INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS:
You will be able to tackle the briefs either on the computer or off the computer for the beginner track, however the intermediate creative briefs will be aimed at software users but our briefs are very open to interpretation.
The difference in Summer School tracks is that the briefs ask different things from our students dependent on their level of creative skill e.g. beginner would ask you to create a simple pattern, intermediate would ask for a more complex pattern with a mock-up and advanced an even more complex pattern or collection of patterns with mock-ups.
The different tracks also work on different trends and therefore the briefs are tailored to the different trends. If you want to get access to all of the trends then this bundle is perfect for you.
All tracks run at the same time so that our wonderful community can interact with one another in our private Facebook community for the duration of the event.
Please note Summer School does not include any technical guidance and can be done with any software you have available.
