The Inspiration Challenge ▸ Create content for a creator who inspires you!

I was tagged by @notahumanperson to create a piece of content for an editor who inspires me. I created this piece for @woozi because their work inspired me to start creating edits and gifs more frequently. I saw how beautiful Yza's work was and I kept thinking to myself that I wanted to reach even a tiny bit of that talent. I hope you enjoy this little Woozi gif set.

Tagging: @dokyeomblr and @onlyboos and literally anyone else who wants to do it
