Ideas

This workshop focussed mainly on the development of ideas. Helen talked through loads of different ways in which we can develop ideas, especially if in doubt. 

these are the ways in which an idea may develop:

• recurring themes
• looking through other work
• always noting down a though that you think may be a good idea
• adaptation

The class were also asked to share a one line synopsis of the 250 story we had to write for storytelling for the screen. We were then asked to pass this over to someone else and let them expand on the story or see how they would tackle it. It was actually great to see what someone else would do with my ideas. This helped me because as an artist I tend to be very cautious as I become very conscious about my own work or start to believe its not a great idea when in reality I haven't even bothered to expand it. This has given me a little more confident. Was really kind of therapeutic.
