Foundation Degree in Scenic Arts - NA

Our industry-led course will give you all the skills you need to create stage sets, backdrops and props for public performances and work on major television and film projects. Guided by a team of staff who are experienced professionals, you’ll learn all the main workshop practices of the stage and screen industries. These practices include fundamental painting and texturing techniques, prop making, metalwork and how to use tools and other relevant equipment – such as core computer skill training (specialising in fusion360 and Auto Cad), which will allow you to operate laser cutters, 3D printers and computer numerical control (CNC) equipment. You’ll then put your newfound knowledge into practice, where you’ll have several work placements – both in College productions and with our industry partners, who create sets and props for some of the country’s biggest productions. The only course of its kind outside London, it provides a welcoming, safe environment where you can experiment and really push your creative boundaries. You’ll emerge as a specialist in your discipline, ready to flourish in this ever-changing, demanding industry.
