Creative Technologies (Games, Multimedia & Graphics)

This one-year Level 4 Creative Technologies course prepares learners for work across the digital creative industries. Its main strands are games design, multimedia production and graphics, and students can narrow their focus towards character art, video production, graphic work or visual arts. Teaching is project-based. Across three substantial projects, learners move from research and skills development into a final production in their chosen specialism. Sessions take place in a creative industries centre where studios are kitted out with Adobe software, Unity, Unreal and Blender, giving practical experience with the tools used across the sector. Graduates can progress to higher education, move into freelance creative work or find employment in the digital creative sector. The course suits aspiring designers, content creators and games artists who want a practical foundation before specialising further.
