RPS + Jack Latham Collaboration
Digital Media students received a master class from renowned British photographer, Jack Latham, on photo projects, editing and selecting work. This launched and geared up their follow-up project on the Sugar Paper Theories with The Royal Photographic Society. In turn, their involvement led to students producing and publishing a photobook of their own work, inspired by the projects.

Career Progression.
On completion of this course, you will have the strong practical skills and knowledge of the working industry needed to progress to university, higher education courses, high level apprenticeships or even entry in the work place.
Students progressing to university from this course are often better equipped than students that have studied A Levels because of the time management skills that are needed to complete a diploma and portfolio based assessments.
By the time you leave us, you will have skills in collaboration, communication, creativity and problem solving, this means you are also able to apply for courses outside of Digital Media Production, having completed the diploma. If you decide you want to study something different, you will still be able to apply for a range of arts, humanities and social science courses. Past students have gone on to study subjects such as Business, Sociology, Fine Art and Sports Journalism.
