Creativity

Creativity is using your imagination to create things whether it is choreography or art work. I find inspiration helps towards using your own imagination because it gives you idea's without necessarily copying someone else's work. It also gives people the opportunity to express their talents and feelings through creating things. I say 'creating things' because 'creating' is mainly doing something practical and doing what you imagine or see in your artistic part of your mind. 

I have experienced using creativity many a times as I am a art student where we get to draw what we see, paint what we feel and use the imagination to create something wonderful. Here is an example of one of my drawings where I have used creativity. This is a painting i did last year, i got my inspiration from the theme of 'sleeping' and so got two of my friends to model as if they were sleeping and i took photos and then drew and painted from them. 
Another time where I experience creativity is at my dance school where we use imagination and feelings to 'dance' We get the chance to make routines up where we use our creative side to do so. 
This week we have been using our lesson time to get the most use out of creating things and being as practical as we can to get idea's for our music video. 
Me and my friend already knew a dance routine, it was one that we did a while ago in a jazz class which we take part in every week at our dance school and so this helped us with inspiration towards our product. 
The song we are using has a good rhythm to have a dance routine in it and so we videoed a dance routine and some shots that would be ideal for our idea. The song we used for our 'idea's' is not the song we are going to be using but it is quite similar in the style of it and the genre.
Here is what we have been up to this week...
