Summary
MAKERS is
my response to the gap between learning a skill and
working professionally..
MAKERS Institute of Creative Practice is designed to address a gap experienced firsthand in the creative industry: there is no shortage of tutorials and conventional training, but there is still a significant gap between learning a creative skill and becoming capable of working professionally.
We are not building another design school where students spend months learning software and eventually receive a certificate. We are building a creative practice ecosystem where people learn, make, receive critique, work on real briefs, interact with professionals, build portfolios and develop the ability to create value in the real world.
