One of the challenges of being an artist is often the isolation brought by creating art on your own. Sometimes you can feel you’re on to something but you just don’t know how to bring your idea to the next level.
Other times a project might seem awesome one day, and a terrible idea the next. If you could just talk to somebody about it, it would all become more clear. You might have 4-5-6 ideas in your head. But which one would make the most sense to pursue?
With At First Sight we create a safe environment where artists can pick the brains of other professionals regarding projects they were considering creating. They want to bounce their ideas receive constructive feedback by you, our audience! So join us and help out!
