I've learned a lot and developed in lots of ways through this course. It's challenging me in skills I already have and in the way I do things. I really enjoy it because it's a chance to get together with lots of other creative people and see their work and get their perspective on yours. Definitely recommend it, it's a great experience for self-development and for gaining knowledge and experience in fine arts.
Easy. I did not have much difficulty. I previously completed a Certivicate 1 in visiaul arts and certificate 4 in fine arts.
But it's not that expensive (the course itself), although some of the tools are, but I had most of it already.
I'm doing the course part time. But there is still quite a lot of home activities and research. You have to pretty switched on and don't let yourself fall behind, because it's more difficult trying to catch up rather than just keep up. There's a lot of theory taught in the course too, but I like the practical side better. The teachers know their stuff and are willing to help.
The campus is really nice and leafy, we join onto UWS. There are shops nearby and a canteen onsite. There's lots of nooks to sit in, but most of the time we sit around the canteen. Besides that there aren't many other facilities... but the people in the course are nice and I've made some great friends.
I need to research this further. I'm doing the course more as a personal growth thing, I wanted to develop my skills and be challenged. I think there are opportunities, I just haven't had a serious look into it yet.
