Loving general foundation! A nice social course and enjoying all the studio time. Tutors are helpful and the workload is manageable. We are part way through our trial blocks and it is interesting to explore all the different specialties we could pursue. Considering animation for next year as the employability rate is higher and it also combines my interest in both computer based drawing and hand drawing. read more

Haven't really learned anything yet, gives you a space for making your art (studio), being around other artists inspires ideas. A lot of self teaching and "learning through doing" rather than direct teaching read more

Pretty sound, though I'd recommend doing most if you're planning to progress into 2nd year. Sem1 I found a big lackluster, but sem2 was great and a brilliant intro into the 2nd year topics of study read more
