Hello!
Hello!
I am a sibling of two younger ones, so every time my mother was expecting, we would move into a bigger home to accommodate. So since my little brother's birth, I have basically lived majority of my life in Mililani (middle school to present). I graduated from Mililani High School back in 2020 when COVID hit so I had a "drive-by" graduation than the real thing. College didn't even feel like college because everything was online and Youtube videos. But quite honestly, the circumstances turned out better than expected, because when I felt I was wasting college away with my hard earned Youtube credits for Creative Media, I took advantage of the timing and applied for Accounting which changed my career, my passion, and a lot of other things. I even saved a lot of money from attending colleges that were going to be treated the same way. If I was an artist's tool, I'd be a pen tool in Adobe Illustrator. No matter how simple or complex a concept/shape can be, I can find ways to make or remove points and change the overall perspective as I manipulate it with any and all sorts of directions to consider.

Abstract:
The design of characters known to be cute is one of the few underlooked phenomenons to be explained within media and psychology. In reference to the popular character, “Hello Kitty,” it is possible for characters to become famous based on how they simply look. No background story or voice. This study was designed to dissect the factors that make a character design “cute” while appealing to the major audience. Prior research suggests that the popularity of Hello Kitty was based on the nostalgic feeling it evoked towards women along with the simplicity of how she is drawn. Results of the study show that there is no obvious trend thus far to suggest that the younger generations will experience a different version of nostalgia than the older generations, but the appealing features of a character design will in a few areas such as color and form. Despite the many limitations that weren’t addressed directly in the surveys, there are a handful of studies to fill in the holes. Overall, the validity and credibility of the character and study can only prove itself to be popular through branding and marketing.

CREATIVE PROCESS:
The concept of creativity has come a long way. The Old Greeks would call those creative forces muses, other religions referred to them as God. Today people still mostly treat creativity as an aha moment outside the area of influence. However, just by looking at the creative process one can tell, that creativity and creative work is more than just that one "Aha-Moment" (insight). It is clear that generating ideas demands planning and preparation, identifying something of interest like a problem, an opportunity or a challenge, doing research. This then leads to thinking of a solution, allowing time to incubate and iterations before arriving at something “complete.” Students learn that hard work is what makes their ideas come to life and sticktuiveness is what helps them get better.
