Why drawing?
Drawing is a skill that’s highly valued in the creative industries. Everyone from video game concept artists to theatre set designers use drawing as a key tool in their work.
“In our experience, observational drawing is not encouraged or endorsed within the curriculum and as such it can be very hard for young people to demonstrate that they have developed this skill.
Having a benchmark from UAL that gives young people, their parents, further/higher education and employers the same understanding of what this skill encompasses would be hugely valuable to us.”
– Amy Smith, Head of Talent, Film – Framestore
