Probably just teenage problems
So I have this passion for videography/photography, basically the whole visual creative arts sector. I'm planning on buying a higher quality camera then I have and whatnot and I'm even thinking of proposing to film school events and such with a degree of cinematism.
Long story short, my main friend circle of 3 close knits ditched me(for absolutely no reason and I still haven't gotten explanation) because of 1 guy who decided he hates me. (We're all 16 if that is relevant) I'm not the most popular person in my school, but a few know about my passion. Recently, the new trio (they brought a new friend in their trio after ditching me) started posting this like mini-series almost of content that was more meme than anything. But it had very cool camera work, and posted by one of the friends in the trio who didn't really take a stance when I got ditched if we could make more similar-styled content using my brother's camera(which is very cinematic) and he accepted. (He also knew about my passion) but never spoke to me about it again until he posted another video. Turns out the one who switched up on me convinced the poster not to include me at all and took their third friend's dad's camera(which is the exact same model, not relevent to the story tho) to film it instead. Then the poster had the audacity to hop on a call thst I was in and asking for help colorgrading which I gave help with as I didn't know what had happened by that point. He told me about how they had so much difficulty operating the camera which I reminded him wouldn't have had happened if he respected his words because I know very well how to. Anyways this is just a really small recap of the situation.
The problem is their trio is more popular, thus more liked at school and I can't expose their hypocrisy to anyone cuz even my friends like their posts and support them. I'm still passionate about that, and to be honest I want to be seen for what I do so obviously I'd be interested in posting the stuff I make once I get my own camera but if I were to do I'd be seen as a copier even though I've wanted to do this way before they even knew what a sensor is...
Not even looking for anything I'm kind of stuck in this position where I cannot do anyrhing. Sorry if my wording is strange english is not my first language.
