<p> <a href="http://catchingsightfilm.blogspot.com.au/2013/09/everyone-is-creative.html">Read Our Most Recent Interview!</a></p> <p> In 2012 my partner and I started a blog about creativity and how sometimes it can cause an artist to suffer. You know the times, you didn't get that audition, or you're beating yourself up for not learning those lines properly or on time, or neither. Or that time the director told you how to perform but you just felt so uninspired and you didn't know what the director could possibly mean! And we all know the times after we've finished a gig and we sit back and think, "Right, that's the end of that, then. As soon as anyone sees that work of mine, I'll never get hired again!"</p> <p> Well, all artists hit that wall. Legend, Pen Densham, wrote a book called Riding the Alligator. You should buy it, it's inspired. As he described, it's the kind of book he would have wanted to read when he was starting out. So trust me when I say it's a book you'll want to read! Anyway, the point is that Pen hit a bajillion walls but what made him a successful writer, director and filmmaker is that he didn't give up! He was rejected probably more times than you and me combined, but he kept on going. </p> <p> And that's the message that the artists that have contributed to our blog want to get across. </p> <p> To be honest, the blog itself started as a forum to promote the film we were trying to get funding for: Catching Sight. The story of a little girl who catches a disease that gives her great talent but also makes her miserable. </p> <p> The film didn't get made... at the time. However, there's some discussion about it being resurrected as a more personal and refined project. Remember what I said about not giving up. </p> <p> So, visit my <a href="http://www.catchingsightfilm.blogspot.com.au">blog</a> and read the interviews with the amazing men and women that have contributed so far. You can contribute if you want. Just send me your email and I'll send you a new interview and let you know what else you might need for your spot in our blog!</p> <p> Whether you're an actor, dancer, filmmaker, writer, director, artist, graphic designer or photographer, there is a side of this discussion that will interest you. If there's not, let me know and we'll interview YOU!</p> <p> Peace. </p> <p> Molly </p>
