<br/>- Learn how to collaborate on the design and promotion of media products — mirroring industry practice and boosting your employability<br/><br/><br/>- Take advantage of cutting-edge technology such as 3D printers, motion capture software and virtual reality headsets in our fully equipped Digital Design Lab<br/><br/><br/>- Complete professional commercial work on client-based projects to build your online portfolio throughout your degree<br/><br/><br/>- Gain experience in diverse sectors such as games design, animation, advertising and photography<br/><br/><br/>If you can see yourself creating the next smash-hit mobile game like Pokémon Go, designing innovative advertising campaigns for leading international brands or interactive, virtual reality experiences for a tech company then this could be the degree for you. In an area that is still inventing itself, you could become a key instigator and shaper of the digital age that we now inhabit.<br/><br/>In fact, there has never been a more exciting time to study an area of design and creative technology, and this programme aims to help you explore, challenge and extend your limits, enabling you to achieve the most exciting outcomes possible.<br/><br/>Digital Media Design at Winchester focuses predominantly on the practical side of the industry, embracing the latest technologies and techniques. We want to help you become an imaginative and technically astute designer who is comfortable working as part of a team.<br/><br/>The three-year course is centred around our gadget-packed, industry-standard Digital Design Studio, which is Adobe certified and offers courses in Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash and other software.<br/><br/>Throughout the programme, students develop the ability to understand the imperatives of designing for the digital media industries in terms of the look, feel, narrative and aesthetic qualities of a digital media product.<br/><br/>Year 1 is based around the design and development of websites, apps and games. You complete four-week projects designing and promoting a media product and study core modules in subjects such as Design Principles, Team & Project Planning and Development Projects.<br/><br/>In Year 2, you focus on interactive media design and animation, embracing live projects with clients — giving you valuable work experience. You take core courses in Design and Design Practice.<br/><br/>In Year 3, you study business practice within the creative digital media industry, and undertake two major projects — one of which is conducted with an industry partner — to develop a dynamic online portfolio to impress future employers.<br/><br/>By the end of the programme you are a highly skilled technologist, capable of receiving design ideas to develop and improve through to a finished and accomplished product.<br/><br/>Demand for creative technologists to work on websites, apps, games and other digital platforms has never been higher. Our graduates work in highly-rewarding and varied careers, as designers with internet companies, interactive media creators, and in the game design, animation, advertising and photography industries. Others start their own design companies as creative technologists and entrepreneurs.
