Today we are halfway through the workshop. Exactly one week until our final. “Anxious? That’s good. You should be.” D’Wayne said. The material knowledge gained in the past two days has inspired the start of our ideation sketches. The horn has sounded and we’re off to the finish.

“Document your work on the wall. The wall is your diary. When people from industry come in the room, they will look at the wall, and they will look at your sketches”

D’Wayne emphasized the importance of communication within each team. All teams were working closely today, evolving storytelling and reinforcing fact research. D’Wayne explained, when working in teams we cannot avoid conflicting opinions and compromising. We need to learn how to communicate especially when we disagree.
