Course Content

This course is based around a wide range of approaches to the development of your own work in relation to both illustration and animation.

Drawing is a key element that will underpin your studies but you will also study a range of approaches to both disciplines so that you can begin to develop your own signature style.

Your course will be primarily based on the development of your studio practice but you will also have lectures, seminars and workshops.

A range of assessment methods will be used in conjunction with clearly defined coursework tasks. Your work will be assessed by subject specialists who, after grading the submission, will be available to give you feedback.

Where appropriate you are encouraged to work with writers or experts in related disciplines. You will credit all participants and must be able to demonstrate your particular contribution to any external collaborative project.
