Course Information
This course encourages debate over the critical practice of illustration, in relation to its constantly evolving nature. This course involves modules dedicated to screen printing, creative writing, composition, book design but also you will learn about entrepreneurial approach and networking. In order to dive deeper into the practical, real-world experience you will learn about printing, distribution and marketing.
You will also gain insight into the publishing process, allowing you to step out of the theoretical context. The culminating point of your studies is the professional presentation of your work.
"The face-to-face events are extremely well-planned with a mix of practical and inspirational learning. I particularly liked meeting other professional illustrators working in the field, hearing their stories, and knowing their journey makes your own feel real." Deborah Wainright, MA Illustration
