Make Shift

Make Shift is a space for 18-30 year old creatives to come together in the Pervasive Media Studio at Watershed on the first Tuesday evening of each month. This is an opportunity to meet other creatives in the city, use one of our hot desk spaces, seek advice on your creative project or next steps in your career in a welcoming environment.

Each month we have a guest from the Pervasive Media Studio who works professionally in the creative industries who will speak about their work and can give advice. Guest speakers will be experts in their field, from VR film makers to finance professionals.

Our guest for March's edition of Make Shift is Marcus Smith. Marcus is a Producer at the National Film and Television School as well as BCFM Radio. He recently created an immersive AR map of Bristol, a free, entertaining and interactive storytelling experience called StoryTrails.
