259: I Hired Myself

Constraints

Creative constraints often shape the creative process, as Casey Liss explores through his video production journey. He finds that setting deadlines and having limited time to capture footage pushes him to be more productive and creative 1. Marco Arment humorously suggests that Casey could hire himself to ensure he meets these deadlines, highlighting the importance of self-imposed constraints 1.

I really need that time constraint, like, when I only have a week to get all the footage I need. I really need to make it count.
