The Spring of Madness: What Fuels My Ideas

from Wix

It's that time again. Another blog post. But this time, my focus is on the list of things that either sparks my clarity or is fodder of things to come in the near future.

What Fuels Me

The Chronicles of Caffeine

First things first, let's get right down to business. Or should I say an espresso-inspired kind of business.

I would traditionally start off by drinking a cup of one of the coffee blends to get my day off to a high-flying start. I would focus on assignments for school, including my Capstone that I am currently working on and will finish by graduation. This is enough to get me hyped up for what's ahead.

Additionally, my energy would escalate to the point where I would literally get off my chair and run to places. Even jump up and down at some moments where I especially get hyped. I would recall memories of the first time I tried coffee: Freshman year in high school on a Youth Group trip to Coffee Bean. I vividly remember how hyped I was that night. It felt like a long string of visions came into my head in a distinct, one-by-one pattern. And I never looked back. If you don't know what I'm talking about, here is a close depiction of such a thing. Yes, it is THAT big of a deal.

This whole vibe just came back to me in a unique side, this time it is in the world of marketing.

This method is especially helpful, even when some ideas could take a long time to come to fruition.

No Spoilers

Let's Talk About Those Ideas

The ones that stand out in mind at the moment are the following.

For starters, there can't be an influenced project without The Simpsons. Why? Because there just won't be another show like that.

Also, Family Guy, South Park, The Office, the MCU, and a whole field of others come to mind. Yet, it's all about putting all those creative juices to good use.

As for my EDGE project (pictured on the left), there are stronger influences for me to create a 4-D-esque environment for people to get into the action almost immediately. I'm not going to reveal any spoilers, but this is to give you a feel for what a transcending style of genre can look like from my perspective. The biggest example is taking an epic medical drama and putting it in the supernatural themes found in Stranger Things.

No Bull About It

A Sign of the Times?

Energy is a good way to get a clear vision for where to take any content.

So how can it best used when coming up with strategies to make brands stand out?

As you can see from the picture, the website is hanging on like a bull sitting on a field, waiting for its time to pounce. The reason why it parallels to my site is because of how much of a work in progress the site still is at the moment. Yes, there are still lots of things going on right now and this fact may delay some first distributions of content. However, the promise that I want to send to you still remains. I'm still cooking up some caffeinated-style ideas such as using influences from the accounts of sports organizations and YouTube channels. Why not throw in content commonly shown in streaming services in the picture as well? Suddenly, I may have the highest quality of content that can be shown on social media platforms everywhere. If I'm lucky enough, I may be in the mix to be on the list of people that have become figures in pop culture.
