Just realised he created The White Lotus. The process was worth it 😅
this dude has SUCH a distinct voice
I love that he makes talking about his creative process funny - it matches his outlook.
this is my "go to" when I need a pick me up, and it never fails to motivate me and make me feel inspired lol plus, I just love Mike White. I didn't even know who he was, but he is so genuine and simply funny... my kind of people.
Thumbs up if you feel that Mike White has just given us the best validation for our procrastination tendencies! 0:57
I swear this is my exact process before I begin writing
Mine too! What do you write?
How do you stay motivated and keep it fun and enjoyable?
Man I love this guy. Great screenwriter who wrote School of Rock and Good Girl. Perfect movies!
this makes me want to start writing!
same!
Doug Armstrong I just came from the new ep and season of survivor
.28 reading "the hotel book."....the white lotus inspiration began
This is such a great look at writing as a process.
pineappleboyfilms I just came from the new ep and season of survivor
chuck and buck is, without a doubt, one of the best films ever. the good girl is way up there too. kim kelly is my friend is still one of my favorite titles of all time! his whole body of work is absolutely amazing. year of the dog. bam.
this resonates with me and i appreciate the validation for my procrastination of watching this video!
I was procrastinating now watching this :)
Binge-watching Mike White's interviews after finishing White Lotus 🙃
I feel so much more normal now, totally validated. love Mike White.
Holy shit, that is my method on the money...lazy and full of self loathing for not working , but enjoying the day and letting the 'time' hit and when it does it comes out clear and fast and a lot.
Cant force it ever
This guy is a genius!
Thank you for sharing. I thought I was the only one who goes through this phase.
Great video, thanks !
Thank you for sharing.
Love this. Thank god for people like Mike White. Stay original and true to yourself. Amen. And also his video gave me the good deep belly laughs.
This video always inspires me. Love Mike White!
Oh my gawd… I love this guy
I feel the same way! I am constantly building up ideas in my head while doing seemingly useless things.
I just came from the new ep and season of survivor
I love this series, it never fails to inspire me.
Agree! Thank you to the Academy for this latest one with Mike White.
haha I love this guy!!
i so can relate. i have to feel like im really procrastinating to build up creative energy.
Bless you, good sir...
This is so true to life, lol. I spend some amount of time every day laying in bed and I'm sure it seems crazy to my girlfriend like, why are you laying in bed in the middle of the day doing nothing? Cause that's where the ideas happen! That's where I go to get past a road block. If I stay sitting at my desk there's too many distractions. Maybe I'll go on facebook, think about my back hurting, etc. The bed is where I can just not have a screen front of me, have my body totally relaxed and not strained, close my eyes, and just be nothing but a consciousness floating in a void. I dream of having my own sensory deprivation tank one day.
Hahaha this Creative Spark video really made me laugh. I've seen nearly all of them, this contrast in approaching creation was real fun.
This video really looking like a short film
What he says about the creative process here is absolutely right on (and I'm a creativity coach and writer.) And if you watch "Enlightened," you'll realize that this guy has the authority to say whatever the heck he wants to say about the creative process anyways. Cause in my mind, Mike White is absolutely downright stunningly brilliant. His voice has a ring to it like Peter Handke's in "Wings of Desire," and he won the Nobel Prize in literature last year. (Call me a rabid Mike White fan. Yea.)
What aboit Enlightened makes you say he has the authority to say whatever he wants I'm curious? I don't know anything about the movie and haven't seen it.
i
This is 95% my method too. Love knowing I'm not crazy.
brilliant
8 years later white lotus comes out! Great story
I have a similar writing process. Now I feel less guilty about it. ;-)
Jennifer Jordan omg! i totally felt the same
This is me, inside-out.. Its weird when someone else explains your process, it then stays with you for a while before you forget it again and start writing
That was funny! I'm not sure I can really run with his guilt-free procrastination principle! Well, maybe a little. :)
This guy was in Me Myself and Irene correct?
He’s also a great actor. He should’ve been nominated and won for best actor in chuck and buck
Great writer, but also a great actor. I LOVED his show Enlightened. He's totally hot, I love him, can't stop thinking of him :)
Are you the dude from
Survivor??
SHUT UP, I'M WORKING!
YES
This dude is the shit.
Lol this guy is hilarious
I think he is freak tyler in entlightment
lmao now i have an excuse for loafing
As a fellow screenwriter, I get off on putting people through an emotional roller coaster. I want people to feel like they just got out of the most intense conversation they have ever had and it changes their life.
He must be rich. Look at his house.
this is adhd. looks like you're doing nothing but really the mind is racing at a million miles an hour and once you start something you're ALL in
This guy wrote one good movie lol
