Course summary

Graphic Communication A Level focuses on the production of visually appealing 2-D outcomes that communicate strong messages with a commercial application. The course enables you to experience a wide variety of both new and traditional media, processes and techniques, and allows you to explore artefacts and images from different areas of art, craft and design, from different eras, and across the globe. The course extends and refines your knowledge of the ways in which ideas, emotions and meanings are both communicated and received through a sophisticated understanding of the context, purpose, medium and intended audience of any given brief.
