WIP Broken "Love"

theprairiefox

Finally got a chance to put together my basic idea for "Love". Now I can look at others!

Core Idea: A young cupid has broken his arrow, his father is helping him fix it with Duct Tape.

Here are the thumbnails I am considering:

Let me know which one you like best and why. I am not sure which is my favorite yet.

@theprairiefox I like the 1st composition the best even though his father isn't in it. But the 2nd one you can push the faces on each.

Let's hear it for out of class practice

I'm a big fan of #1 as well. It's got great potential for cupid's little nose just poking over/resting on the tabletop.

What're your keeeeeeeywords?

theprairiefox

@Braden-Hallett You're right I should have put those on there! Doh!

Keywords: Comfort & Hopeful optimism

I had a hard time getting the feeling down to just a word...

@Braden-Hallett I did run this through a concept map. That is how I came up with the idea. Worked really well. I will scan it in and attach it tomorrow for proof.

@theprairiefox sorry for my ignorance but what’s a concept map?
(I think I like number 2 as it could show the emotional response between the father and Cupid )

@peteolczyk A concept map is diagram of related words to allow you to come up with creative ideas around a subject. I will put mine up tomorrow so you can see.

Hey! I like the first one best because of the perspective. I am curious about the look on young cupids face. Is it still said because of the broke arrow or hopeful because daddy is already there or a mix of both?

@peteolczyk and @Braden-Hallett here is my concept map for "Love".

Number 2 or number 4 are great!

@theprairiefox #2 is the clearest read for me. The size relationship of the cupid to father is defined. The left to right of the broken arrow and the tape is like a before and after, the solution is easy to read. Cool concept! hmmm, what else is on the handy dad workbench

@theprairiefox thanks for that, I think I know it as a mind map. Thanks for replying

theprairiefox

Thanks all, I am doing a combination of #2 and #4. I think it should work well. Mostly #2 but framed like #4.
