The Three Pillars:
3 Phases of MA Creative Practice
In the ever-changing tapestry of the creative industries, it's not just about what you know but how you apply it. Each of our 12-week phases is a deep dive into a specific area, tailored to give you the practical skills and knowledge you'll need to sustain a lifetime of creative endeavours. These aren't just courses; they are catalysts for your transformation.
ACTION Programme (January - June)
Kickstarted by the POSSIBILITY residential, the ACTION programme is your lab, your playground, your stage. Here, you’ll be guided through weekly online seminars designed to convert your initial ideas into substantial projects. Through the development of your own 'Design for Action' process, this phase serves as the fertile soil in which your projects take root and begin to grow.
ENGAGEMENT Programme (June - September)
Your creative work is only as good as the audience it resonates with. ENGAGEMENT is the phase where you fine-tune the ways in which your work interacts with the world. You'll learn the nuances of using story to leverage various techniques to make your projects not just visible but unforgettable. As you steer the bus of your creative journey, expect to gain an increased sense of direction and control.
BEYOND Programme (September - January)
The finale of your 12-week trifecta, the BEYOND phase, is all about sustainability. It’s one thing to create; it’s another to create something that lasts. During this phase, you will learn how to build a community around your work—a community willing to invest not just time but also resources in what you do. This phase is also a mirror, helping you face your personal barriers to financial success, break them down, and move beyond them.
Each 12-week phase is more than just a course—it's a stepping stone, building on the previous one while laying the groundwork for the next. Your journey through these phases is less a linear path and more a cyclical process of evolution, ensuring that you are constantly growing, learning, and, most importantly, creating.
