We attempt to break a new Puppet Slam piece in 20 minutes! (Editor's note: Our camera only films in 12 minute chunks, thus the cuts in video. We promise we didn't keep brainstorming during the restarting!)

Having a partner to bounce ideas off of can help you figure things out much faster, but if you have to work solo try and talk to yourself out loud to force yourself to put your idea into words.

This challenge was inspired in part by the fantastic podcast Story Break.
