fuckyeahcliffordmattis:
Really interesting ideas, and definitely something I’ve noticed. When I impose time limits on myself, whether imagined or real, I tend to get a lot more done or practice much more intensely. Definitely a must read for anyone that does creative things.

Living The Dream

AD Diaries: How to pick your 2nd AD →
assistantdirector:
Val doesn’t believe me but for 9 years, I didn’t have a consistant 2nd AD.
-The 1st one wanted to be a grip.
- The next one racked up a $6000 phone bill and desperately tried to pawn it off on production. (“The actors wanted to check out their AOL accounts!”)
