Back to School

Andy has just returned from an afternoon at the Virtual Classroom at Red Tape Studios helping out some students from Sheffiled's Abbeydale Grange School to design a set of posters.


He was asked by Jo and Nigel from the Sensoria Festival to help out on one of their training days. The festival is more than just a fortnight of music and film - it has an ongoing commitment to education throughout the year and is involved in the new Creative Diploma courses (an alternative to GCSEs).

Andy:"By chance, we have already had a work experience student from the same school and course on a two-week placement here and we are the designers for Sensoria, so it seemed obvious to continue the connection. The help I gave was mostly technical in the end - the creative skills were already there. I learnt a lot from them !"

We'll be doing some more work with the school soon.
