CLAIRE PARKER – FLOCK TALKS//
Claire Parker kicked off our 1st Flock Talks// last Friday. Here are some pics if you missed it. The video will be available soon on our Flock YouTube channel.
See below our associate lecturer and creative friend Mr Vince Walden (https://studiowalden.co.uk) in deep discussion with our #UoCFlockTalks speaker, Claire Parker, ex Creative Director of Design Bridge New York and Amsterdam. Sat on our ‘F’ Flock sheep Jack Black & Meg White. 😄
Claire shared her creative journey, including an arts foundation right here at the University of Cumbria’s Brampton Road Campus, to Singapore and New York in front of a packed theatre of students and fellow creatives.
Her five key creative points, believe in magic, be curious, measure once cut twice and tell great stories with maximum meaning minimum means - whilst always being a northern lass at heart.
Thank you Claire for the #friday inspiration! 🙌
NEXT UP:
Craig Oldham, ‘Doing it all but doing it right’. Friday 8 March @11am, Main Lecture Theatre, University of Cumbria, Brampton Campus, Carlisle CA3 9AW.
