The coolest design workshop during Beijing design week

As one of the most significant academic activities of Beijing Design Week, Design Day Marathon (DDM) is a major international competition jointly held by Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology and many other universities domestic and overseas. It has been four years since 2016, with about 600 participating students, covering more than 100 institutions. Committed to promoting a win-win situation between enterprises and academia, Design Day Marathon allows teachers, students and experts in the industry gather together to brainstorm and find solutions to design problems of enterprises and institutions. It also provides an effective channel of design talents for enterprises.

This year, let’s discover our wellness during ONLINE life

During the pandemic, we have moved our daily operations and teachings online. Therefore, you must feel that you are more and less like a “Internet Celebrity". In view of this, we are planing to set Design Day Marathon 2020 as a "Live Broadcast" workshop and launch a knowledge-based online program with the theme of “Thank God I'm Doing Pretty Well”to show your resilience of work and living during the past days of 2020.
We name this multi-programs workshop as Marathon Live Jam. It's like an open, fun and mobile market. Individual teachers or schools can apply for a 1-2 hours program upon request, and host a "program booth" during the Design Day Marathons in mid-September.We will rely on platforms either Streamyard or OSB for broadcasting, and the content will be pushed to the main streaming platforms both China and Worldwide.

Mobile Workshop, Live Music, Panel Discussion. You decide!

If the uncertainty of the venue, travel, and the variable contents are the challenges of this year's marathon, then those will be a great opportunity for teachers to use live media to host knowledge-based programs as well, combining hot topics with interesting programs such as: Lifestyle During Pandemic, Remote Work Platforms, Hands-on Video Shooting Tutorial, Virtual Roundtables, Live Commerce, Digital Education Tools Sharing, etc.

Host your show by representing Schools or Institutes
We will have two live channels in Chinese and English. Even if the teachers are not familiar with the Streamyard platform we recommend, the program can be completed through ZOOM or Tencent Meeting. At present, we have completed internal testing to ensure that there are no problems.

The programs are both Chinese and English and will be broadcasted live in parallel in two streaming media channels. We will collect the program plans proposed by the teachers or schools before July, and give a sufficient time to prepare. Each registered program is 1-2 hours. The entire design marathon in 2020 will be completed within two days, from 10:00 to 22:00 on Saturday and Sunday in mid-September.
