Creative Resources:
Exploring new cities and places by foot, making time to rewatch movies that emotionally and artistically recharge me, early a.m. cardio to clear the head, KCRW’s The Business podcast (which does have a lot to say about the creative process!), experiencing all forms of art — narrative or otherwise — and seeing how it seeps into the audiovisual (or just audio or just visual) work that I make.
