MA/PgD/PgC Illustration & Animation

... United Kingdom
... Cardiff Metropolitan University

Course Overview

The MA Illustration & Animation programme is designed to enable students to achieve greater flexibility, adaptability, individual responsibility and autonomy as professional artists or researchers. The course aims to develop individuality, creativity, self-reliance, initiative, and the ability to perform in rapidly changing environments as well as increasing competence with research skills and methods which will make graduates highly employable as academics and researchers, or enable them to develop an active and sustained practice as illustrators and animators.

The MA Illustration & Animation course enables graduates, mid-career and professional practitioners from within and outside of the disciplines of Illustration & Animation to negotiate and examine visual communication strategies of practice whilst being able to create their own hybrids of practice that can further enhance the territory that illustration and/or animation can occupy.

All students receive individual PDP tutorials to support employability and life-long learning. Students will be expected to maintain learning journals evidencing continuous visual documentation that integrates self-reflection opportunities to help them develop as effective and confident learners.
