IF YOU MISS FEELING, YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT.
FEELING is the core, the center, the burning Truth of your creative project.
FEELING is what you NEED, WANT, MUST, HAVE TO, GOT TO, RIGHT NOW, YES,
SPEAK!
Go ahead, right now while you read this, SHOUT IT OUT, HISS, DANCE, FREAK OUT, SING - move that gorgeous body, pen in hand, hit the page, write the truth, strip your mask, let the camera see your soul -
Share your FEELING with the world.
THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE BORN FOR.
Your project lives or dies by the strength, passion and clarity of the FEELINGS from scene to scene. But how do we access FEELING? What even is it? "Is it going to kill me? Better hide," we tell ourselves. "Make something that SELLS. I'll get to my passion project, later, when I have money, free time, in a cabin, all by myself - when I have space..."
Take that space right now.
Take FEELING.
Listen to it in the back while you're doing all the other things, or go full into it -
FEELING supports you. The Lab gets in and sticks. It encourages you to dive deeper when you're afraid or confused. The force of our FEELING is EPIC. Thats what Art is for!
