In a bustling city like Dubai, the idea of staying indoors or avoiding crowded areas, as we work together in flattening the curve, can seem limiting to creative professionals, digital creators, and brands.

 

While it may sound dramatic to some degree, it’s yet another challenge for creators, who normally already grapple with creative block on a daily basis. On the other hand, despite our constant battles against procrastination and the constant search for “aha” moments, creative minds have an untapped resilience that allow them to succeed in pushing boundaries beyond their current capabilities. So what are we waiting for?

 

Get your creative juices flowing with these three content ideas!

Spark AR has simplified the art of creating AR Filters. With some self-learning, you can now create and share augmented reality experiences!
