Day 4 (Week 4)

LECTURE - Intellectual Property Rights Part 1
This week's lecture is all about intellectual property rights. Ania gave a detailed insight on copyrights mainly copyrights in the UK. This is very important to me as I have little to no knowledge on how copyright works and how to obtain one. I wonder if non-profit fan-made works based on existing intellectual property is legal or not in the west. In Japan however, fan-made works are actually encouraged because the intellectual property owners believe that these content creators will be the future of the industry.

GUEST SPEAKER - Nimble Ape
Dan Jenkins, an alumni from our university, returned and gave us a talk on developing ourselves for industry. He told us his journey from studying in university to opening his own company. Dan also explained what his company does (which was mainly web development). 

His presentation mirrored what we (the students) are going through right now and will be experiencing in the near future.
