Zombie meeting

So, we had zombie meeting yesterday. It went pretty well. We figured out what props we needed and finished up the character designs. It pretty much took sitting down with the artist and describing this person until he drew the damn character.

I had a conversation with an artist one time about this project. He wasn't producing and I had to ask him why. He said to me, "You can't rush creativity." I yelled (but only for a moment), "You damn well can!" The truth is, you can. You do something often enough it gets easier. Plus, I'm not looking for genius. You can't rush genius. I'm just looking to get things done and done how I want them. I don't even want my artists' genius. I just want what I ask them to do done. Yeah, you could argue that I am relying on them to translate my vision, and I am, but that doesn't mean that it has to be done on their time and not mine.

I am holding a second audition this Saturday at the Earl. Hopefully holding at a public place instead of my house it will go better, especially since it is a lot more centrally located.

Wish me luck!
