Visualise your Thesis!
So you’ve developed your research pitch? Now, leverage your digital skills to maximise the impact of your pitch and encapsulate your research project in a short, engaging, digital narrative. Working within the VYT template, unleash your creativity to bring colour and visual impact to your narrative through multimedia content such as video, data visualisations or eposters.  Discover digital and media literacy principles for effective research presentations, along with selected tools to create and finesse your multimedia content for inclusion in the template.  
This workshop is designed specifically for candidates who are doing the Visualise your thesis competition, but will be useful for other situations, like the Three Minute Thesis or just to help you make more impactful conference presentations. Suitable for all disciplines and various levels of creativity and digital skills.
