Creativity

Creativity is considered the core of advertising industry. More often, creativity is perceived as the spark of the moment. Hegarty (2011) argue that there is nothing called creative process and the unpredictability is what makes advertising industry exciting. Creativity is a surprise and a motivation. Hegarty (2011) stresses on how important for creativity to be a surprise and in that way, “there is a good chance you’ll be successful and continue being successful”. However, academic interests…

mostly creative in ASB because we have to be creative. ASB is basically a class where we have different students from each level grade to come up with ideas for the school. As one class we all brainstorm what's the best for our grade levels. We use creativity when it comes to prep- rallies because we have to pick a theme for the event than we create posters and banners for each class. This involves a lot of coloring, painting,ideas and teamwork. Being apart of ASB feels good because I feel…

Prior to completing ENGL 2200, I had many misconceptions. I believed creativity to simply turn a new and innovative idea into reality and in order to be creative as well as imaginative you must act on the ideas you develop. I learned that creativity is so much more in addition to being the foundation for developing newer technology, literature, artwork, and so much more in life. I also believed imagination to be a personal thing and what stimulates thoughts for myself may not be the same thing…

The Consequences of Society’s Views Kurt Vonnegut has written a collective amount of small essays and in one of them he speaks of going into the arts. He draws the reader in by his blunt honesty and compassion, showing a great deal of ethos and pathos in the process. Kurt tells of the success to be found within the creative process and the benefits to reaped from it. Virginia Woolf in “Professions for Women” reiterates this theme of success in her speech to others, particularly women. Her use of…

inspirational; it makes me want to tap into my creativity more. I really appreciate the way he defines creativity, emphasizing that anyone is able to be creative if they are willing to change their perspective. Similar to his early beliefs, when I was younger, I believed that only talented artists were creative and that creativity was not a trait that everyone could possess, especially not myself. As I have grown older, I have learned that all of us possess creativity, we just have to be willing…

Kill Creativity? This is a very interesting question. It was presented and I think, very brilliantly answered by Sir Kenneth Robinson in February 2006 at an official TED Talks Conference. Sir Robinson is a speaker, author, and international advisor on education in the arts to government, education, non-profits, and art-bodies. In his rather inspirational yet stirring speech Robinson addresses the issue of the dampening of creativity in schools. Kenneth Robinson and the Stages of Creativity As…

a stunning image, but the skill-set a person has acquired and uses to lure out the most beautiful aspects of what they visually preserve. This approach, commonly referred to as creativity, is not necessarily an inherited trait, though natural talent aids in its development. Rather, in its most accomplished forms, creativity is a learned and practiced application of predisposed rules and methods. An artist’s…

Imagine a generation where creativity disappeared from the minds of the young, where new ideas are nearly erased from existence, where a spirited generation full of brilliant colors is dulled to a dreary black and white. Sadly, that is this generation. Furthermore, the school systems are beginning to strip away any creativity and love of learning that students may have. Now students regurgitate material at hand and do not engage in the deeper part of thinking. From personal experience, many…

Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”. Without question, God specializes in creativity and He surrounds us with His creative designs daily. When I have burst of creative energy it is God speaking to my spirit and the ideas seem to pour out and I find myself overjoyed. My creativity is God created and inspired without God my creativity could not exist. While I realize that I am not creating something new, it’s just a new perspective or revelation to me.…

rewriting a short sentence given by my teacher, repeatedly, until it was embedded in my fingers, and the following day, she would give me a brand new bland sentence to attack for a good half hour. Just as how Ken Robinson reacted on how important creativity is in education as literacy, it was absurd to have been enrolled in a class that was supposedly…
