I was having real problems with the genre mashing and then I got hit with an idea post-con (largely inspired by boni and the Vexercises panel discussion) and immediately had to work on it. It all came together in a day which is... bananas, really. I've been watching SO many constructed reality vids lately and I love them so decided to at least give it a go and I'm really happy with it!

Re advice I would just say go wild and just have fun! Don't let the need for perfection stymie your creativity.
