NOTES :
This is the first draft of the structure for my extended piece of writing. It cover all of the areas of interest that I have been researching. I have decided to explore the title Is creative innate, can it be developed and what is its value? As this is a question that can be fully explored and developed it is also something which I am interested in and from doing my research thus far I know there are many tests of creativity and way of developing creativity which I will be able to research into and engage with active research which is an important part to this module. Although my title does directly link to graphic design I think the fundamentally underpins graphic design and is what makes the difference between design that you pass everyday and forgot compared to design work that you see and it sticks with you and is innovative. The design world needs less rubbish that just gets filtered out of our heads and more exciting creative pieces. Through exploring this essay hopefully I will be able to comment on how creativity can be enhanced and harness and what value it can bring to graphic design but also to society in general too, as I think this is something which should be addressed as the word creative seems to just carry connotation of just applying to the 'arty folk' when actual fact 'creative' thought is beneficially and used in many professions such as science and this is something which should be considered.
