I have basic video editing software that I have been using to make videos for my music.  Problem is, I find the way I use this software to be not unique to me in style.  I use it to layer colors and text and images and such.  I know I am very inspired by you, but I don't know if what I am doing is copying you or just doing what I can with what I have.  It bothers me that the word copycat is being used by some people to describe how your style might be influencing others. But I dont know if it's bothering me because i know i should feel bad about not having an entirely original video aesthetic or if the word just doesnt seem fair to others who are doing their best with tools.   Making the music takes time, making the videos takes time, somehow this way of making videos just feels so intuitive.  Like it's the most effective and efficient way to make content that is of some quality. 
  I'm not sure how to feel about it.  Would you advise me to steer clear of this way of editing?  I get a bit panicky when I think of turning up the different dial because I dont know how to conceptualize another video style that feels like it has quality to it but doesnt take forever to make (using only my simple tools).  Am I screwed?  Part of me does feel bad because I feel like if I'm good enough I should know what to do about this problem.
all you need to do is rotate the waterfall of energy you have poured into this rumination, and instead direct it straight into the project
