Creative Detox workshop


Last week close friend of the course Mandy Wheeler, from creative training company Punch It Up, came and ran the wonderful Creative Detox workshop for the Creative Advertising third years. 

Third year student Vicki Thompson writes:-

‘The whole workshop was all about ‘unleashing’ our unconscious ideas to create the best work that we can. Mandy led us through a number of exercises over half a day to help us practice getting thoughts flowing and to get around the rules that, over time, we set ourselves about what our work ‘must’ be.

‘During the workshop we explored techniques on to produce ideas in the form of several weird but fun activities that we can now repeat in our own time either on our own or as part a creative team. By the end of the session we were all aware of how we were inadvertently not realising our full potential as creative individuals and what we could do about it. I learnt so much in a short time.

‘Thank you to Mandy from all of University of Lincoln’s third year Creative Advertising students for such an inspiring session.’
