I rested. I slept a bit extra, and just relaxed. Sometimes you have to slow down for a bit. I spent the day sleeping, watching crows and falcons from the roof and talking to my relatives.Besides that, I thought about “Risalo”. Each step of the way, I have to reevaluate the process to accommodate all kinds of variables. I have two contacts of puppeteers in Multan whom I plan to meet. From all that I have researched thus far, it seems that the art of making puppets is more or less finished in Pakistan. I need to meet as many puppeteers as possible, assess their skill level and try and figure out how to get all the parts of this film shot and recorded. I think I will focus on meeting puppeteers, then move on to recording while I wait for some of the puppets to be made. By whom, I’m not sure, but we’ll see, once I have met all the puppeteers I can find.I find it challenging to work this way, but in many ways, these challenges are why the work needs to be done. It is hard to find these artists and it is difficult for them to sustain themselves, so I hope by taking the time to seek them out and figure out the best process to work with them, we can make something interesting.
