Creativity Exercise blog- week 3

 

 

                Welcome back! I'm glad you can make it in for another one of my blogs. Today I have a little special one cooked up today and it starts with our third week of creativity exercises. And today's exercise might elevate your artistic skills just a tad or may not.. But regardless were gonna have fun with it.][

    This week I thought about some of the more fun creativity exercises and decided to search the web to see what I could get in store for myself. And I landed on a fun creativity exercise that I wanted to work on for myself and hopefully for you guys as well! Well to begin with exercise itself, it require at least two people to do the exercise, a couple sheets of paper, and some pencils to draw with.

    You begin with one person on one side with a blindfold and their piece of paper and the other person has the same. You have 15 seconds to take a good look at each other and when the 15 seconds is done you attempt to draw the other person just from memory alone. I can say this now, I have never laughed and had so much fun in the past week than I did today. Me and my siblings tried this today and it was some of the most fun I have ever had with my sibling just looking at each others drawings. We also decided to add our own little rules in by trying to color them in as well. And seeing how well we got each other, I can officially say this was the most fun exercise that I had learned about in a long time and will genuinely try to do it more through the next couple of months, cause I cannot help myself but laugh at the little ridiculous drawings we made of each other. 

    And I cannot wait for you guys to try it as well. I hope that it brings you guys as much joy as it did to me and hopefully it sparked a little artistic flare in your that you never thought you had. I appreciate you guys tuning in. On to the next one! 👋

Instructions Visual Voice Inventory.  Create a collage or slide show of 8–10 pieces of your past creative work (photos, drawings, designs, etc.). Analyze them as a set: Write down the first words or feelings that come to mind for each piece, then look for patterns. Do certain adjectives repeat? Do you see a consistent color scheme or subject matter? Next, ask a friend or classmate to view the collection and describe what they  feel  is  your  voice or style. Compare it with your own impressions. This inventory will help you identify elements that already make your voice distinctive. Based on this, list three qualities you  want  to emphasize more in your voice (for example: “playful humor,” “bold contrast,” “compassion for outsiders”). This list becomes a conscious target for your future projects.  Content   Reflection   Time Made Visible. Mesmerizing, Temporal, Distorted    Rain  Moody, Dreamy, Quiet ...

 Instructions 1 - Based upon the jobs you looked at and the requested skills of each, identify a piece you have previously created that you could improve to show you possess the skills being requested, or create a new project to show that you have the skills the employer is looking for. 2 - Create a blog post about this project: who is the audience, what is the message, and what are you hoping to accomplish with the piece, what design decisions did you make, and why did you make each one? 3 - Add the piece to your online Portfolio Content            Hello again! Welcome back to a new week and a new piece that will be added to my collection of projects that are going to end up in my portfolio. Today's post will revolve around a job position that I found very recently that I wanted to give a try, and see if I can create a piece around. So let's get our Social Media fingers on and create this thing.      Humble Beginnings  To star...

 Instructions   1 - Either A - Create a poster for an event, cause, or product that shows your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. Or B - Recreate a poster or Design that you have previously done, showing your understanding and application of Empathy, Composition, and Storytelling principles. 2- Create a detailed blog post that describes your visual choices and how you applied what you learned in Chapters 1-4 to make this poster tell a story.  Poster  For this project, I had the chance to create a poster of a movement, cause, or event of my liking. Or to recreate an old project of mine. At first I wanted to try and redefine and recreate one of my old projects, but looking back I don't really have any impactful type of creations..... But that's no worry. The image you see is made after a mental awareness movement. Since Men's Mental Awareness month recently passed past I wanted to try and give it a go with an organiza...
