This brainstorming thing is pretty new to me. I mean, I have brainstormed before, but I just didn't know it was called like that. But the new thing is actually putting my thoughts, even if they are simple words that can get to an idea, on the paper.
I was given the word gleam to do my editorial photoshoot and make-up, and at first, I wasn't so happy about it as I didn't knew what it meant. But after using Google Translate which is a blessing for me, I have found out and I have changed my mind, realising that this word is actually really awesome and that I could do amazing things that can shout "gleam"!
So gleam means, as a noun:
"a faint or brief light, especially one reflected from something." (Google Translate)
or as a verb:
something that can "shine brightly, especially with reflected light."
The other words I have though about that can be synonymous with gleam were those written on the brainstorming sheet:
Other words that I didn't think about but found on Google Translate are:
glitter, shine, sparkle, twinkle, gleam, flash, radius, ray, beam, gleam, shaft, compass, spark, sparkle, gleam, glance, scintilla, sparkle, scintillation, glitter, gleam, shaft, glisten, shine, glow, sparkle, glare, light, gleam, flash, glimmer, twinkle, glimpse, gleam, shimmer, glitter, shine, sparkle, twinkle, glimpse etc.
Sharon explained to us that using this words and other related to it, we can compose our Pinterest boards to get inspired. And it is important not to only use make-up pictures, but textures, colours, various patterns, inspirational quotes etc so we will have where to choose from when creating our moodboards. Furthermore, it is important that we don't take the word literally and go for the easiest design, but create something more methaphorical, something deeper than what the word actually means.
Considering all these, I will look up for more inspirational pictures and start thinking about a way I can bring this word to life and transform it into a make-up design.
