WORKSHOP LEADING - BRAZILIAN STUDENTS @ AUCB

I spent a few days last week in Bournemouth implementing and leading a design workshop with exchange students from Brazil, exploring design with anthropomorphism. This concept was based around animals present in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. We discovered ways to represent characters as animals within theatre and had a fantastic time designing and creating their creations. The students did a great job and they enjoyed dressing up for the photo shoot!
