous. Having built a studio and acquiring the equipment I now had, it would be a problem bringing in so much equipment into my parents' house.
More so, I had been out of home predominantly for over 5 years - creating a usable space was going to be difficult. My room had been converted into something else🤣.
Another big problem was that my parents' house is located far away from town where power supply is stable. It won't also be easy to take clients to such a far place.
As uneasy as the second choice felt, it was my best option, especially if I found one in the heart of the city.
Lucky me!
A friend of mine got me a good place right in the city centre. It was a 2 room self-contained apartment. It was a perfect choice, though small.
I basically selected one of the rooms as my studio space while the other would be my living area.
In this video, I describe the thought process behind setting up the studio and it blended into the final result of the studio I use today for all my creative works.
After cleaning the space, I had to ensure the painting of the room which a friend of mine helped me with. The initial paint on the walls were quite strong and we had to do 2 layers of painting.
Here was how the room looked like before painting.
Once I had the painting out of the way, I came up with a plan, and drawing from the lessons I learned from my former studio, I ensured I included these considerations in my new studio:
I am still learning from this current studio I use and I'm sure there will be a lot of new lessons by the time I upgrade to perhaps a bigger studio.
The current space is quite small though we'll confined as compared to my former studio where the same room doubled as a studio and living area.
I hope you could a thing or 2 from what I have managed to build so far.
Do you think the improvisations turned out well in the general outlook of the studio space?
What could I have done differently?
Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
Thank you for watching/reading!
