Quite honestly my favorite way to brainstorm is to use an Idea File. I feel like, its the best way to brainstorm because my ideas are always changing and flowing out of me. When I am brainstorming I feel like no format will help bring out these ideas better. Below are a few examples of my creativity.
I love to listen to music and every now and again I sometimes think wouldn't a song sound better with lyrics mixed and matched with better songs? I was listening to Metallica's version of Misfits Song called Last Caress (the lyrics are explicit so Ill let you look it up yourself). I was thinking what it would be like to sing some lyrics off one of my favorite Iron Maiden songs, "Fear Of The Dark" to replace some lyrics on the Last Caress? I started singing the lyric "Fear of the dark" and I felt like it worked pretty well. This was my first idea and it reminded me brainstorming and mixing and matching could help me be more creative when writing my own songs.
This is the first drawing of my new art book. It originally started out as the number zero, but I continued to be creative and constantly made additions to it. This is an important Idea for me because it shows that the number zero means nothing, but it is capable of many possibilities. My personal favorite variable the number zero.
Growing up I've always wanted to make video games. when I started taking my CNM classes it made everything ten times more serious for me. I've decided to start brainstorming on a logo graphic, for a potential video game company of mine. The G stands for games and the House represents you wanting to go home and play a Ghouse game. I have to start somewhere it makes me think what more I can do to this simple design? build a chimney with smoke, make the graphics move while the cursor icon is on it? Ultimately I feel this a good foundation for me to really make something catchy for my potential gaming audience.
Hi! I am a little confused about what an idea file is. Is it just where you write about or brainstorm about it in a file? I really liked how you took the number zero and did so much with it. It is very creative and interesting. I think that gaming idea is very cool and it does grab your attention and makes you wonder what it means. That is always a good thing when trying to sell your ideas or games or anything really.
Honestly I never really got a clear answer from my professor's I guess that was the whole point. An Idea File to my understanding is just a bunch of ideas that come to you during your life. Your create them in any media of your choosing and work with it. I think of it as more of like endless brainstorming. It's good for the creative juices to flow out and help your process.
Hello Everyone! Another week and another Microblog just for you! This week I have been thinking what would it be like to have my own podcast? What should I podcast about? Two very good questions and I feel like I have some good answers to that. Three ideas that come to mind are fictional stories, a journal of myself and things that I find interesting to talk about, plus my opinions. I feel for me, my creative process is always changing, but that makes it a wonderful thing. At this moment I feel it is best to have a theme and or a structure to the things I podcast about. Honestly, I would just have fun with it and see what I would learn from the experience. If I was podcasting a digital story. I would talk about a fantasy story that's kinda like D&D style. I would narrate the characters to engage more with my followers. If I did a podcast about my life. I would talk about my work, problems and my health issues. I find it important for people to get to know th...
Hello again! everybody I am new to writing blogs. It is something I have never done before. I admit it is a little intimidating, but I am going to try my best. I would really appreciate comments on how I am writing to better improve my blogs thank you everybody. I chose this blog because, I am interested into mysteries and I like a good narrative on whats going on in people's mind in certain situations. How does one literary feature from The Literary Web for Theorists enhance the story? As we begin she leaves some strange info about herself, I’m twentysomething and I am an international fugitive. “My name is isabella v. But it isn’t..” Why would she say this? Why is she an international fugitive? Leaving clues and half truths about her situation. She is still trying to adjust to her new situation “The first two weeks, the hardest, are over. I feel mostly safe. As safe as I can feel.” She blogs about how she must be careful. She misses the old wor...
Hello Everybody its been awhile! So this week I was thinking. If I had to do a Video blog or story about myself or something I am interested in. What should I do to stand out and make it good? First, let us say for example I wanted to do a let's play video. The current game I have been playing as of late is called Don't Starve Together. It is basically a crafting and survival game where you just simply survive and not let the world around you kill your character. I have been playing with my girlfriend Blood Queen and I was figuring what would be a good way to help beginners to learn the game. So if I was going to do a video blog about my experiences in Don't Starve Together. This is how I would do it. I would begin each video with my very own logo and a short introduction about my channel lets say about 10 seconds long. (It is important for my viewers to know who I am and get the familiarities of my videos.) I would do a beginners video chronicling how to surviv...
