We're delighted to present our relaunched Creativity for Coders course! This is a short, powerful little toolkit to help you form and develop creative ideas consistently drawing from Yann's experience in education and theatre.
Drawing a blank coming up with ideas? Stuck? Going around in circles? Don't know where to start? We'll prove to you that creativity is a skill that you can practice and get better at, and help you train your creative muscles.
All you need is a pen, paper and something to keep time with.
You'll be introduced to a power suite of tools and techniques. Some are form the corporate world like Brainstorming and SCAMPER. Some of them are theatre techniques like Yes And and Once Upon A Time. Some of them are writing techniques like Zero Draft
So if that sounds helpful to you and you have a couple of hours to spare, sign up today!
