“Fluency in any language requires use, and that applies to all personalities involved…director, contributor, and even viewer.”
Nice article! And the last sentence was very well put.
Especially considering the last person in your list, the viewer. I remember that during my Sound Design study I’ve sometimes been to subtle whilst using the language in a project and that didn’t really help the viewer understanding/feeling that new language I’d created. I’ve learned that starting early on and being bold are very important parts of the process.
It can be difficult, but never give up on the opportunity.
