This taster day provides students with the experience of working to a brief as part of an interdisciplinary team.

This in-depth taster day with an academic and/or ambassadors, provides students with the experience of working to a brief as part of an interdisciplinary team. Students will deepen their knowledge of the connections between Graphic Design and creative considerations including storytelling, narratives, character designs and sequential art.

Students will consider the question of representation in media as they work in a professional context to complete the project. Students receive a copy of the completed project to take home with them.

Students get to experience our state-of-the-art Daphne Oram building for creative arts which includes industry-spec print studio and Mac rooms.
