The Level 5 Design for Film – Portfolio Preparation course is ideal for students who want to create a strong portfolio for progression into Design for Film studies, or other art and design based third level courses. Working in a supportive classroom environment, learners explore a variety of mediums and techniques while developing a personal creative style. Through hands-on projects, students build a portfolio that demonstrates their interest in film design, creativity, and idea generation.

Students will experiment with techniques, developing projects in model making, set and prop design, character creation, and other design processes that help communicate their creative vision.

In the Level 5 Art, Craft & Mixed Media course, students will have the opportunity to explore their individual creative interests through a wide variety of artistic processes. Working in a studio-style classroom environment, learners can experiment, share ideas, and develop their own personal style while engaging with both traditional and contemporary techniques. Students will work with a broad range of materials and methods, including collage, embroidery, printmaking, painting, drawing, sculpture, relief techniques, and mixed-media approaches.

The course leads to a QQI Level 5 Award in Art. Graduates will have the option to progress to the Level 6 Art course within the college. Students will also take part in the end-of-year exhibition, gaining experience in presenting and showcasing their work professionally.
