VALDES ARTS 345: Skillshare Tutorial 2

For this week, my last week of my free trial of Skillshare, I watched a tutorial called "Creating Mood Boards with Adobe Indesign" as I was intrigued by using Indeisgn rather than Illustrator like I normally do to create mood boards. The tutorial laid out ideas for how to set up different layouts within your mood board going from more controlled and gridded to more creative and free-flowing. I thought this might be good information because it may be helpful when considering the layout of mood boards to do so in Indesign as well as thinking about arranging the information in a creative free-flowing way, but like the examples that were shown having some white borders around images and some breathing room on the mood board. This is different than how I usually make my mood boards as I usually make them in a collage way with images overlapping of different sizes and more images and little to no white space. They do get a little chaotic sometimes when I am trying to add too much or overlap images so much so that some of my images get covered up and lose some of their importance to the mood board as a whole and then often get forgotten in the direction of the project. For this week when I am creating a mood board for the beginning of our second project, I think I am going to use some of these new methods of organizing my mood board and see if I like it better or if it is more effective.
