Live Brief launched to support skills development for Creative Students

Creative & Cultural Skills have teamed up with The National Festival of Making to launch an industry-led student challenge. The Live Brief is designed to support students’ skills development across the combination of creative and business skills needed to thrive as a professional, whether freelance or employed.

Students who are in post 16 education are invited to consider what they would like to contribute to The National Festival of Making programme by proposing an imaginative piece of work that will engage the Festival’s multi-generational and diverse audiences.

Prizes include mentoring from the festival team to see the winning idea realised at The National Festival of Making, as well as online masterclasses delivered by the Festival Directors and Team. Download the full live brief here.

Who is eligible to apply?

Registered students in post 16 education from any creative or non-creative course and who are currently studying at level 3 or level 4 (level 6 or 7 in Scotland).
