I've been asked by the good folks at HOW to participate in the upcoming HOW Conference in Denver, June 6-9, 2010! The seminar I'll be presenting is on the topic of coming up with better design ideas faster. Here's the description:
Have you ever felt stuck when trying to come up with design ideas? Do deadlines cause you to freeze in your tracks? "Better Ideas Faster" is a seminar that will help you learn how to brainstorm better design ideas for print and interactive projects within practically any time frame.
Over the course of this 75-minute seminar, participants will learn how to:
- Approach a design problem with the right ideation questions in order to focus their creative energies
- Use the most appropriate brainstorming methods to coax out tons of ideas
- Learn how to properly ruminate on your newfound ideas and then improve them
- Understand how to generate ideas collaboratively when working on a team
Participants will leave this workshop with handouts detailing a wide variety of brainstorming techniques and methods for reinvigorating their creative process—as well as newfound confidence in their creative abilities!
Along with this seminar, I'll be participating in a panel about creativity. (A topic that you've never heard me talking about on this blog...)
If you'd like more info about the conference, they have an interim site up at http://www.howconference.com, where registration and the full lineup will appear soon.
