The Stress and Sacrifice of Making Things That Matter to You

Watching the Indie Game: The Movie documentary on Netflix (also available at buy.indiegamethemovie.com) and I can't help but notice the parallels between indie game development and indie cartooning. The personal, financial, and health sacrifices that come with being gripped by a vocation. But you still do it, because you're gripped by it. As someone else once said, it's kind of a sickness.
I think anyone involved in a creative pursuit would enjoy this.
I'd love it if someone did a film like this about cartoonists, though.

I loved everything about this documentary. It was truly eye opening.

This was a great movie. It really made me think about all the work put into these things. Fez is an awesome game, too!
I was hoping that documentary "Stripped: The Comics Documentary" would sort of fulfill your wish, Jerzy. But I haven't seen it yet.
Great documentary same crazy lifestyle for art kids in school
