I let that sensation build whatever component begs to be built first, be it a specific puppet, a sentence that will later be incorporated into the script, or a piece of the set. I try to capture the seed of that initial inspiration, and build from it. This way, I always have something to refer back to, to remind me of why Im doing what Im doing. |
