Let's Go Again: A Philosophical and Practical Guide for Indie Creatives

Auteur(s): Queens Bird Films
  • Résumé

  • This podcast is a philosophical and practical guide for the Independent Class. We are 21st Century indie artists. We ask big questions like "what is the artist’s role in society?", and we strategize for small ones like "how do I grow an audience when my posts reach about 5 people a day?" We tackle those ideas and everything in between. We make art that builds a new world — one powered by the people. On a film set, when a director wants to do another take, you often hear them say, let’s go again. It signals a chance to reset and keep trying to get the shot. Each episode is another chance for us to reset and figure out this path together, outside of the system and on our own terms.

  • S1E25 | What Gets Measured Gets Managed: The Systems that Make Fresh-to-Death Art
    May 2 2024

    There you are. Facing the cursor. Waiting for Lady Inspiration to strike. Knowing that your precious creative alone time was bought and paid for by racing through your tasks at work, ignoring calls from your mom, silencing the group chat, consuming illegal amounts of caffeine, and forgoing lunch.


    But now that you have the creative alone time? Nothing. Nada.


    Your brain is as empty as your ex's promises.


    You're in good company. It happens to the best artists. Consistently! Regularly! But the best artists have learned how to defend against it... with systems.


    In today's episode, we'll go through 6 systems, inspired by the Holland Codes, to help you structure your creative process so you can make that fresh-to-death art that breaks through and blows up.
