This was a really hard thing to keep in mind within these classes. The turn arounds were so quick and the processes were very different from what I was used to but since I had to put my work out there in order to fulfill the course there were moments where I felt like I needed to let go of this idea that all my art has to come pre-baked with all this inspired meaning. I found even in my first project where I co-wrote a script about a tinder date-turned kidnapping-turned love story, that sometimes if I let go of every single detail being intentional it gives me the freedom to create more efficiently and have some lighter-hearted work. Eventually the meaning and intention inevitably bleeds into the work as the idea is refined but it didn't have to hold the foundation. ]]> 2023-03-27 04:51:48 UTC https://padlet.com/orenederi/1hkvmpuntu1yyoe1/wish/2532467129 orenederi https://padlet.com/orenederi/1hkvmpuntu1yyoe1/wish/2532476217 I talked about before how I never really saw fame as a goal to aspire to and wanted the appreciation that I receive to be for the work itself and not for me the worker. I think part of me has made this an idea and a mantra because it feels like the "right" or "humble" thing to do. Because I think at the end of the day attention is fun. Being able to take credit for an idea like making our devised piece an interpretive dance to one of my own songs is exciting. I think it is rooted in a desire to prove myself as an artist, but I am working on shedding that insecurity. I suppose I say that I don't desire adoration because I aspire to actually be that humble. But ultimately I find myself too tied to my work that I take it too seriously sometimes which made playing little devising games extraordinarily difficult. ]]> 2023-03-27 04:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/orenederi/1hkvmpuntu1yyoe1/wish/2532476217 orenederi https://padlet.com/orenederi/1hkvmpuntu1yyoe1/wish/2532485135 I think I was a little disappointed by the design section of the class. I was really excited to learn more about how collaboration in design works and to put that practical work on its feet the way I had in the other sections, but most of if not all of the work in that section was individual. In my original statement I talked about Avatar the Last Airbender, one of my favorite shows in the world. A project that was co-written, co-produced, and animated by brilliant teams of animators. But this show retained a clear vision and beautifully meaningful narrative and I feel like in most story telling which is an inherently more visual medium than any other medium nowadays, that design is a large part and also my weakest area. I really hope to see the opportunities where I can lean on somebody with better abilities to help communicate a grand vision. ]]> 2023-03-27 05:06:01 UTC https://padlet.com/orenederi/1hkvmpuntu1yyoe1/wish/2532485135
