BASED ON ACTUAL EVENTS: COLOR VOL. I

In an industry built on hurry up & wait, you hope the enjoyment of the waiting offsets the anxiety of the hurry-up-ing. In other words, it’s nice to laugh.

It’s been a while since I’ve written to you, and I’m grateful for this moment to do so.

In our distinct industry, our shared world of storytelling, it’s easy to get lost in deadlines and logistics. Creativity can become a grind and a hustle.

When was the last time you were creative just for fun? Just to feel the paint gliding on the brush or the yarn slide off your finger. I won’t tell you how to live your life, but I will encourage you to do silly work. Work whose only audience is yourself. And even if you don’t think it’s good, that’s beside the point.

The first time a movie made me cry I was four years old. To the best of my knowledge, it was also the first time I saw a movie in theaters. At the risk of sounding too much like Nicole Kidman at an AMC, I will just say this: there’s a reason cinemas stay in business.
