Course Content:
The HNC is a unitized course that is structured around a series of projects. These will include visual communication and Ideas generation techniques alongside a range of fine art and studio techniques such as Drawing & Painting, Sculpture, Printmaking, Installation, Digital and Time Based Media.
These are structured to take you through from the initial stages of research to realising your ideas through a variety of Fine Art Practices.

Subjects will be taught by a team of tutors who have professional specialist knowledge in these subjects. You will also be given guidance on good professional practice where you will have opportunities to show and present your work internally and externally throughout the year.

Context will also be a key aspect of this qualification where you will study cultural history that informs current thought and debate within art, craft and design. The emphasis will be on research, study skills and on you acquiring source material and knowledge. You will develop your knowledge of visual language through the critical analysis and evaluation of the work of contemporary and historic artists, craft workers and designers.

You will experiment with a range of traditional and non-traditional materials and processes including digital image processing and you will begin to understand the theoretical and practical knowledge of historical and contemporary ideas in your own work.

Your projects will also have a professional context and will allow you to present and promote a portfolio of work to professional standards.
Assessment Methods:
The course is assessed through a range of assessment methods including written essays or reports, presentations, portfolio and sketch book work. There are deadlines for assignments throughout the course which you will need to meet to continue and gain the qualification.
