The journey of each creative teaches so many things. When discussing about the journey of each of these panelists you’ll get to understand how to approach your own journey to become a creative.
Social Responsibility
Being a creative is not a selfish career. The best creative people out there always stand for what is right and always wait for an opportunity to show how they can reflect the society in their art form and bring about change. When setting out to create art, it is really important to understand the responsibility of ‘YOU’ as a creator.
Mindgames
What separates a good artist from the rest of the crowd is the game that goes on inside their mind. When you bring in 4 such people and put them in the same room, you get to understand how to train your brain to work for you and also reflect upon how you can create imagery, art or any kind of work that has meaning.
Technicality
One of the most important parts of evolving as a creator is understanding the technicality behind what you want to create. Each artist that you see in the panel reflect some kind of mastery in their field and that’s the reason they have been able to survive and create amazing work. Understand the behind the scene work of each of them will help understand how to shape our own working style.
Networking
Probably one of the most underrated parts of the journey of being a creative is connecting with the community, connecting with people, connecting with your audience. Learn how you can connect with people in order for your work to reach people.
