Having a process also allows you to think of ideas that may not be easily apparent. What's one thing you do to help come up with new ideas? How can you incorporate this into a repeatable framework (for yourself as well as those you collaborate with)?
After doing research, I love to listen to music. This helps me keep my mind relaxed while I digest the information I have gathered. In the end, I'm able to generate new ideas without stress.
Researching on competitors high engaging content then go for a run while listening to music helps me with my creative thought process. I tend to find most of my clarity during my long runs
For me, Listening to calming music while reasurching or brainstorming helps my creative juices flow. Something about it helps keep my brain engaged but also relaxed.
My creative process begins with gathering inspiration from different sources like articles, videos, or nature. I then let ideas incubate by stepping away for a while, allowing my mind to process them.
One thing I do to spark new ideas is going for a walk, which often brings fresh perspectives. To make this a repeatable framework, I schedule brainstorming sessions with breaks, giving time for reflection and creativity.
My creative process involves deliberate educational and inspiration time. I find that having time set aside for creativity and creating a swipe file for later use works best for me.
My creative process is scanning websites for real life situations and thinking about practical solutions. At night, I think about possible solutions and ideas pop up.
I would my say one of my creative process is going out for a walk on trails or parks, which helps me clear my mind and spark new ideas. This will then allow me to focus and recharge which fosters my creativity and inspiration in things that I do.
Taking the time to walk around outside and absorb nature helpes me come up with ideas. But i do not shy away form screen time. Many ideas for videos i get from watching others perform. Its what they said, a combination of old elements.
I usually will just look around me to see what strikes an idea. Walking past a playground you may notice a safety issue, or having access to a site that gives "Idea of the Day" bits is helpful as it provides prompt ideas that you can sift through until you find something interesting to write about. If you don't have an idea that needs to be worked on, sparking an idea can be as simple as keeping your mind open and scrolling the internet. Maybe you want to learn more about Cyebrsecurity or AI or a new geological discovery. Research it and write about it. I think most of the time, coming up with writing prompts is easy. It's getting yourself out of a funk is more difficult.
For that, you need to find your reset. Listen to music, watch your favorit comedian, or a movie, go for a drive or work on a problem that maybe impeding your creativity. Your know what works to turn your mood around, so put that plan into action and getting back where you need to be will be easier.
My process usually works in two ways, depending where Im at in the idea stage.
For an example with a hobby of mine, I make designs for home goods.
If I already have an idea in mind, I brainstorm the basics of the idea and create a rough draft of what I want it to look like. Then continue to search other images to improve my design or try using AI to create an image I see in my head but cant create on my own.
If Im looking for ideas, I usually brainstorm a range of topics and search for things related to those topics, images or articles so I can create a different opinion or see an image that spikes an idea in my head that I can work off of.
Understanding the Prompt: I dissect the question or topic content so as to understand what is required. Gathering Information: Thus, in my research I am provided with a large stock of information from which I then select facts, examples, and ideas, pertaining to a particular subject. Generating Ideas: I generate and research ideas how to address the topic more innovatively. Structuring the Response: I structure the information in some sort of a format so that the information flows well and is clear. Refining the Output: I then edit the response to make it lively and informative besides encouraging more people to follow the trend. Delivering the Final Product: Here you have the completed response!
In my case, I try to visualize what comes to my mind...I associate words with images...create mental scenarios, and then...I start getting lots of images in my head I could use to put together a new idea.
I read other contents so as to help me have an idea or different angle to what I'm looking for, while also gathering points to which I can use when remembering
I check out content by others to see other angles from which I can derive ideas but most of the time, it's about thinking around and deeply to have ideas pop into my mind
my creative process is brainstorming with my partner and drawing. A lot. I also like to draw inspiration from etsy and interest to gain ideas and to see what people are actually buying. How can I create something similar without taking the originality of the Original creator
Hi everyone. I don't really have a standard creative process. However, I do lean heavily on juxtapositioning ideological elements. But I don't know that I would consider that a process. That's why I'm here to learn.
My creativity comes from examples of content, which sparks the beginning of an idea. When I'm thinking about the message I'm trying to portray while having the brand's image in mind, this is where the idea is formed. This helps me create an ideal and unique way to advertise any product or service that I would need to market.
My creative process involves brainstorming ideas, rearranging them, and letting them rest. I find that reading my work aloud helps me discover new angles without looking too hard. Even better is to have my content read back to me using a text-to-speech tool. Other inspiration comes from user's comments and memorable quotes. For example, say I'm brainstorming ideas for a series of articles for men over 50. In this case, a quote like, "A man is not old until his dreams become his regrets" might give me a long list of ideas to consider.
