In this interactive workshop, the team behind BBC MakerBox will present their tools for creating interactive and responsive media experiences and how you can get free access to them.

You could use the MakerBox tools to turn your everyday devices into a web of speakers or to create your own interactive videos and responsive experiences.

The team (presenting via Zoom) will introduce the tools, how they work, and show how you can get involved in the MakerBox community to share your ideas and experiences with other creatives.

The second half of the session will give you the opportunity to generate and workshop your own interactive projects and ideas.
