Individual Project-launch

Here's a downloadable PDF of the project brief.

Mind map making guidelines
These are in no way meant to be restrictive, use these tips as you see fit. You should find a process of making mind maps that works as a tool for you to organize your thoughts and exploration, that YOU understand.

1. Start in the center of a page with an image representing your theme/topic, use at least 3 colors.
2. Use images, symbols, and scale throughout your mind map.
3. Select a few key words and position them radially outside of your initial theme image.
4. Each subsequent word/image/thought appears alone in it's own area, radiating outward in order of importance.
5. Consider using lines as organizational elements to literally connect your thoughts.
6. Use color throughout– develop your own symbolic code/system of colors used in your map.
7. Keep the mind map clear by using radial hierarchy, numerical order or outlines to embrace your branches.
