Week 3a; MindMap & MoodBoard

Today we went over our first project, the Desktop Calendar Wallpaper. We are using the month of October and our idea has to relate in some way to this month. So, to help the class, Professor Pannafino showed us a new technique called MindMapping. This method is used to broaden a central idea that you have to make something a bit more creative. Pannafino had mentioned that if it takes you more than five seconds to think of something related, you're thinking too hard. The point of this process is to make you think fast and creatively, no matter how silly it may be. Below, I have posted an example...
After making a MindMap, we then went over what a MoodBoard is. A MoodBoard is essentially a collage of ideas and concepts that you create based on a branch of the MindMap. The MoodBoard is usually the base of your project and shows others in what direction you want to head in.
