We\'ve put together some simple notes to help you prepare:Your portfolio
  • Be selective about the work you show while continuing to show a range of skills and ability
  • Show mostly recent work that you are most proud of
  • Consider how to present your work and the impression the overall look of your portfolio will have on the viewer
  • We like to see lots of work but don\'t overfill your portfolio - you should be able to carry it by yourself!
  • You do not need to bring large pieces of 3D work, photographs are sufficient
Sketchbooks are extremely important. They should be a \'diary\' of your thinking and include observational and speculative drawings/sketches communicating a visual sensitivity. We also look for evidence of how you develop and work through your ideas. Include photographs and collected images and importantly your reaction to them, but avoid letting your sketchbooks be merely scrapbooks.Your interviewThe interview itself usually lasts about 15 minutes, but please allow an hour as this usually includes a tour of our facilities. We use the interview to allow us to find out more about you, to better understand your aspirations and interests and for you to learn more about us. The interview will explore why you want to study the subject with us, there will be no trick questions, so don\'t be too nervous.
