It is a full bound leap over the side with arms flung to the air, not knowing whether you will end up swimming in a river of crocodiles or resting on Harvey Weinstein’s yacht with a glass of Krug. Every creative project always has a moment when you have to leap off and trust that the end result will be better for having leapt, be it a success or  a ‘failure’ than some once half dreamed project that you never really got moving on or properly finished piece of work that never actually sees the light of day. (You can listen to the podcast version by just pressing the arrow or here are the main points below) There is also the fear of your life choices: I am happy with the choices I have made to be a professional creative. Occasionally though the instability, the insecurity of the next job, the fact as a freelance actress and performer my career and income is always uncertain, the fear may creep in. My father may never get over the fact that if I had not left my bond dealer career at 26 (I used to work in the City – the London equivalent of Wall Street) along with my Manolo’s and large pay packet I would be very wealthy now and probably have a serious London apartment paid for.  However I may have to move out of the wonderful place I live in  two months time and the mere thought of London flat hunting with it’s ever rising rents and the fact I don’t want to get a ‘proper job’ with a guaranteed income means there is more uncertainty than ever. In rational moments I know I have made the right choices, that this is where I need to be for my career and my heart space  but late at night fear creeps in! The fear gets worse also as I contemplate my next projects, especially the film I want to make based on my new solo theatre show that I am workshopping next month at the Lost Theatre in London.  It may be terrible: terribly filmed, acted, conceived, written.. I could go on with all the negatives.   However as outlined in Five Regrets of The Dying, a book from a nurse in palliative care, the number one regret of those at the end of their life is I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.   I am ‘lucky’ that  my life tends to support itself, the projects  I have done and the network of people around me always gives me fresh hope and impetus to go on. This happened again today as I have had two screenings of films I am in over the last 24 hours: Pearl which premiered in Forest Hill which was a lovely short I did last year directed and written by Nick Barrett. Trailer below. (It is to have its big screen premiere in a couple months at Crouch End Arts Cinema) Pearl trailer from CORPOREAL Films on Vimeo. Closer To Home (kickstarter details here)  should have premiered at the BFI directed by Bhavithrah Satkunarasa & produced by James Lyndon today along with the other graduation projects of UAL, however the sound was not ready so the film had to be pulled at the last minute. I had already organized to go to the BFI and was meeting a friend who wanted some creative coaching and inspiration advice beforehand so I went to watch the other films despite not getting to watch the film I was in. It was wonderful to see so many young female directors, producers and writers all graduating. After the  BFI screening I got chatting to Thomas Stoppel who was brilliant  in one of the films ‘Things I Do For You’ However not only is he an actor, he also has produced, written and directed short films and feature films.  I asked him how he got into making films given he really is such a great actor and has a great look as well, enough of a combination that many in such a position would rest on their laurels and wait for work to come to them.

Imagine getting a letter from the Royal Shakespeare Company saying ‘I hope you consider the RSC a good creative home for your work’ – Movement Director over 50 RSC Productions A Portrait Artist. Her painting of Michael Boyd is in the Portrait Collection of the RSC and the archive at the National Portrait Gallery, despite starting painting for the first time since school while Movement Directing at the RSC. Associate Artiste at Shared Experience Having given up the arts at school and then started taking ballet lessons while reading biology she went to become a Physical Theatre Performer and Choreographer in Award winning groundbreaking DV8 ’My Body Your Body’ & ‘Deep End’ and with Shared Experience in such shows as ‘Mill On The Floss’ Asthanga Yoga queen Some links to DV8 DV8 Deep End that Liz did DV8 Your Body My Body These are some pictures she has done of Patrick Robinson who is a very established actor. He was cast as understudy for Romeo for the RSC in 1980 as landmark casting and has had a 24 year span in ‘Casualty’. He also had great success in BBC ‘Strictly Come Dancing in December 2014 getting to the last five. The big take away from this  is “Just do it don’t care what anyone says. If it feels like a passion just do it cos you get better by doing it.  Go with repetition and try something again and again or in different ways but you learn by repetition” She shares Tips on believing in yourself & your creativity “Just do it .. be driven by the spiritual’, Write affirmations before starting your work eg “I paint to my highest level so I might serve and inspire humanity’ “ I do 25 affirmations  before i do anything.” “Whenever i don’t do the affirmations the difference is huge. it’s the ego thats stops so many of us, and sabotaging our work.” These affirmations settle the ego down and bring her higher being up into more elevated state and in the bliss of the moment “Failure… i dont read reviews.” Full Transcript Follows Hi this is Marysia at loveyourcreativity.com, this podcast interview is with Liz Ranken who is an everything, a movement director, a painter, a physical theatre practioner, a writer. Not only does she create in many ways but she’s also hugely successful in all of these areas. One of her paintings is in the National Portrait Gallery. She has worked at over fifty productions at the Royal Shakespeare Company and has been involved in huge amounts of ground breaking theatre and dance work in the UK. She really is legendary and wonderful. She talks about all of this in this podcast and her spiritual practice, how she really gets her ego out of the way, how she has explored doing affirmations and proper physical and spiritual warm up before she starts work which has had a huge impact on her ability to create. Her big takeaway that she keeps coming back to is “just do it, don’t care what others say. If it feels like it’s a passion, do it because you’re going to get better at doing it, so do it”. Now Seth Godin in his startup school podcasts says when he wishes when he first started working as a freelancer that he would’ve asked each client at the end of each job to give him a testimonial which he could then laminate, put in a folder and build a body of work and show him new clients. Liz has an amazing testimonial.   I said to Liz that I’d like to start the show by asking if there was any real memorable moments for her that made her think she made it [...] Fun, Inspiration, Motivation, Podcast Marysia Trembecka Actress/Blogger/Writer & Performer of her own shows no no https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/06/art-is-never-finished-only-abandoned-so-lets-release-it/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/06/art-is-never-finished-only-abandoned-so-lets-release-it/#comments Sat, 06 Apr 2013 17:56:40 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=199 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/04/06/art-is-never-finished-only-abandoned-so-lets-release-it/feed/ 2
