Exhibition
Photography - Encountering the Land
This year at Pathways, we are holding an exhibition of the Second Year BA Digital Media Production 'Photography and Video Production' module, displaying their final still image series'.
The open brief, Encountering the Land, encouraged creative risk taking and individual interpretation. This resulted in a wide range of experimentation with the interaction between different environments and their inhabitants.
The final pieces will be arranged by the students themselves and displayed as part of the Pathways event.
Register for free today, or show up on the day, and see what they've created!
360 Video - Harmony Works
And that's not all! In this exhibit, the Second Year BA Digital Media Production students have partnered with Harmony Works as part of their 'Immersive Digital Design' Module to create 360 Interactive Videos of their project and vision.
These videos explore the journey of the Canada House building, from undergoing several occupations before being abandoned, to becoming a future hub for music and performance in Sheffield.
Join us for free at Pathways to put on a VR headset and take a step into the future of Canada House as Harmony Works!
