What yoU’ll ShaRE WIth thE ClaSS

1. CURatEd BItS of “RaW data”

You’ll be collecting things along the way (video clips of user interviews, concept sketches,

inspirational visuals, etc). You will pull these from the work you have been doing.

2. yoUR VISIon VISUal (oR VIdEo)

Your vision in the form of a short video or video.

Both deliverables could take many forms but they must be “stand-alone.” Meaning, anything you

photos with descriptive captions, videos with meaningful titles and credits or voiceovers all work).
