So.. I though I was set on what I wanted to do for my FMP. I guess I was wrong.
I started from scratch.
I didn't know why but my first initial idea is about Bulgaria and the creativity of it, for some reason I was as passionate about it anymore as I was before. Because of this I decided to start with what I am passionate about.
I then had different discussions with several people. I tried to 'explore' all ideas and see if anything sparks or if I am drawn more towards one than another.
I was wrong. I had nothing. They were interesting, but I knew I wouldn't get things out of them that would challenge me or make me be 100% into this.
Then I decided to re-visit my initial idea and take a different perspective of it. I was thinking what if I was taking this idea very unrealistic and kind of sci - fi, how will that spark something and make it more interesting. I was thinking of revealing this under world of Bulgaria and it's actual creativity. Because of this I started searching creativity and Bulgaria and it was very hard to find artists, creative agencies, etc.
So I changed my point of view and instead of looking for agencies I decided to think of how and why is Bulgaria creative. Then I realised from history, nature, food and the culture itself is creative.
This is when the idea came to itself..
A cultural tradition that is packaged and sold for mass consumerism.
.. or simply said, selling cultural traditions to get people into the country.
This way I continue having the though of Bulgaria and creativity, but in a different way whiles showing people what they have been missing. I think this will be very adventures, if done right.
