The Creative Process

Why do we need a process?
- It will improve consistency
- time management
- quality of your work
- communicate more effectively and in a more professional manor

Steps to the creative process
1) Research- The more you know, the easier your project will be. Research on the internet, by meeting with your client, or by looking around.
2) Brainstorming/Inspiration- talk with people, come up with adjectives that describe the project; Ask these questions- What kind of message am I trying to communicate?, Who is my audience?, What kind of color/style will work for this audience?
3) Sketching- quick drawings for ideas, consider placement of elements
4) Execution- using research, brainstorming, inspiration, and sketches to implement ideas
5) Critique/Revise- look at your design objectively, make sure your design effectively conveys the message
