BAD COLLABORATIONS - Episode 20
from Film Pro Productivity · host Carter Ferguson
On today’s show, I will be talking about a subject that no one ever seems to discuss but it’s one that creatives have to endure perhaps more often than most. Whereas I can admit that sometimes collaborating on a venture can be awesome, there are times when it just ISN’T a good idea for productivity or for your sanity or career or goals or bank balance to do so. I’ll also discuss specific types of collaborator that you MUST learn to avoid.For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/ Quotes:“When I was a kid, there was no collaboration; it's you with a camera bossing your friends around. But as an adult, filmmaking is all about appreciating the talents of the people you surround yourself with and knowing you could never have made any of these films by yourself.” - Steven SpielbergHarry Truman once said that "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."James McAvoy - “Filmmaking is a miracle of collaboration.”Indian spiritual master, Amit Ray - “Collaboration has no hierarchy. The Sun collaborates with soil to bring flowers on the earth."
