During my time at Thomas Rotherham
College I took both Graphic Communication and Fine Art.
After finishing my A Levels I went to
Sheffield Hallam University to do a Graphic Design degree and I chose this
university because it has one of the most creative courses that is similar to
how work is done at Thomas Rotherham. When applying for uni (your portfolio)
and in your first year, they are not looking at your final outcomes or if you
have Photoshop skills, because you can easily learn them, but they look for
your creativity! The courses at Thomas Rotherham prepared me so much because
they teach you different mediums such as Screen Printing, Lino and Intaglio
ect, which is the same mediums that they use at uni, so I had a head start.
Also at uni you have to work independently a lot more and make decisions for
yourself, I know it feels like Sarah, Bev and Lyn nag you to do more work at
home but this prepares you for your independent study time at uni. When I have
finished uni I hope to become a Graphic Designer or Illustrator and maybe set
up my own company.
(I don’t currently have any pictures of my work because I
have two deadlines in 11 days)
