Course Overview

Our course encompasses two distinct practical themes - concept art and comic art, both of which focus on fundamental, traditional art skills and contemporary digital techniques. In concept art, you will be helped to master a range of industry-focused tools and techniques for developing pre-production, production, and post-production art for the film and video game industries. In comic art, you will develop a practical understanding of idea generation, visual storytelling, and visual communication. These two themes mean you will access a wide range of creative possibilities and opportunities. They are underpinned by contextual studies to inform and enhance your practice through an exploration of the historical, cultural, and social contexts of the wider world of print and web-based comic arts, graphic novels, and visual communication.
