Creative Process tutorial: collages are great (?)

You did your research, now it's time to connect the dots.
And you've been following my work, so you obviously think collage is the way to go - but what if you're just wasting time and overcomplicating/ over-editing things?
(like I used to do...)

In order to make these tutorials more visual, I'm trying to include references other than my portfolio from CSM.
For simple examples, I've used my own images. But I'd be a really lousy mentor if I never referred to other designers work, hopefully I won't get into trouble because of copyright:

This vedio made my made my day. I was waithing for something like this. Also can you do a vedio on how to focus on time management for a collection of atleast 5-6 pieces. As designers we tend to procrastinate alot and waste a lot of time in finalizing the concept etc. Please do a vedio on that. Coz whatever you come up with it motivates me to work harder.

Great question! I'm gonna be super annoying and answer with more questions: - what's your deadline? - what sort of project are you making? what do you need to present in the end? (time) management looked a lot different when I was making my final collection, and now that I have to account for my suppliers and manufacturers lead times and shipping time. - finalising the concept? what does that mean exactly? this reminds me of when I had to do powerpoint presentations to show to freelance clients who didn't even know what they wanted, and I kept stressing out I was the one "stuck" Just a few rhetorical questions to help you sit down and do a bit of planning :) I don't have any plans to make a video on time management because right now I'm talking about developing a creative process. And it's an open tutorial, so it's up to each person watching to decide how much they can/ want to dedicate to this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
