Katz, Ch. 1-3

While reading, I found it interesting just how much a production designer does for a film. I had already known that their job was difficult by the vague understanding that they manage and coordinate all the departments to work together and get to the final product. I just didn't realize how much they contributed to each departments work.

The term Visualization stood out to me because it's something that I generally don't do. It is mostly because of a sense of perfectionism that I have trouble pausing myself to really think about my work until I'm done with it, and by that point it's too late for me to go back and fix things. This is definitely a thing I want to work on to improve myself as an artist and ultimately as a person too.

The sounds gets hollower as he moves away from the bird.
