This is the first post in a series that will walk through the process of creating a commissioned, full length work in a largely unexplored medium. It is both terrifying and exciting trying to do something new in a creative field; this particular process felt like forming a movie, an ad campaign, and a graphic novel all at the same time.
I learned a tremendous amount, and my goals in this blog series are threefold:
- to remind myself of what I learned
- to help others in similar fields to learn alongside me
- to give some really fun 'behind the scenes' context for "the Joplin undercurrent".
