- ReadWatch things that might inspire you. - Theres a series on Netflix called abstract which is worth checking out.Meditate- 'headspace' app is greatSketch ideasWork on the things you may have put off like say marketingKeep in contact with friends
- Looking at/collecting photographic journals and magazines, reading poetry and trying new things that can be done at home:)
- It took almost the whole year but I finally started feeling bored a couple of weeks ago and have been signing up for online talks and events ever since! The Dots has great events listings so take a look for something of interest. But any activity doesn't have to be work-related - it shouldn't be. e.g. tomorrow night, I'm zooming in to a virtual stand-up comedy event.Also, I walk a lot - a change of scenery is really helpful. And I'm trying to read more than I watch TV.
- Eat well, Sleep well and plan your goals on paper. I'm using this time to reducate and revamp myself
- Hunting for a writing job, writing more, reading more, networking more and watching biographical documentaries (I'm stuck with my docu-feature, as my collaborator died during the previous lockdown!)Hope You're all well :)
- Drawing a lot more concepts on the drawing board, finding a basketball court that isn't blocked off and watching more 3D modeling tutorials.We have to adapt and still stay creative...Good vibes only!
- Staying on lockdow actuall gave me time to watch new kinds of series and reading some books. I actually am in a good inspiration phase. Thanks to the lockdown I started writting a book and directing a animation which I wrote.
- Joining new online groups, and dedicating time to working on self-initiated projects
- Connecting with people! So undervalued!
- developing old rolls of film I'd forgotten about, and making youtube videos
- @Mary Kingcott Constantly listenting to the Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington podcasts on repeat.. haha
- Running, creating youtube videos (ArtChick TV) , creative self portraits and other creative shoots on location
- Try to exercise every day to freshen up the mind. I personally love running and I explore new routes almost every few days. Join the Strava running clubs!
- Watching design talks, lectures and books. Mainly getting out looking at things that aren’t considered designed and manipulating into experimental design work, playing around.
- Connecting with new people!!
- Self-initiated projects and dog sitting for a friend.The projects allow me to play. I'm able to experiment away from the computer and the dog walks give me time to clear my mind and explore.
- Reading all the time, not only books but articles. I get inspired from stories.
- Talking to my friends about our creative projects. It’s nice to be able to chat about it.
