Digital Art, Animation and Games Design students have been working with an external client to develop online marketing material for the healthy biscuit brand, SnackZilla. The client, Marieke, briefed our students who then worked in groups to research and develop ideas before pitching these to Marieke. It was a great opportunity to work on a live project and developed students core vocational skills in client presentations and working to deadlines. The final outcomes will be used on SnackZilla’s social network platforms.

Students on the same course were also asked to develop a side scroller game concept that encourages young people to become more environmentally aware around issues of sustainability of the earth and its resources. To help them understand the subject, our students enjoyed a talk from Jasbir Singh, a Greenpeace speaker, who visited the Creative Industries Centre.
