I think not knowing someone is coming is actually better for me because otherwise I am anticipating their arrival. That said &#8211; I still want to know if someone is coming so I don&#8217;t leave&#8230; The ills of a people pleaser. Still getting use to being so public in this year&#8217;s residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">End of Day reflection:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Day 6 also means the week is almost done. I feel like I\u2019m getting my stride, and I think it helped that the @fleet_mobile_studios was fairly warm today. I hope this momentum carries me through the forthcoming rain next week! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The video transcript with the description follows the hashtags below. I like the ping-pong energy between clone-voice Kay and Bill, the narrator (ElevenLabs). Since I\u2019m trying a slightly different format today, I added some Kevin McLeod music. Those credits follow the transcript below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1280\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 718 \/ 1280;\" width=\"718\" controls src=\"https:\/\/www.kdot.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/day6-2024-1.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transcript: Kay walks in front of a large black paper with a white figure and lines of white text. Wearing a painter\u2019s smock and yellow lanyard, they sign:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s 6:15, and I\u2019m calling day six complete. Wanna know what I did today?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They gesture, and a series of short clips follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kay leans against a wall, looking at an iPad:<br>\u201cI read a heck of a lot\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A photo of Kay with two others appears, their Instagram handles flashing above them:<br>\u201cMore people came to visit!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A set of storyboards and pink stickies:<br>\u201cThe first draft of my script is finished. Yes!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hanging plant above a window:<br>\u201cI made a new friend today!\u201d<br>Kay looks up sweetly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standing again in front of the large paper, Kay signs:<br>\u201cThis is part of my series titled \u201cThe Unseen,\u201d<br>A timelapse shows Kay writing the many lines of white text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A close-up shows a small paper model in progress:<br>\u201cI started a small-scale model of the space,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, it cuts back to Kay. They place a hand on their forehead, leaning back dramatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWow. The week isn\u2019t quite finished, but after tomorrow\u2014one week down. Where did the time go? Now, it\u2019s time to head home, eat, blog, and plan.\u201d They flash wide eyes, smile, and give two thumbs up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOk \u2013 see you tomorrow?\u201d<br>They sign \u201cI love you\u201d and walk away.
