The Brief
Take a pen and a notepad (does anybody still remember what those are?) and as you go about your day, just make some notes. Observe things. Open your ears, your eyes, your nose and really look at them (yes. Look through your eyes and nose).
It might be people, it might be nature, it might be the elements, it might be something more spiritual or whatever. Particularly a whatever!
If you pass by a stranger saying something – write it down.
If you pass by a bin falling in the wind – write it down.
If you pass by a dog peeing on a tree – write it down.
If you pass by a whatever whatevering – write it down.Once you have enough info written down – see if you can make a fun play out of them… I mean… don’t see if you can – just do!

Depends on the match.

Serena Williams. John McEnroe. That caliber.
SCI-FI ACTOR
Oh, well, then. Am I signing something for you?
WOMAN
(passes him a photo)
This, please.
SCI-FI ACTOR
Oh, I loved doing this film. Wow… this is a rare still. (beat) Do I talk to you on Twitter?

No.

She says you only engage with people who disagree with you.

Honey!

You did say it.
