"summary": "This top up has been structured around collaborative project-based work and live-briefs using different mediums to prepare you for the complexities and breadth of industry. At level 6, we believe that the relationship between you and your lecturers is a working partnership, with ongoing teaching, advice, support but also independence to experiment. Alongside studio practice, set lectures and workshops are scheduled to introduce and consolidate contextual and practical work and ultimately enhance and enrich your past education. \n\nYou will have the opportunity to simulate ‘real-world’ ways of working, which impact meaningfully on your personal and creative development. This could be via a national competition brief, a client led project or by working with others from disciplines not traditionally linked to the arts. You will also build your contextual research and narratives into an illustrated book, a lasting showcase of your theoretical and practical skillset. You will be grounded with Advanced Visual Studies, exploring different applications of visual language and ideas generation. \n\nYou will learn how to enhance the aesthetic and commercial value of your personal images and how to be more innovative. Not only will you create bodies of work in illustration, typography, graphic design and animation, you will also be prepared to be able to work within the field, confidently presenting and conversing with clients. You will be encouraged to continually reflect and build up your own personal development and self-promotion as a creative and ethical practitioner. \n\nThe course runs for 1 year Full-Time ,12 hours per week.\n\nCareer options include: \n\nGraphic Design, Illustration, Concept Art, Motion Graphics, Production Art, Advertising, Marketing, Web Design, Social Media Marketing, Publishing, Print making, Screen printing, Interior Design, Fine Art, Games Design, Animation, Creative directing, Art Exhibitions and Events, Gallery Curation, Visual Merchandising. \n\nProgression :Employment into Industry, further academic study such as an MA. \n\nFor further information please contact us by visiting the contact page on the college website.\n\nAlthough every care has been taken to ensure that the information contained within this document is accurate, there may be changes to this programme and provision. We will endeavour to keep prospective and current students updated where appropriate and when the information becomes available. ",
