City LifeCity LifeMalleability or Speed, Pick One (Part I)- April 26, 2008 All media should be to talent as clay to the sculptor or pen and paper to the cartoonist.In the right hands, these media have two key attributes: malleability - they can be turned into anything the media will allow - and speed - they can be converted to consumable artifacts very quickly. The sculptor can produce statuary in a matter of days; the (non-animated) cartoonist can churn out panels to match the pace of a daily newspaper.A gifted songwriter armed with a guitar can turn out at least one.http://www.jroller.com/bobfoster/entry/malleability_or_speed_pick_one |
