In this 2014 GDC session, visual designer Peter Chan discusses how artists of all skill levels can rediscover their creative drive even in the face of adversity.
It's crucial for artists to be able to keep a steady flow of new ideas and inspirations in order to feed the desire to create, but what happens when real life gets in the way of those ambitions?
In this 2014 GDC session, visual designer Peter Chan (Monkey Island 2, Grim Fandango) discusses how artists of all skill levels can rediscover their creative drive even in the face of adversity.
Chan introduces a question which leads to the core of his talk: "What feeds your creativity? How do you produce art, how do you come up with original ideas and thoughts when you've got busy brain or you're running on empty?"
Artists curious about how to maintain creativity through all sorts of challenges can now go back and watch the talk completely free via the official GDC Vault YouTube channel!
