Questionaire
Why did you get involved in this project?
I found the idea very interesting and wanted to be involved in this collaboration.
Did the one week turn-around for the work help or hinder your creativity?
It helped me.
How did you feel about working on a project where you didn’t know who you were collaborating with?
I felt fine, I liked the mystery.
Has being involved in the project changed your thoughts on creativity?
I tried to be more abstract.
If you worked on several videos, what kept you coming back for more and how many did you do?
I provided two set of texts and shot for two projects, at the time I had some time on hand that I could dedicate to the work, however that was cut short by work deadlines.
