Course info
By exploring innovative photographic, 3D rendering and visual effects technologies, this course exploits the camera's, and hence the photographer's, new versatility. But digital image making on this course extends beyond the purely photographic, dealing with the technologies of motion graphics, 3D visualisation, interactive media, visual arts, and even live installations. You will have the opportunity to work collaboratively with visual designers, programmers and technologists. The course will also encourage the development of broad academic, industrial and management skills for digital imaging practitioners who have previously focused predominantly on narrow technical or artistic concerns.

How much will it cost?
Full-time tuition fees range from around £2,800 to £6,000 per year. Most full-time courses tend to cost around £2,800 per year, while laboratory-based courses tend to be more expensive. Part-time tuition is less per year, often around £900.

Entry Requirements
In addition to the scheme entry requirements, you will require either a first degree in a media/arts related subject with evidence of a substantial technological component or in a technological subject with evidence of creative ability or a relevant professional qualification with supporting evidence of appropriate work through a professional portfolio. Applications are encouraged from people who do not possess any of these formal qualifications but who have the ability, knowledge and intellectual ability to benefit from the scheme.
