Also, not technically docs BUT Dopesick and/or Painkiller are solid series about oxy/Purdue Pharma

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie
plus if I see a bad movie I donât feel like I wasted money

If youâre from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Donât! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, itâs worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because itâs cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. Itâs not really anything special visually but itâs a beautiful institution and itâs so fun to be there â€ïž
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loewâs Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! Itâs pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but itâs a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Ask a few people for feedback. A few rounds of critique can be soooo helpful. Donât ask what they like about your workââI likeâŠâ is not helpful and too subjective. Ask what WORKS (and what doesnât work) about your design.Â
Frequently step away. Every time you make progress, take a break so when you start working again youâre looking at the design with fresh eyes. Staring too long can push you further into the rut. I often find that doing something completely different during the breaks can reset your brain a bit. Plus breaks are just nice in general we love a break!
Look at inspo! Consumeđthatđcontentđ. Taking some time to browse other designersâ work (students, peers, contemporaries, but also the greats) can give you some great ideas, though what I find most helpful is keeping mental notes or jotting down what makes each design successful. Which elements are working? How do they convey information? Even if their work isnât your personal style there are still gems to be mined.Â
The simplest solution is often the best. I believe it was Michael Beirut who said this (donât quote me on it though thereâs a good chance Iâm wrong lol), donât try to be different, just try to be good⊠or something like that. If your design is âgood,â it will inevitably be âdifferentâ because YOU are what makes it unique. You donât have to reinvent the wheel!Â
If you ever need a second pair of eyes I would definitely be down to help!Â
