Comic & Concept Art BA (Hons)

About

Whether you want to draw stories for graphic novels and comics or create concept art for films or games, our BA (Hons) Comic & Concept Art degree will get you on the right track.

This degree is all about preparing you for the vital role that comic and concept artists play in animation, film, games, comics and other media.

Your imagination and drawing skills will combine to visualise directors' ideas on paper and screen, building your problem-solving skills as you create new and exciting designs.

This course focuses on the pre-production process, and will involve designing assets including characters, creatures, environments, key art illustrations, splash art, weapons and props.

You'll explore these creative briefs through traditional art methods, as well as using digital art tools such as Photoshop, Maya, ZBrush and After Effects.

You have the option to complete a Professional Practice Year as part of this course. This will give you the opportunity to develop your professional, academic and personal potential, equipping you to be confident and engaged in creative workplaces. Employers widely recognise these qualities, and a significant proportion of placement students are offered graduate-level jobs or go onto postgraduate study.

Please note: this course is subject to validation.

How to Apply

If you live in the UK, you should apply through the University and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). You can apply online through the UCAS website.

When applying for our courses, us our institution code - C93.

If you’re from outside the UK, visit our international applications page.

You can submit your UCAS application, from mid-September, the year before your course begins.

The UCAS equal consideration deadline for applications for courses starting in September is normally the last Wednesday in January. We give equal consideration to all applications we receive by this deadline. But, if we still have places available after this date, we'll consider late applications, too.

If you’re from outside the UK, visit our international applications page.

If you apply through UCAS, they'll acknowledge your application and forward it to us. You can track the progress of your application through UCAS Track.

When we get your application (directly, or via UCAS), we’ll send you an email with your login details for the applicant portal. This is where you'll access all the information you'll need through your applicant journey.

If you’re based in the UK, we will then invite you to an in-person portfolio review at an Applicant Day, where you’ll have the chance to get to know your peers, view student work, and gain all the information you need and want about life at UCA.

If you’re located outside of the UK, or if you would prefer not to attend an Applicant Day, you will be able to submit your portfolio digitally. Your portfolio review is an opportunity for you to show us your talents and potential - full advice on how to put together your portfolio can be found here.

We'll send you details on these events through the applicant portal.

UCAS makes background information available to us when they send us your application - this is called contextual data. We will not use this information when making a decision about whether or not to offer you a place at UCA.
