Creating Characters From Your Story’s Theme (Part 2) :: with Brian McDonald :: Paper Wings Show #29

Update: 2014-12-09

Description

Jedi master Brian McDonald is back with more revelatory perspectives that will challenge the way we think about visual storytelling.

In part one, Brian showed us how theme creates character and character creates theme.

Now, in part two, we discuss when to stop dreaming and start writing, how success can kill creativity, why style isn’t always a good thing, and why the students who struggle the most, often grow the most.

Oh! …and we have some big news: Lora’s going to be on TV!
