So....... we finally discussed what the video was going to be, the roles in making that video and our own personal research to do. We each were given a slot within a day to research into and see during that time, the things we could do to help the environment. This would be an audio … Continue reading Week 10 – Dec 6
Week 9 – Nov 29
This week we decided what we were gonna do. We were going to do a video as we felt this was the best way as visual communicators to really express our message and to use this video as a stepping stone into making people aware about their day to day lives and what they could … Continue reading Week 9 – Nov 29
Week 8 – Nov 22
At this stage, we were determined to nail down what our presentation was going to be. There are literally so many possibilities it is so hard to choose. I think that what we really wanted to do was something different, something that we could keep to look back on. Our environment and how we take … Continue reading Week 8 – Nov 22

On the day of the first class, I … Continue reading Week 1 – Sep 27
