Characters are not cars, props, or buildings and require a different type of attention and focus.

A little "clutter" is not always a bad thing. When you are talking film clutter, it usually includes the stuff that ends up on the cutting room floor -- film that's scratched, stained, contains countdowns, head and tail burns, dust, light flashes or leader marks. But here's the thing -- that kind of clutter is sometimes just what you need to add life and drama to less-than-gripping static images, footage or type treatments in your productions. This kind of clutter adds spice and character with an indie-movie bite. The problem is, this character is not the kind of thing you can plan. It has to just happen... unless you are lucky enough to have the Digital Juice Drag & Drop Series at your disposal.
