Links for E-ON Mini Project Friday 28 Nov
Here are some of the links from the Thursday Morning Session collected by Jonathan. The idea for the mini project is to create a response, and an experimental response is encouraged, to the 48 hour protest against the power company E-ON. Protests will be going on during 28th and 29th of November and the one in Coventry is focused on the UK headquarters for E-ON which is situated on the Westwood Business Park.
The idea for the mini project is to create a media response that is no more than 3mins in length, this is to be done in small groups, within the small groups you can work on individual elements and then bring the elements together. The work produced in the small groups can be added to the work of others within the larger groups to be shown next Friday the 5th of December.
