We all have a note book of sorts where we keep our idea's and thoughts. So why not have a note book for all your visual idea's?? Da Vinci did, so it must have some value - no?
He drew his visions of the aeroplane, the helicopter, the parachute, the submarine and the car. It was more than 300 years before many of his ideas were improved upon. The notebooks are where Leonardo recorded his own ideas as well as existing designs and philosophies for reference. They were never intended for publication.
My visual notes are not much different. Recording textures, feel and intent to lack of to catpture a mood or state of mind and idea's. Image notes don't need to be perfect, as long as they capture the key messages at the time of. A final version can always be redone / re-shoot after all the tweaking is done.
Here we have two different images, taken from the same shoot. Originally thinking I wanted to portray a more 70's retro, but elegant look. I may turn out a few more "working artist proofs" before I land on a final piece.
What do your notes say?
