My name is Adam, I am a college student studying Public Relations and I would like to think I have original ideas. What engages my creative side is the idea that everyone has the ability to make something new. We all have our own set of experiences, our own reaction to them, and each person’s perspective shapes what they create. It isn’t solo act, however. The true goal of art, and what makes art good, is relating to others.
Not to say it’s a popularity contest — just ask any music snob about their favorite underground band and how they deserve more attention but are also too good for it anyway. The best music is music with the ability to sound immediately familar even if its the first listen. Some works of art are popular because they’re accesible, some are popular because they’re relateable, and often the best are both.
That brings us to Public Relations. Much like music and movies the messages we send are both creative and calculated. I feel that having a creative mindset brings an advantage in this field. The final step is thinking of the viewer, and changing your work so there is mutual understanding.
That said, the content of this blog will be to discuss the changing world with the internet becoming bigger and bigger in our lives.
