When a client gives you complete creative control, it can be frustrating to come up with ideas. This may be due to a lack of understanding of the SHINY framework, the Rocks in a Glass principle, and not thinking about how to tell the best story with what you have. Technical ability is often emphasised over storytelling ability, which can lead to a focus on flashy transitions and effects rather than creative problem-solving. I believe that creative literacy is as important as reading and writing, and I’m on a mission to empower future generations with creative literacy.
