Creative Careers Showcase

#iDare... to be creative

Riley, who has previously created content for #iDare, is now exploring creativity with The Platform Project's Creative Careers Course.

Course leader, Jaime says Riley is "a real asset to the running of the course and in supporting participants."

Riley's interest in Comic Cons prompted Jaime to arrange an introduction to Sue, who co-runs the Makeup and Media course at Swindon College, who gave Riley lots of advice on how to move forward with make-up as a profession. Riley picked this theme – water nymph, did the make-up and costume, then modelled for the photoshoot via WhatsApp.

What do you think?
