Watch a film from before the 1940s

On Tuesday the 29th of August 2017, I watched Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Hand 1937).

It's embarrassing to say that as an animation student, I have never watched the original Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs film. When I was younger I read the book, as I've grown older I've watched the remakes (Maleficent) and even know a couple of conspiracy theories that surround the story but have NEVER WATCHED THE FILM.

I took out the time (procrastinated a bit during my week 8) to watch the film for the first time. The experience was intriguing as initially,  I felt stressed and guilty watching the film as I knew I should be working instead, however that changed as got more engrossed by the film. By the end of the film I felt more at ease and actually ended up getting into my work easily without stress clouding my judgement.

This experience will benefit my creative process by encouraging me to not work while I'm stressed/worried but rather do an activity to put my mind at ease before getting into my work as stress impairs ones judgement and makes a task harder to do.
