mission
creative value and originality
creative value
Creative value, in my perspective, is embodied in products born from original thinking, products that carry intrinsic worth, usefulness, and significance. This entails ideas and outcomes that aren’t obvious but rather fresh and imaginative. They don’t originate from just any mind and can’t be visualized by every hand.
commitment
As a freelancer designer, my commitment is to craft visual experiences that resonate, engage, and leave a lasting impact in the ever-evolving landscape of the creative industry. I’m driven by a passion for innovation and a dedication to producing work that not only speaks to the present but also endures the test of time.
next gen empowerment
I empower young adults to gain proficiency in contemporary media, visual design and tools. Through training and workshops, I nurture their creativity, helping them unleash their full potential.
motivational support
Working with young adults often involves more than just conveying theoretical knowledge or imparting practical skills. It’s about instilling confidence, courage, and motivation in participants to fuel their creative endeavors. Instead of a strict focus on end results, the emphasis lies in nurturing and evolving their creative processes.
process focused work
Participants are encouraged to tread new paths and experiment, stepping out of their comfort zones and embracing challenging situations. While there’s a conceptual framework underpinning their creative work, it’s not the primary focus. It’s perfectly acceptable to be dissatisfied with the outcome and use the process as a learning experience. This approach fosters the development of ideas, execution, and evaluation. Moreover, it bolsters self-assurance and trust, as frustration from not achieving predefined goals is significantly reduced. This mindset paves the way for progressive growth driven by intrinsic motivation.
next gen empowerment
– Media Education Focus: I specialize in media education, guiding young adults to navigate the ethical landscape and grapple with the concepts of responsibility and the accuracy of information sources.
– Combatting Fake News: My work includes equipping participants with the skills and knowledge to critically assess information in the age of Fake News and misinformation.
– Harnessing AI: I educate on the implications and use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the media landscape, helping young adults understand its impact and ethical considerations.
– Empowering Creativity: I empower participants by teaching them tools and techniques to translate their visions into tangible outcomes, fostering creativity and innovation.
– Cultivating New Ideas: Through my programs, I encourage the development of fresh ideas and concepts, nurturing a mindset of continuous innovation among participants.
workshops
In consultation with you, I can offer customized workshop concepts that enable participants to work with current AI models and qualify themselves in the basics of prompting for text-to-image models. Participants will learn to infuse originality into their work to create unique pieces that stand out from the crowd. Please feel free to contact me personally, and together we can formulate an individualized concept that fully meets your needs.
