BUILD YOUR PORTFOLIO (FREE)

Arts University Plymouth’s 4-day Build Your Portfolio Course is aimed at 15-18 year olds and is designed to help you create a diverse range of work and build the skills you need to present a strong creative portfolio to the universities of your choice.

Get stuck into a range of workshops, from life drawing to 3D sculpture.

If you need to build your creative portfolio in preparation for university portfolio submissions, this FREE 4 day course will guide you through a range of subjects and small projects that will help you create work you can be proud to show your prospective university. On top of this, you will have the opportunity to photograph your 3D work professionally, and you will also learn how to present your work within the portfolio confidently.

We are working on an exciting programme of activities, which will be released in the coming weeks, that in the past have covered a range of the following subjects:

life drawing
digital photography
still life
film/sound
3D sculpture
