Jordan Schnitzer’s recommendation to let go of something that isn’t working is a tip I truly resonate with. In the past, I have been hinged on an idea that I felt had potential. Unfortunately, I could not get past the thought of leaving it behind. Of course, this led to creative writer’s block as I couldn’t imagine creating something else. I think this is a tip I will apply sometime in the semester as it happens more often than not! Another thing I resonated with was John Doscas’s tip to look for inspiration right after getting the assignment. Too often I have felt rushed in designing something because I procrastinated. It is something I really hope to work on, especially since a bulk of the design process is finding an idea to work off of. These two tips will definitely help me out this semester in VIS317.
You are right that the concept is almost everything!
