Friday Lunch Special | The Gap

THE GAP; By Ira Glass, Directed by Daniel Sax (frohlocke)

On The Menu - A beautiful 2:18 short that illustrates an inspirational monologue by “The American Life” host Ira Glass about the gap that exists between one’s taste and one’s skill over the course of a career.

May We Suggest - Irregardless of how you feel about Ira’s on-air delivery, TAL has set an amazingly high bar for creative and meaningful ways to share true life stories. This short offers tremendous perspective and wisdom for anyone looking to improve their craft, even outside of the creative industry. - D.L. Anderson

David Shiyang Liu’s version of this same monologue was the inspiration for Mr. Sax’s new take on it. Creatively feeding creativity. Hopefully this will feed yours.

The Friday Lunch Special is an serial endorsement of the films and filmmakers we are inspired by, shared by a Vittles producer.
