They can do it.

But how much better is it when you give them the real thing?

When you're thinking about how a piece is going to resonate emotionally with people walking through the museum or what story you're telling and what you want people to experience emotionally as they've gone through a whole part of an exhibit, what are the ways you try to use the art to kind of create certain emotional feelings?

Our best heads of departments, the teams that run all the different departments that work on the show, they spend so much time with the script, understanding the story, understanding the theme, and then using as many tools as possible to reinforce those themes, those emotions.

And sometimes that can be technique, you know, the choices that are made in the craft.

Sometimes that's just a feeling that everybody's going for.

Like some of my favorite movies have these wonderful color scripts that even before we know what all the designs are, we know what the mood of the various scenes are going to be because of the colors that we're going to establish way early.

So then you get back into that and you're like, okay, how are we going to make that magenta feel in here as you're adding in each of the designs?
