1. Leeds College of Art
Leeds college of art do a undergraduate programme called "BA (hons) Illustration." This course seems relevant to what I'd like to do when I leave, hence forth the course name being 'illustration' and me being interested in it. However, because I don't want to entirely limit what I want to finally end up doing; I am looking for a course that has many other opportunities within it.
About the course
When on this course, you are being exposed to everything from; packaging, editorial and publishing, to story boards, character design and comic strip. You work with professional illustrators and the industry; yet when you come to graduation, you have a wide range of career options. They focus on working on us developing as an illustrators as appose to teaching us how to draw.
2. Manchester School of Art
The course held at Manchester School of Art is named "BA (hons) Illustration with Animation". I am particularly interested in this course due to is also incorporating animation within the illustration course. This would enable me to study for more, potentially opening a larger field if I liked the animation side also. Along side that; by having more skills on my CV, would potentially attract more employers and make me look more employable.
