In short, I did my first live.
There you go, I can say it, I did my first live. And if for some of you it may be trivial, for me it means a lot!
It's not easy to start like that face-cam, in front of you, facing possible questions, live, with no "room for error". Funny exercise for me, rather discreet or a little hidden in my own little world. Cold, therefore, I wanted to share with you my feelings after this little challenge that I do not regret having undertaken.
It's May 31, 2022, that's it, it's shared on my Instagram feed, on the occasion of the launch of my new collection, I announce that I will be in book, at 8:30 p.m., on Monday June 6. Hitting the “send” button already gave me a little heat. But this time it’s said, so as someone else would say, “there’s more to it!” ". A mixture of stress and impatience then mixes with my daily rhythm and the days pass quite quickly before the arrival of the D-day. Loads of questions rush through my head “Am I going to make it? Will people tune in? Will people ask me questions? I'm not going to babble too much? How do I dress? Do I limit it in terms of duration? How do I attack? Do I wait for questions from the start or do I present my collection directly? »… it’s flying in all directions! Me, being live, in front of you, is not exactly my habit. If you've known me for some time now, you've probably noticed that I'm more the type to present my creations than to present myself!
Anyway, it's 8:00 p.m., I check that everything is ok, the good weather is here, that's a good sign. I have a few notes (as you may have noticed at the beginning!), but few in the end, the goal is also that it is natural or even that this little intimate moment between you and me is guided by simplicity and spontaneity . This is really what I wanted, quite honestly. I will not go over all the content of this live since it is in replay here and if you wish, it is possible to watch it (if you ever want a little taste anyway, there is a bit of my life, my journey but also and above all a lot of my new collection).
I rather wanted, through these few words to express all my gratitude to you and finally to make this little precious moment last longer that I took so much pleasure in sharing with you - those I already knew and vice versa. -versa and those who surely discovered me more intimately on this occasion. This was indeed an opportunity for some of you to associate a face, a story, even a voice with my brand of ceramics. Presenting this new collection filled with Love to you was tinged with emotion for me as you certainly felt – (If not, quickly rewatch the passage around the 22nd minute!...).
The moral of all this is... wow, how quickly it actually goes by! Is it really over yet? Quite honestly, I didn't see the time passing. And I think, well I hope, that you liked this exchange! I didn't expect so much presence (there was even my banker!), little words, poke Justine , SuzanneBijoux , my friend Prisca and all the others, hello, etc. Although a little stressful at the start, it is ultimately a very enriching exercise because it allows you to create a little “real” in all the virtuality of Instagram and social networks and this human contact with you has done me a lot of good. … Anyway, I did a live performance and I think I'm going to do it again!
PS: Thank you again my @Damien for pushing me a little to my limits and encouraging me to get started!
