爲培育多元文化創意人才、拓展學生的藝術視野、暸解澳門青年的創業實踐，澳門大學曹光彪書院舉辦「澳門文化模型製作工作坊」。書院學子齊聚澳門3D文創模型工作室「昉·工作室」，由工作坊店主分享其創作歷程和實踐經驗，現場氣氛活躍。

近年來，澳門文化產品創業氛圍愈加濃厚，越來越多本土青年走上文化的傳承和創新發展之路。曹光彪書院學子在工作坊共同體驗了「東望洋燈塔小夜燈」及「澳門街道指示牌」兩期3D澳門文化模型製作活動。店主細心講解從圖紙繪製到模型建構，再到染色的過程。而同學則有機會親身體驗噴漆和手工上色的部份，在過程中體味了手工製作的獲得感，也暸解了文創產品的製作流程與創業實踐。而「昉·工作室」店主亦有着澳門大學歷史系畢業生的身份，更增進了他與同學們的親近感。當他娓娓道來自學3D模型製作，想爲澳門文化建築的保留盡自身一分力時，更讓同學們體會到了青年創業背後的責任與使命。

參與3D文化模型的胡同學表示：「融合文創點子和模型的製作方式更易於年輕一代接受，從而增添文化自信和文化自豪。」而劉同學則認爲：「燈塔和路牌等實物模型的製作需要歷經各環節，在文化、美學和人文基礎上進行設計，從而賦予澳門建築文化全新活力。」

曹光彪書院舉辦“澳門文化模型製作工作坊”活動，期望讓青年創業者與學生面對面交流，促進澳門文創科普與暸解本土創業實踐。

To nurture diversified cultural and creative talents, expand students’ artistic horizons, and understand the entrepreneurial practices of Macau youth, the University of Macau Chao Kuang Piu College organized the “Macau Cultural Model Making Workshop”. Students gathered at The Bright Dawn Studio and the workshop’s owner shared his creative experiences with the participants.

In recent years, the atmosphere of cultural product entrepreneurship in Macau has become stronger, and more and more local youths are embarking on the path of cultural heritage and innovation. Students of CKPC experienced two phases of 3D Macau cultural model-making activities, namely “Guia Lighthouse with Night Light” and “Macau Street Signage”, at the workshop. From drawing to constructing models, from dyeing and painting to hand-painting, the students experienced the rewarding experience of handcrafting cultural models and learned about the process of making cultural and creative products and entrepreneurial practices. The owner of The Bright Dawn Studio, a former History graduate of the University of Macau, also increased the sense of intimacy between him and the students. As he explained how he had learned to make 3D models and wanted to do his part in preserving Macau’s cultural buildings, the students were able to appreciate the responsibility and mission behind youth entrepreneurship.

Student Hu, who participated in the 3D cultural modeling, said, “The integration of making cultural and creative works and models is easier for the younger generation to accept, thus increasing their cultural confidence and pride.” “The production of physical models such as lighthouses and road signs needs to be designed on a cultural, aesthetic, and humanistic basis, thus giving a new vitality to Macau’s architectural culture,” said Student Liu.

The Macau Cultural Model Making Workshop, organized by Chao Kuang Piu College, aims at promoting the popularisation of Macau’s cultural and creative industries and the practice of local entrepreneurship through face-to-face exchanges between young entrepreneurs and students.
