• worried about lighting when having to film in long chunks
  • no thinking about the film as a whole but as scene by scene -> compile assets for the whole film and have a marathon filming session
  • use placeholders (story board screenshots or pictures of assets) in first draft of film
  • "runners high" - "artist high" where the work takes on its own identity and works with you
    • get to this place after working for a long, marathon, amount of time
  • first draft (low expectations) due in 1 week
