DNC: Thinking inside the Box
When I work in my Newsday office, I turn off the lights so I can trace my rough sketches onto my thicker drawing paper by using a light table. So I lugged the light table to the DNC in Denver but once I saw our unbelievably bright, plastic-roofed work tent, I knew I was in trouble.
First I tried pulling the blue plastic skirt running around the table over my head like one of those old-time photographers but that didn't work.
Then I actually tried to lay on the floor under the table but realized immediately that I would never be able to walk again if I spent two hours down there.
Finally I decided to think inside the box.

Thanks for the photo credits, dear ol' pal!
You could use a thick tracing paper/velum and not have to lug around the light box or work in a cardboard box. It scans in just fine.
