Do you enjoy being creative but would benefit from the extra strand of designing for purpose? Graphic Design is all around us and an important part of everyday life. We will guide you towards developing your own visual language. Taking inspiration from historical and contemporary influences, you will learn to contextually analyse work from a range of different design movements to inspire your own design journey. Our programme of study will help you to develop technical skills with freehand artistic techniques, such as drawing and printing, as well as utilising digital photography and computer-generated skills (Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator) to create polished design conclusions. Graphic communication opens the door to many exciting and rewarding careers in the creative, commercial and media industries.
Grade 6 or above in GCSE Art or another Art and Design discipline. Students without this should be able to demonstrate an interest in an area of Art and Design through some examples of their creative work.
