Creativity Blog - Week 3

 

Welcome back y’all to my blog! In today’s weekly creativity exercise blog I’ve got something fun and funky to stir up your imagination. No long intros today, so let’s just dive right into it!

This one’s super simple but surprisingly cool once you get into it. It’s called “Lost and Found in Space”, and the idea is to create a story around anything that you can think of, that is in space. All you need is a pen, some paper and a mind ready to blast off.

Instructions

1. Choose a Random Item Found Floating in Space

2. Imagine Who or What Lost It
Alien race? Time traveler? A bored astronaut?

3. Answer These Creative Prompts:

  • What does this item tell us about who (or what) lost it?

  • Why was it floating out there in the first place?

  • Is it just trash or something far more important?

  • What happens when a human finds it?

  • What bigger mystery or adventure does this discovery kick off?

4. Let the Story Unfold
Write it like a short story, a journal entry, a sci-fi movie pitch whatever sparks your creativity!

And that’s a wrap for today’s exercise, hope you guys have an amazing time with this exercise like I did and like always. Ill see you guys, On the next one! 👋

Designing Emotion- Week 2

Image
                       Hello everyone! Today I was tasked with a assignment that I would hold as one of my most challenging so far. This weeks project was orientated around emotion. To me emotion is one of the harder features that I struggle with as a designer. Emotion has been some of my greatest hurdles when it comes to designing, the thought process, the layer scheme, the image choice, the whole aspect what the emotion has to revolve under. But this weeks task was only to pick a song to design your piece around, and contact mainly on the emotion is gives off.               When it came down to main choice that I wanted to revolve around, my playlists are a mashup or every genre under the sun. My main motto when it comes to music is "If it sounds good, I'll like it" and ive stuck with that for most of my life. But that was just one of the many little hurdles that I got ov...

My Colleague.

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 ...

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...
