win a melbourne semi-permanent experience!
Over the last eight years, Semi-Permanent has become an institution of the design scenes in Sydney and Melbourne. (In fact, Semi-Permanent has hosted 26 events in total - covering 5 countries.) Students and professionals from all over look forward to the annual line-up of inspirational speakers from both Australia and abroad.
The creative conference covers all disciplines of design, including graphic design, film, fine art, illustration, web design, interactive design, photography, visual effects, animation, graffiti, motion graphics, stop motion, architecture, and its impressive reputation attracts support from the cream of the world's design, art, and media communities.
Quite a few years back (in 2005 I think?!), I was fortunate enough to see Beci Orpin speak at Sydney's Semi-Permanent. She documented a day in her life as a designer, and along the way, talked about the process of working with clients such as Burton to take her designs from initial concepts through to completed products. All these years later I still think back to her presentation & feel inspired!
