About the video: Pushing the Project’s Limits
Overview
“It is in this lesson that we explore whether what we’ve already created here can become the foundation of a larger self-initiated project of our own. The ability to push an idea beyond the expected is something that can be a game-changer for any project. Now, let’s see if we can reveal any new opportunities by pushing the project further.

This is about allowing the concepts we’ve come up with to shape the medium and seeing just how far an idea can go. ”
In this video lesson Nathan Smith addresses the topic: Pushing the Project’s Limits, which is part of the Domestika online course: Aspirational Graphic Design: Create a Better Future. Turn principals into actions and use poster design as a tool to inspire positive change in the world.
