Session Details
You’ll attend not one, but two different workshops and experience how you could apply your passion for creativity to your studies as a uni student. Choose from:
What makes a product marketable? In this workshop you’ll learn tips and tricks from an expert designer, then hit the design space to create and pitch your own unique, innovative product.
In this hands-on challenge, you’ll learn the fundamentals of brand identity to design your own brand and logo. Explore examples of how names, graphics and typography can build an unforgettable brand.
Get an exclusive glimpse into the world of screen production with an immersive studio tour for movie enthusiasts and aspiring filmmakers alike. Play around with professional filmmaking equipment, hear stories from industry experts, and view student films.
Creating engaging narratives on screen goes far beyond the script and acting. Learn how filmmakers create immersive cinematic experiences through editing, cinematography, costumes, hair, and makeup.
Embark on a journey of self-expression and storytelling through short fiction and non-fiction writing. In this workshop, you’ll develop your writing skills by exploring the depths of your own stories. Tap into the power of personal experiences and emotions as catalysts for creative inspiration.
