Bethany Quote

“I’m loving the course, it’s so varied and has helped me to explore my creative abilities.

The tutors have been fantastic and have really pushed me out of my comfort zone and uplifted me, giving me the confidence to start a role in the industry. I’d love to work in TV and film in the future.”
