The Importance of Personal Projects

During this 1-hour video, we set aside our drawing tablets and put on our thinking caps. We discuss personal projects. What are they? Why start them? How to begin? Where will they take you?

Are you ready to think about personal projects?

 

Overview

In this video, we talk about our own personal projects—past, present, and future—and discuss what qualities make them beneficial to our creative growth. We also opened the discussion up so anyone could throw out ideas for a future project or share a story about a previous personal project.

As always, we don't edit away the beginning banter (yak-yak-yak!), so if you want to skip to the heart of the topic, fast-forward to the 9 minute, 30 second mark.

Thank you for purchasing this creative exercise!
