- [Instruction] Ideation is where the design starts
to evolve.
You should start small by creating lots
of thumbnail sketches that have very little detail.
They should be the bare minimum
to express what is going on in your head.
Then start to create wireframe sketches
to develop the ideas a little bigger.
There's a simple vocabulary for wireframing
with lines to indicate paragraph text,
wobbly lines to indicate headings,
and shapes containing diagonal cross lines
to indicate the placement of an image or other asset.
But you can draw whatever works for you.
As you move through these ideas,
you should be discarding what doesn't work
and refining what does
until you have something that is developed enough
to be understood by the project stakeholders.
So you can run it by them and confirm you're heading
in the right direction.
Just be aware though,
that this is almost always an iterative process
so be prepared to make a few rounds of changes
before you're ready to start on producing the final artwork.
