They began with a talk into them and how they came about creating the studio within the first place. It was interesting to see how long, creating something such as this, takes to form because although on the face of it, it looks easy to set up, it's not always as simple as it looks. Money, space and time can become very limiting but not necessarily in a bad way, it can force you to become more creative with building and making things rather than just buying stuff you need, using scrap materials, second hand paint etc. which is ultimately how they ended up with the unique and creative studio they have today.

Both Amy and Rebekah were unbelievably enthusiastic about, not just their work, but everything really. They spoke a lot about just getting out there both you physically but also your work, going to events, exhibitions etc. which means it gives you a chance to potentially get new clients simply through talking to people.

I honestly think that the talk they gave was very inspirational, it put things into perspective and gave me a sense how things work within the real world of design. Showing how not everything is as straight forward as it seems and not everything will be handed to you on a plate, you actually have to go out and make things happen yourself.
One thing I'm definitely going to aim to do within the future, is go to more events, exhibitions, lectures etc. just so that I can talk with more creatives like Amy and Rebekah who will hopefully inspire me even more. But also to gain useful knowledge and to get myself and my work out there.
