Rising Above the Ego Like a Giraffe - with Jim Rood

with Jim Rood - Lighting Designer/ Programmer RoodLD LLC

On this episode, we discuss how good design is absolutely invisible, the benefits and compromises of collaboration, dissecting show files, taking ideas too personally, when is it okay to work for free?, when to work for art sake and when to work for a paycheck, how big ideas need to be reshaped to fit the production, how to keep creativity available in a box of ideas, how to rely on professionals to do their jobs and a lot of discussion about giraffes.
