LIA Cast 43 - Roadblocks to Sharing

If you've ever started a post on your blog, Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr, and deleted it instead of hitting the "send" button, this one is for you.

Hot on the heels of our discussion on the value of iterating on ideas, we walk around the topics of self-editing, overpolishing an idea or project, and other roadblocks to publishing your work. Where is the line between refinining to perfection and the infinite cycle of self-editing? It's a talk on quantity vs. quality in the Lean Into Art style of topic exploration.

LIA Cast 42 - Iterations Breed Creativity

Don't Stick With Your First Idea.

Is this always true? Does the best idea always happen in the second, third, or fourth iteration of your project? Or does iterating on our projects yield other learning opportunities? It's a fun talk about the secrets unlocked through iterating on our character designs, story outlines, and other creative projects.

LIA Cast 41 - Role Models

This time we try to wrap our brains around the concept of the Role Model. Who do we admire, and why? We use some of our own Role Models as examples as we model the process of breaking down the specifics of what moves us in the actions of others, and how we attempt to assimilate that information with our own unique perspectives.
