“I chose to study here as I was interested in the part of the course that focused on Unreal Engine.
“We also do modelling and use Adobe After Effects, which I find interesting as well. Either way, these skills I’m learning will help me in the future.
“This course really allows me to push myself and have all of my ideas come out and develop them into something really nice.”
“My favourite project so far has been a video around the student experience at College. We had to interview students and find out what everyday life is like for them.
“This course is teaching me about a lot more about the media industry and what goes into it, which means I can expand on my photography knowledge.
“My dream is to go into the RAF as a Content Creator, where I’d work with pilots in the planes.”
“One of the main reasons I came here is because it has the newest courses around. It also has new facilities, a massive area downstairs, lots of computers, lots of camera, and art tablets to practice drawing on.
“Working with A+C Studios is pretty good. If you go onto their website now, they’ve released the project I was working on. It’s an Italian ad where I created all of the crumbs. I’ve never done something like that, and it’s made me want to do more. I was there making props and designs which is really cool too.”
