Unless its excessively long (1200+) then you don't. You just learn to write quicker and devote more time to the creative.

Sorry if this isnt really feedback, but it is very difficult to give good advice on how to cut down a creative piece i have never seen before.

Well how long does it take you to write it under exam conds? (which means no notes, only a black pen and your head :D)

Add 5 minutes onto the end of what you get (for effective incorporation into the given stimulus) and then thats how long you need.

Are you guys doing the weight things for your pens?

If I lessen any part of my Creative it will not be a band 6 response anymore.... I cant afford it

Don't worry man! My creative is 1200!!!

Also, check out this conversation talking about the pluses and minuses of using a weighted pen

Keep in mind that during the exam, you will naturally cut down and edit to adapt to the stimulus. If its around the 1000 word mark then just try write as quickly as you can keeping in  mind that you will slightly change it in exam

Hey guys!! The current policy in this busy week is that everyone needs 30 posts on ATAR Notes for every essay they'd like marked. Justina, you are very close to that, hang around the site a bit today and get those last few posts?

Oh okay awesome! I'm at 30 now!

But Jamon has said that I needed 20 points to get my creative marked?

Could you quote to where I said this? Don't take this as accusatory, it isn't, I just don't remember where/why I said it! :)
