20/4/18 - Day 3.
We were interacting with public to raise awareness of the Cornerhouse situation and promote our exhibition on the 2nd May by handing out the leaflets each group has produced in the morning. Our students were very proactive and good at traffic stopping, with great enthusiasm and communication skills - we were very impressed! The weather was great and majority of the pedestrians were in a good mood to learn about the Cornerhouse!

20/4/18 - Day 3.
5 groups of 3 produced their own unique version of campaign leaflets/flyers in A5 to hand out in the afternoon. They contained our event agenda and information of the final exhibition. The designs were amazing and very effective with a combination of photos and sketches. We were very pleased and I cannot wait to see their final outputs!

19/4/18 - Day 2.
It was the perfect weather for a site visit to 70 Oxford Road after the presentation of our collaborators. We looked at elements and context of the Cornerhouse, which was helpful as students were able to further their understanding and apply their ideas on site.

18/4/18 - Day 1.
In the morning, Hussain gave a presentation regarding the introduction of our brief and suggestions/methods for producing the final outputs, where students then started brainstorming for their designs. Naile and I showed some of our previous comic work as references and each group presented their ideas which were great.
