well done to the winners - thanks to all who took part - the winning designs are displayed online here:
The Prize
The six winners will be invited to take part in a 2-day design workshop with local designer Lynne Strachan of Curious Cranberry Designs, where they will work on three final designs - a bittie like the Apprentice, but Alan Sugar won't be shouting at anyone! ;-)
This workshop will take place during the October Holidays - 22-23 Oct, 2007 at the Aberdeen College IT Centre. Principal Rae Angus has kindly agreed that the winners can use the College's IT Centre and their state of the art Apple Mac computers to create the final designs.
All entrants should ensure that they are available to come into Aberdeen on these dates, and that their parents agree. The winners will enjoy hospitality from the College over their two days, with refreshments and the like. Lynne and the IT Centre staff will be there to supervise them. There will be a publicity launch when the winners arrive, David Atherton (Aberdeenshire Council Arts Education Officer) and I will be there to welcome them. Parents are advised that they will have to transport the winning pupils to Aberdeen, unless alternative arrangements can be made.
We hope this will be an enjoyable day and that the winners will get a real working experience of designing a project brief.
Finished Designs
The three final designs will be used on the three sets of CDs which will be at the school/or public libraries, and in the North East Folklore Archive, Mintlaw.
