Above the microscope

November 22, 2007

Everyone has thought about it before.

Atoms, microorganisms, humans, cities, countries, continents, planets, the universe, galaxies, etc.

Just like the final scene in "Men In Black" (that was it wasn't it?... and did I really just reference that??), I constantly am being reminded, not by any person neccesarily, to step back.  Reflect.  Calm down.  Look at the big picture.  It's one of the hardest parts of being an artist.  So many ideas.  So little time.  So many restrictions.  Not just artists, but many of my friends, some of them often labeled as over-achievers, have that focus... yet, we all need the balance of the finished product.

In the creative world, what really matters, is that people feel something with your finished product.

Thanksgiving.

Step back.

Stop filming for a moment, and watch your masterpiece.  

Just for a day.

There's a lot of beauty, isn't there?

Anything you'd like to edit?

Learn.  

Film again tomorrow, but make sure to watch your masterpiece from time to time.


Happy Thanksgiving.
