"I've found great success in developing my skills from traditional Art and Design in Level 3. Moving onto Level 4 has shown me that my undying passion is for Graphic Media and Communication!

"Throughout my course, I have been able to advance my use of Adobe Photoshop, Adobe XD, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Indesign. Pairing with my technical skills in 3D modelling, I have created a great portfolio of work."

At this year's Creative Student Showcase, we caught up with Lewis Shaw a student from our University Centre who has advanced to degree level study right here in Halifax ๐Ÿ™Œ
