FdA Illustration
A 2 year Illustration degree course, developed in consultation with the design industry, that has the option to top up into the third year of the Graphic Design or Illustration BA at Camberwell.
The course focuses on the generation of graphic images that you interact with or that work in a sequence, through the development of a personal visual language.
Images that you ‘INTERACT’ with are anything from games & events to websites and interactive environments. Images that work in a ‘SEQUENCE’ are anything from graphic novels and zines to animation and motion graphics.
The course is built around regular input from key practitioners:
