Ooooooooh! Great timing of this article! Im seating in the plane to Milan and this upcoming weekend I will be exploring Tuscany seaside for that particular reason! Personal project on film!!!!
Im about to read it during the flight and off we go driving and exploring Italian landscapes, towns, villages - no particular plan, just drive ahead and look for images 😁
Thanks for doing this... I am blown away. I'm on the run to go do a drone project for an antebellum home up the road from me about 40 miles, so I just skimmed over the article... but already has my mind racing with ideas. (I'm downloading this and will study this extensively and return to it often.) I love the authenticity angle... the "portfolio of our truest voice" - that really resonates. I started exploring some of your client's examples too. Truly good stuff Don, thanks for responding and doing so, so quickly!

Absolutely.
I am a huge evangelist for personal projects; both as a catalyst for new work, but also to keep shooting and creating.
Nice piece Don. I always encourage any creative to have at least one personal project on the side exactly for everything that you list here!
Thanks Xavi.
From a personal standpoint, these projects are necessary for growth and maturity of our work.
From a practical stance, they are absolutely necessary to keep others interested in what we are doing.
It is a big, wide, fast world out there. Staying on top of our game should be job one.
Excellent food for thought. Thank you.
Love this post. Thanks Don.
