thnx monkey!
1.) interesting, but the two week timeframe would kinda mess things up. come to think of it they do go really well together. This thing tho is more like a study thing, the pitch is more like a full on thing. The promotion thing and the whole failure thing is not my style im not afraid of failing etc. This is really just sharing the idea because i think community makes things more fun. Personally im def gonna try this out no matter what im pretty headstrong like that.
2.) Im tending towards agreeing with u here, from a personal standpoint i cant see me being able to complete an entire world in 1 week however, the challenge to do it in that timeframe is tempting. The adding of an illustration to make it 2 weeks is really cool and challenging too even more so cos its not my thing usually. so yea 2 weeks is a good time and more balanced less intense. maybe when we are more skilled we can try 1 week. Imagine trying to do it in 1 day???
3.) Im 50/50 on this, for certain reasons. when u get the job u have to do what they want. u dont get to do what u want, this would be good practice to follow a brief as it is What u will be doing for ur entire career.
Also, following a brief forces u out of ur comfort zone. and yea the combination is really nice way to get new styles its common practice in hollywood. Think back to the future etc. (scifi +western)
However allowing complete control over the circumstances could be nice to see what ideas people come up with. although im shaky about this because of the said points above. I think things that u do normally will not help you become a more rounded artist. Having specific varied briefs will force u to do that.
Also eduardo i kinda agree, i think more creative freedom can be good, but TOTAL freedom and abscence of direction is rarely as powerful. I think the best designs come from restriction.
But that being said, that is just a couple of the thoughts i have on the idea and im open to u guys views. Wut do u guys think?
