Hello!
Welcome to the inaugural SAE Brisbane studio newsletter. This is being sent out to all the local students enrolled in a Studio class in every discipline. The goal behind this is to help you all learn about what cool stuff your fellow students are doing beyond your own discipline. Hopefully this gives you a better idea of what sort of collaborations are possible, and hopefully you’re just interested in what other cool creative stuff is going on around campus.
This first issue is going to be pretty short and sweet since it’s still early in the trimester, but I’ll be sending one out every couple of weeks with more cool stuff. If you have released something you really want included, let your facilitator know, or shoot me an email at [email protected]. Also, each newsletter will be available here if you ever want to look at old ones without diving into the depths of your email inbox.
Studio Mingle
On Wednesday 1st March (Week 4), from 3-5pm, there’s going to be a Studio Mingle in The Void. This will be a chance to catch up face-to-face with students in other disciplines, and start some discussions about collaborations for the rest of the trimester. Find out who’s around, who has what skills, and who you can work with.
Film Studio 2 Works
Over at Doco Loco you can find works created by film students. At the moment, a bunch of Film Studio 2 projects are up. Rats with Wings (Greg Maguire, Angie Fleming), Diving for Treasure (Adam Webb, Mitchell Honey, Clare Watson), and Night Terror (Josiah McGarvie, Josh Melville, Maureen Legara) come with particularly high recommendations!
Audio Studio 1
Renee Park has written a post about getting a new project, “The Camille Project” underway with some collaborators.
Game Design Studio 2
Game Design Studio 2 has been working on some short games that express experiences that are meaningful to them. Jack McClanaghan has been creating a game called Happy Place about dealing with anxiety. Here’s a blog post about what he’s doing, complete with a work-in-progress build of the game you can download and check out.
Game Studio 1
Game Studio 1 are currently working on a short game where they have to reimagine the retro game Berzerk in the style of an assigned artist. Here’s Ruby Simpson’s idea and pitch for her game based on the style of Yayoi Kusama.  
As Studio 1 completes these games over the coming days, you’ll be able to download and play them from the list of entries on itch.io.
Animation Studio 2
Here’s a blog by Bekssketches on researching how to draw and animate eagles.
That’s it for now! Expect a whole bunch more of stuff next time as the trimester starts to ramp up.
