This is great. I used this for a new project and found it very helpful to have more information for my marketing. Also, in the middle of the process, I found myself wanting to switch to the ‘creative’ side – or the content – and noticed how doing these steps is not my first impulse.
I still have to finish; I got interrupted when I got to the budget part – dang! I will finish, though, and will use this for future projects.
Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks for sharing Alyson 🙂 I like anything that helps me know what ‘done looks like’ as far as big projects go. Yours gives me a few aspects to consider that I wouldn’t have thought of 🙂

I really like The Creativity Brief and am looking forward to using it. I knew I’d have to give it a try when I saw the section on “The Resistance” as I just finished reading “The War of Art” which dealt with the Resistance on many levels. Thank you for providing this for us.

This is very timely since I’m at the very beginning of working to two other artist colleagues to create a group which will market our work together.

I am going to try this when I get home today! I’m arranging for a Studio Show at my house in May so this is perfect timing. I’m sure if it works well I’ll use it for many other projects. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your version of the creativity brief. I can think of a couple of projects where this will come in very handy. Yes, it does seem like a lot of work, but all the questions asked are important and could make all the difference in the world. (They are also the questions I would rather not think about, which says a lot.) Thanks again!

As a software engineer, this type of project planning/requirements gathering comes naturally for me. Well planned projects tend to run better than those where little thought was put in up front. THanks for the reminder.
And thanks for sharing the link to this book – looks most interesting and I’ve put it on hold at the library.

Thanks Alyson…this is timely…I hit a wall yesterday. So many **good things** (YAY) are happening.
I can appreciate a tool that gives me additional guidelines. I’m a ‘Mind-Mapper’ for goals so I’ll be interested to see how this works with that.

Im preparing PRISTINE a wilderness art show of traditional
and mix media paintings. This brief is really helpful yet
many of the questions in it were answered by in my plan so
I’m encouraged that I was thinking right. I have presented this
one man show to a University call to artists, we’ll see what they
say. The plan is great but the artwork has to be good enough
and that is always the bottomline.
