100000% agree. If I jump into the edit straight after shooting I’m always more excited about it and more creative ideas come whilst it’s fresh in my mind. If I leave it a few weeks after starting multiple other projects, going back to that edit just feels like a chore that needs to be done. Stress builds up and then it’s very hard to match the same creative creative flow..

[@JoshuaKirkNZ]

Totally. Even after posting this video i'm still fighting to keep this balance going haha. If you're not super intentional it'll get away on you.

[@orainethomas]

Completely agree, thanks for sharing 👍

This is literally my intention for this year, dialling in the work flow to spread not so long a timeframe. Sometimes The project has to drag because I can only acquire footage in some slow drip manner, but that’s usually because it is a longer documentary piece with many interviews, etc. Smaller commercial projects like you’re describing, when I do those, everything you said is bang on. Short turn around makes a happier client and if it’s good, always impresses. You feel better for delivering. Then it’s done and off your table. Having a gazillion unfinished projects is incredibly taxing on the brain and the heart, even.

[@markusrydberg]

Great video. Will make an effort trying to put this tactic in to my practice next year. I feel I am joggling to many projects at the same time and that makes up for a very long runway until I get back in to the projects vision if I am leaving them on the shelf for to long.. Keep it up! /Markus

[@JoshuaKirkNZ]

Hey Marcus, It's a struggle for sure balancing the shelf life of projects! Keep going :-)
