WOMEN IN CrEATIVE TECHNOLOGIES CLUB

1. Hey club, tell us about yourself!

2022 marked the beginning of Women in Creative Technology. The mission of our club is to serve as a voice for women who are pursuing careers, or studying, or interested in the creative technology industries. We are also able to provide a stage for our members to exhibit and display their skills. Through the use of innovative technology, we can collectively help empower and assist women.

2.

What kind of activities are popular in your club?

Our community gets very passionate when talking about Game Design. As a result, we are holding a series of free gaming workshops, facilitated by some talented women. We set out to create a game that would pay tribute to a remarkable woman in the history of computersthe first programmer, Ada Lovelace.

The club is currently offering workshops, seminars, and training sessions that help members develop skills and knowledge in creative technologies. This can improve their competitiveness in the job market. Additionally, the club provides a community where women interested in creative technologies can share ideas, collaborate on projects, and offer each other support. In the future, the club hopes to become a platform for women to network with industry professionals, which can lead to internships, jobs, and other opportunities. Join us on this journey of discovery and growth in creative technologies!

3. Why is this club important?

Our club may be new, but we've wasted no time in making our mark in the performing arts world. This year, we pushed the boundaries of traditional theatre by incorporating cutting-edge augmented reality technologies into our 2023 Fringe show. The result was a visually stunning and immersive experience that left audiences amazed and enthralled. We're proud to say that our efforts paid off, as we received a glowing 4-star review from a respected critic. This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our talented team, who are constantly striving to innovate and push the envelope in the world of art. So, what's the secret of our club? It's simple: we're passionate about what we do, and we're always looking for new and exciting ways to bring our creative vision to life.

4. What’s a ‘secret’ no one knows about your club?

Women in Creative Technologies play a crucial role in utilising technology to create captivating and entertaining experiences. Women have traditionally been more prominent in creative fields such as art and design, yet they still face underrepresentation in areas like game design and technology-focused roles within creative industries. However, we believe creativity is a powerful force that can inspire, challenge, and transform the world we live in. It has the potential to bring about change and make a positive impact in countless ways. At our club, we recognize the significance of fostering a community that promotes and celebrates the creativity of women in technology. We strive to provide a supportive platform that encourages our members to pursue their passions and express their unique voices through innovative and imaginative uses of technology.
