Student profile

Jemma Blake

I studied AVCE Art & Design (replaced by Art and Design BTEC National Diploma) as I wasn't sure which aspect of art I wanted to develop. Doing this course gave me the opportunity to experiment with all aspects of Art & Design, including Photography. As a result, I have decided to take photography at university and I aim to specialise in cinematography.
