Developed directly with industry to ignite the mind of the true creative thinker, you will develop and refine your skills as a digital designer through branding, digital advertising, campaign and social media marketing, animation & motion graphics, app development and product enterprise. Paired with problem solving, consumer driven strategy, digital campaigns and social media platforms, you will explore the full life cycle of a product or service from concept through to market. As graduates you will leave us primed as innovative digital designers. Developed and working closely alongside our Graphic Design degree, this Digital Design & Advertising course offers digital, campaign and commercially focused briefs through shared modules. We offer subjects including: • digital image-making • digital layout • motion graphics • animation • branding & campaign design • social media design • web & app design • digital advertising • 3D & CGI design During the programme you will be encouraged to submit to national and international competition briefs, such as those set by Design & Art Direction (D&AD), Young Creatives Network and You Can Now (YCN) amongst others. Regular live projects and guest speakers from industry will enhance your portfolio and learning. Collaborative projects and placement opportunities are encouraged during your study to establish yourself as an emerging designer within this growing and fast paced industry. You will have the opportunity to develop and incorporate other areas into your practice such as photography and 3D design. You will have the creative freedom to experiment with exhibition design and collaborate with other programmes to enhance your portfolio, as well as engage in live projects from leading international design and advertising agencies. We work with Visualsoft, Luxxlabs, LSM, 88 Design, Boho Zone & Narrative. Once you have developed your base knowledge, you will build your own design direction as you begin to specialise in your chosen field. Your final year is more industry-focused as you begin independent and self-directed projects, developing your individual voice as a digital designer.
