A short but important article - this question has come up more than once.
It all started with a Sunday message:
In English: "I want my Instagram to be a male version of Maruv. Where the hell can I get this creativity?"
Creativity isn't magic that suddenly falls from the sky. It's a process based on observation, inspiration, and constant practice. Dream of making your Instagram a male version of Maruv? Great goal! Let's break down how to make it happen.
1. The Secret of Creativity: Copy What You Like
At first glance, this might seem strange, but copying is the first step towards creativity. As one of the concept's authors said:
"Take what you like and repeat it."
When copying, you're not just reproducing others' ideas. You're learning, training your eye, developing visual literacy, and the ability to adapt the best elements for your own purposes.
Tip: start with small things. Don't try to embrace Maruv's entire style at once. Take one element at a time: a post idea, a pose, or a color accent.
2. Reimagining - The Key to Uniqueness
Each iteration, each attempt to bring something of your own to the copied element makes your style more original. Over time, not only does what you create change, but your taste evolves - becoming more refined, more sophisticated, and your style becomes increasingly individual.
"With each iteration, you change, your taste becomes more complex, and ultimately you find your incredible style."
Don't be afraid to experiment. Even mistakes are part of the journey to finding your authentic self.
3. Visual Literacy and Action
Creativity isn't born from thoughts alone. Its foundation is visual literacy and practice.
Visual Literacy:
Follow those whose work inspires you. Watch films, study magazines, notice details in everyday life. The more you see, the more ideas you can process.
Practice:
Create. Every day, step by step. Even if you're not happy with the results - keep going.
4. Consistency as the Foundation of Success
Creativity takes time. The key word here is consistency. It's not just about regularity of actions, but their systematic nature.
Tip: set small goals. For example:
- One experimental post per week.
- One new element for your feed each month.
5. Don't Think Creativity Is an Instant Process
It might seem that creative people are simply struck by ideas. In reality, it's the result of time, work, and constant reflection.
"It's simple, but it takes time."
Remember: each attempt brings you closer to that unique Instagram that will fully reflect your personality.
Conclusion: Be Yourself While Drawing Inspiration from Others
To create a creative and unique Instagram, don't be afraid to borrow ideas. Start simple, find your own way, experiment, and maintain consistency.
Your style is already waiting for you. All you need to do is begin.
