Day 8: 30 Circles
(bright music) Hey, everyone, I'm Ryan Putnam, and this is 28 to Make. And the project we're doing today is called 30 Circles. The materials are this PDF sheet that you can download. It's just a regular PDF with 30 empty circles. What you're gonna do is take your Sharpie, your pen, pencil, whatever you're most comfortable with, something super easy, and fill all the circles with whatever kind of circular composition you can think of. The idea of this is try to get out as many composition and ideas as possible in a limited amount of time. It's good practice, and if you do it a bunch of different times, you'll start to see that you're quicker and quicker at turning out tons of different concepts. This is an example of what I did. It's a little, some of these are a little detailed, so you don't have to worry, you don't have to go in so much detail, but some of 'em are pretty fun, like, eyeball of course, skull, that's fun. But even landscape, some kind of patterns, and even some plants. S...
o go crazy, do whatever you like. Super excited to see what you guys come up with, but why don't you just share it and use the hashtag #28toMake and just let's see what ya got! (bright music)

I just loved the way this was presented and the immediate connection of the videos and their content which helped me discover and try things I would not have thought I could do. The affirmations from others doing the same thing and being able to gather ideas from the 'sharing' bit was also important for me. I have gained a lot creatively and it has fired parts of my imagination that lay hidden. I am just sorry it is formally over. I missed the last x3 sessions and the portfolio bit due to illness but will complete the other tasks and will continue explore developing those that really opened a creative slot for me. Above all thanks to the tutors - each of you - I loved the content you chose and the enthusiasm and creative energy you conveyed in just a few moments and the generous attitude of the skills share. That's it - Thank you, would recommend to anyone not to miss this opportunity.

I was looking for a way to get back into the habit of creating. The class has some fun ideas for projects that are easy to work on, which is super helpful. Every day I was excited to see what my new project was! But...a few seemed to not be what I considered sketching or drawing and didn't seem to fit the description. Overall, very helpful though :)

Best course ever on Creative Live. It's the foundation for doing anything or everything creative. Even if you think your only creative interest is say photography ...and you're not a drawer, maker or artist of any kind ...think again. This course will open up your mind and you will discover that actually you are a creative and you can pick up a pencil and draw... and it doesn't take up much time... 10-20 minutes a day. In the beginning it's not about the end result, it's about the doing and how it sets something off in your brain. It will make a huge difference to everything else you put your hands and mind to in life.
