Draft Proposal
What Inspires You? An Investigation Into Inspiration.

I've thought long and hard about this project, and I must say that I am extremely excited about producing this project, because it will definitely give me a chance to test my abilities and maintain updated about all the skills I learned at Centennial.
It was very difficult to find a meaningful story to tell, and of course at the same time producing it so that it is interesting for the user. I chose to investigate in the notion of "inspiration". We all know that it exists, and we all use that word to describe things and/or events that cause us to become "inspired".
I would like to study the notion of "inspiration", but more deeply into what other people perceive "inspiration" to be like. The main part of the project will be me expressing what I feel "inspiration" is, and the things that help me become "inspired". For me at least, a cup of coffee, a sharpie and a sketchbook is all that I need to become inspired. I also need to relocate many, many times before I'm capable to find inspiration. Sometimes inspiration wakes me from my sleep... To me- inspiration exists- but only lives within that person, and we are the only ones who could see our own inspiration... nobody else can. However, once expressed other people are capable of viewing what your inspiration has helped you to accomplish.
I would like to reverse it around a little bit and have an area where I would ask people to tell me what they think inspiration is to them- and in return I would create what they think inspiration is to them- whether it be that they believe that their red teddy bear gives them that "creativity", or whatever it may be- I would use that idea and convert it into an experimental project. That project would portray then inspiration from me about their thoughts on inspiration.
In one section I would have a video about me explaining what I believe inspiration is, and of course this would have my background information, resume, and outlines. The last section would be what inspiration and my inspiration (the coffee, sharpie and sketchbook) has allowed me to achieve - which would be my portfolio area. Where each piece would be introduced within my sketchbook that I indeed to carry with me in many places. Perhaps a bit sketchy, but this actually would work well with my story, because my intent is to tell a story about me on a journey to find inspiration.
I don't have any concrete details about the project, but I wanted to show you this to see if this idea would work.
