Creative

    Today, I decided to do an exercise called 10 ideas in 10 minutes, which I found on innovationlab.net. This exercise is designed to speed up your creative thinking. In this exercise, I have 10 minutes to come up with 10 potential solutions to problem. The problem I will be solving comes from a superhero themed DND campaign I created for my friends, the problem being: the experience system. I have the game set up so that my friends can level-up through training or stopping enemies from continuing their villainous plots. With that being said, I shall begin.

    So idea #1 was to refine the power system so they can do more damage. Idea #2 was to make more quick/easy missions to do. Idea #3 was to make more enemies to beat up resulting in more exp. Idea #4 was to make missions give more experience. Idea #4 was to increase the amount of experience dropped by enemies. Idea #5 was to refine the superpower system so that superpowers are even better than they already were. Idea #6 was to add new ways to train to get more experience. Idea #7 was to add a new system for martial arts so that I could add combos. Idea #8 was to add raid bosses that give a ton experience and awards. Idea #9 was to create teachers that you can train with to get a ton of experience. My final idea was to add more missions for them to do. 

    This exercise was quite the mental workout but it was very fun nonetheless. In fact, I might end up using most of the ideas I thought of in this exercise. I definitely should use this exercise in the future. I think its safe to say my creative thinking has speed up.

Magazine ads

Magazine ads      This first ad uses icons like the PlayStation controller as well as the Switch to show what consoles the esports team uses. I also used the Smash bros and Overwatch logos to help me with this as well.  The next 2 are the same ad are of a library. The reason they are the same is because one is resized to be a full-sized page and quarter page. This ad is also for esports team again I used game play from the latest Fortnite season I used the blue background to compliment the blue text and whilst it didn't come out very visible, that fine because the ESPORTS letters in white came out super visible which was my true goal.

Designing the experience

Image
 Touchpoints     My restaurant, Cafe of Hope, has some unique touchpoints not seen in very many other restaurants. The first one that comes to mind are the employees. This is because the gimmick of the restaurant shapes each experience with an employee into a unique roleplay game. I created this touchpoint because I see as a fun, little game that can be played by both the customer and employee. Next, would be the tables themselves and anime poster around the restaurant. I created this touchpoint because they would be promoting not only the anime's represented by the restaurant but also the restaurant itself.  There are a few other obvious touchpoint like the restaurant business card and any tableware that we might want to put our brand on like the bottoms of plates.

Little did they know, this island is filled with horrible monsters that want them dead. Legends say not even the mightiest soldiers can survive a week.
