Jackie (Sakuchan) here! It’s been awhile since we had a Speak Up, but now that the news is rolling in and giving us surprises each week, we can actually put to rest some of our speculations and at the same time, let our minds wander off to think even deeper into the KH story to come! So this time, I did something a little different. I thought I’d stir the pot a little and post a very well-worded question from one of our readers, Josh. He submitted a question (actually, this might count as multiple questions) that was too good to pass up. Read it and discuss away!

It’s not such a rare or miraculous concept: that video games, and specifically, Kingdom Hearts, can change people’s lives and lead them into life directions that could not have been foreseen. At a young age, Wes’ imagination was captured by his playthrough of KHI. That imagination quickly evolved into creative inspirations, and he soon was involved in the KH community, making and uploading his fan videos for a receptive audience who supported him in his pasttime. But it was just a pastime, a hobby for lazy afternoons, right?

Hardly realizing it, the previously simple hobby was becoming much more meaningful. A greater reality was unfolding. It is here that Wes shares his story about how he reached where he is today, a successful film editor laden with opportunities every day, and loving what he does. Every success story starts somewhere, sometimes in the least likely places…
