Groups were made up of the different courses and year groups so that students could meet and interact with others, find out about likes and dislikes, make connections, share ideas, ask questions and have fun. The outcomes included a gallery of the work, projection of the workshop short film in the VisCom Atrium and an online gallery launch.
