I have applied for this course and January 2013 and the process included writing a personal statement, sending them my CV, references written by a tutor and an employer.
That was the first stage of the application process. After aproximately two weeks, I received an email from the Universtity asking me to send them a portfolio of images in order to be evaluate. I decided straight away that I was going to submitt concert photography related imagery.
The photos I submitted were the following:
Yet again, two weeks later I received an email informing me that I was selected for an interview via Skype with one of the tutors on the course. Words cannot describe how excited I was.
The interview was great. We talked about photography in general, what my practice is about, why I choose to submit concert photography in particular and what my future career plans would be.
After the interview, on the exact same day, I received a conditional offer letter informing me that I had been offered a place on the course, starting with September 2013. In order to achieve that, I have a 2.1 or a 1st degree. I am doing my best in order to fullfill that request.
Moving to London is going to be good for my practice and career because the opportunities and jobs are increased. In addition to that, concerts take place in London on a regular basis and attending them whilst living in the city would definitely make things easier for me as I wouldn't have to travel as much as I do at the moment, communting from Thanet. I am looking forward to that.
