Welcome! Read about the work of our Event Experience and Design students at the HD Festival, their launch of a large-scale event at Fort Amherst and how another student won a design commission.We want our students to be ready for work. We make links between the events industry and the University in each module. Industry leaders are invited to talk about their work and encourage students to debate current issues in the industry. In other modules, students respond to client briefs working on “real life” projects. We look forward to welcoming you to our EED family. Peter Hatton, Director of Events and Experience Design
Leah Stewart, Charlotte Harding and Beth Tabeart worked at the HD Festival with Alex Wilson, our wizard technician. Alex Wilson has his own company, Boxcat, and is in demand at events around the country. The students did a truly outstanding job. All of the local crew was amazed at how much they knew. Bethany was stolen by production to do management tasks and the site crew selected Leah and Charlotte to do techie bits, rigging lights on the main stage. They all worked really hard, and I am proud of all of them. They were truly part of the team. One of the stage manag- ers said: they were better and knew more than some of the crew who have been doing it for years
