I've found that being a performer isn't just about the talent. That's a given for most. You have to know how to properly articulate your objectives, movements and motives. But also as a producer or director it's important to know why you are doing what you are and keeping it as specific as possible.
Last weekend, I started videotaping for my promotional video for 'Oleanna' on Kickstarter. I know exactly how I feel about the piece and what I want to say but sometimes it just doesn't come out right. I'll have to do some more recording...
People will question your every motive in life today & forever but I'm finding out that if you can articulate properly what you have to say now it can do a great service to your mental intelligence and your artistic integrity. Even if ten years from now you are wondering why you said it in the first place.
Sooooo.....
