Pinterest research
Pinterest is brilliant for getting ideas and inspiration for a new project. I searched for scout badges and acts of kindness. The badges below are 'alternative' scout badges which aren't exactly acts of kindness but are useful for thinking about how diverse and imaginative a badge can be.
I can use text so the image doesn't have to be too literal.
These are simple but beautiful badges and could be recreated using vectors in illustrator and communicate a message with minimal shapes and patterns.
Acts of kindness
There's loads of stories and examples of acts of kindness on the internet which does give you a release of endorphins reading about them. Actual acts of kindness are probably the way to go as it's a personal thing that needs first hand experience to get some ideas going for how to visually explore kindness.
Local places? There's lots of charities around Leeds to look at but I also want an appropriate balance with my commitment to the project and any act of kindness. It's important to not just do an act of kindness as a token gesture or to commit to a charity purely for the projects success so maybe a simple, light act of kindness is a good place to start.
An act of kindness could be spontaneous, grand, financial, random, personal.
Is there someone I see often who is kind to others or does a selfless act??
Here's Dan..
