At the core of this pathway we challenge the notion that visual communication is a neutral activity only supplying the demands of the market. By studying here, you take issue with the content and the context of your design work. We help you define and develop your own study project, to combine your ideas, experience and interests, and communicate with a particular audience or group of people.
Our students come from around the world, because we critically engage with visual culture as part of a dynamic, global process. Through tutorials, seminars and critiques, the communication of ideas develops a key skill for your professional practice in the future. Celebrating the openness and fluid interaction that characterise the design profession, we welcome creative influences and draw inspiration from other fields including architecture, art, cinema, economics, history, literature, music, philosophy, science and technology.
Presentations, discussion and debate take place in the studio and lecture theatre. But we also go out and use London as an expanded learning environment, with study visits to exhibitions, production facilities and places of creative encounter including public meeting areas, independent coffee bars and music stores. Anticipating your future success, we introduce you to some of the social and professional networks that continue to build the reputation of London as a world leader in the creative industries.

Concentrating on individual's actions in modern society I am questioning how we are being manipulated and how our life, our decisions or emotions are shaped by the environment we are living in. If "perception is reality" we should question the veracity of our perceptions about "real" and consider how much our "reality" is being controlled and manipulated.

The conflict between different cultures will never end; some visual symbols of China have been used as an important tool when people want to show the conflict. My project is based on the recreation of some pictures that may cause people look back between western and Chinese culture and the conflicts within the past twenty years.

I aim to creating movie posters to reflect my understanding of poster design theory over region, period and particular genre. Developing movie posters concentrating on no more then three 20th century historic periods, which will help me to gain a better literal understanding of Visual Culture, mood and themes of the poster.

Time maze. Lenticular poster 101.5cm*71.5cm
Are you controlled by time in the modern forever changing life?
My research is about 'The correlation of transitional meaning between image and space', and focus on cultural identity and time concept between 2-dimensional image and 3-dimensional space. 'Time corner' was one of my experimental works; also intend to stimulate people's attention about time directions and corner connotation through visual communication.
