This art and design portfolio preparation course, held in our central London art studio, is perfect for students that need to prepare their portfolios from scratch or refine and improve existing ones. It is suitable for students wishing to apply for a Foundation, BA or Master degree

Interview Support

£600.00 (exc. VAT)
Our professional team will prepare you for the interview process, advising you on the most frequently asked questions during an interview and will test you during mock interviews. This will give you an opportunity to strengthen your confidence and know more about how interviews are held.

We are here to help to:

• Organise and reorganise your digital portfolio
• Make your body of work more coherent in selection
• Enhance the impact of your work
• Make you feel more comfortable about your application process
• Provide you with skills for the interview process
• Target your strengths and weaknesses through mock interviews
• Strengthen your abilities by delivering presentations

Editorial Service

£1,000.00 (exc. VAT)
This service is structured so to guide students with the editing and/or translation of their written statements for each project included in their portfolio. Many universities require statements and/or entries to accompany each project in order to clearly state the conceptual framework and ideas that encompass the work presented to them. Therefore, we will also guide students so that they can use the appropriate terminology to enhance the quality of their writing.

Overall, we will:

• Mentor you with the editing of your personal statement
• Target specific terminologies and narratives for your projects and/or artworks
• Assist you with translations and language issues if you are applying from outside of the UK

Digital Portfolio Support

£1,500.00 (exc. VAT)
We will assist you with the preparation of selecting images and their layouts, starting from your photographic material taken from both your sketchbooks and finished projects. We will assist the student using high standard software such as Adobe’s Creative Cloud to enhance the final product.

Remember that digital portfolios are the first thing many universities see, sometimes even before the interview process itself. It is then important that you have a professional digital body of work. At the same time, every college/university has different requirements in what they want to see in a digital portfolio.

Overall, we will:

• Go through your body of work in order to select the appropriate material for your digital portfolio
• Help with rendering your projects in digital format with the help of our photography team
• Support you during the preparation of digital layouts
• Help you with the targeting of the specific requirements of every university from your five choices and edit your work accordingly
• Help you comprehend editorial processes using software such as Adobe Photoshop and InDesignp
