I've had a bit of a break from posting on social media of late, it hasn't really been feeling like a joyful place.
One thing bringing me joy though was this piece of work by one of my Y7 mentees! Using some old Affinity tutorial books I had squirrelled away he put his own stamp on a cityscape design and made a short video to show some of the process.
How good is this?!

I love getting to collaborate with friends…they are the best jobs!
A wonderful morning of workshops at Thistly Meadow School in Leicestershire last week to help mark the 100th birthday of Sir David Attenborough. We worked on cyanotype photography and also got to feature on BBC Radio Leicester!

I've been incredibly busy of late and as a result very quiet but here's a little bit of work made by one of my mentees. We looked at foley work, trying to create sounds for silent film footage, using microphones and a random assortment of objects. All of the sound in this video has been "made"…I think he did a great job!
