Student samples work experience at Apollo

This week we have had a student from a local school on work experience. A year 10 student from The Forest School, has been using his interest in art to help design a new company logo, product posters and graphics for the Apollo Ensemble software.

He produced some great paintings which we will be using with the Ensemble software as background images for two of our ready made themes, 'jungle' and 'under the sea'.

In between all his other jobs this week he managed to create a Christmas card for us, stay tuned for yours!

Scribble New Media Orchestra

The Scribble New Media Orchestra has been put together by Music Links in Kendal, Cumbria. Using a whole range of musical instruments, sessions are open to 13 to 18 year olds with the aim to have fun and make music. The Orchestra includes an Apollo Ensemble kit including the Ensemble16 and a range of switches, helping make music accessible to all abilities.

The project also makes use of the Mobile Interactive Lighting and Sound system designed in collaboration with KidsOut.
