All you will need to do is install Zoom (if you haven’t already) and follow the link we provide.

*** OCTOBER DESIGN SEASON SPECIAL ***

As part of Leicester’s Design Season we’re putting on an online event with guest speakers from Leicester’s creative community. Each speaker will give a quick fire presentation, talking about how design functions in their individual processes, work or business. The content of each presentation could be be anything they like to focus on but the overall brief is design related. Should make for some interesting topics!

And, to keep things fresh every presentation will be limited 20 slides for 20 seconds each (20×20) so just under 7 minutes in length.

CONFIRMED GUESTS THIS MONTH INCLUDE:

Oz Durose | Freelance Animator | Title: ‘Storytelling through Poses’

‘Oz Durose is a Freelance Animator with over a decade’s worth of experience in the entertainment and games industries. He spends most of his days in Maya, pushing and pulling character rigs to get the ideal motion for a shot, sculpting each pose to best suit the story. You can find examples of his work at www.ozdurose.com’

Kate Unwin | Freelance Set and Costume Designer | Title: Nature and folklore inspired design

Kate Unwin has been a freelance set and costume theatre designer for about 20 years. In 2020 she lost almost all her work due to coronavirus and used her time to start a new business. The Moon and the Furrow is inspired by a love of nature, folklore, customs, literature and history.

Sustainability and the environment is at the heart of The Moon and the Furrow. In the theatre world and especially with more commercial projects, there is little or no concern for where the materials have come from and where they will end up. All the designs are made from 100% organic or recycled natural materials and with a desire and responsibility not to bring more unnecessary stuff into the world, the products are about changing habits and attitudes towards the natural world.

  • Stay Safe.
  • Stay Strong.
  • Stay Creative.
