Data-Driven Animation Workshop

Adobe Creative Jam

The Adobe Creative Jam came to USC SCA on February 1, 2017! It was an inspiring design experience that celebrated Hench-DADA creativity! 10 student design teams from Hench-DADA competed in the Adobe Creative Jam tournament, a week-long, motion design showdown on the theme of "Perception." After only one week of collaborative image-making, the teams took the stage to share their creations. Audience members then voted on each submission and selected the People's Choice Winner.
