Students will undertake a wide range of projects, including professionally guided assignments, research into the industry, as well as the production of a professional-style portfolio.
The Salisbury campus has outstanding studio space standards and facilities that enable students to gain experience of working with industry-standard equipment. Students will work in fully equipped studios, including traditional darkrooms, and will use professional-standard cameras and lighting equipment. Students will also have the opportunity to use the latest digital imaging software, alongside more traditional techniques for post-production work, thus increasing the opportunities for creative solutions to contemporary communication challenges.
