The first year of study is devoted to involvement in the specifics of creative activity.
The main task of this stage is to provide students with the opportunity to try all visual instruments and techniques, develop creative thinking skills, experience in practice the maximum number of development methods creativity.
The program is built on the principle of the design method. This means that students gain skills not in the process of studying individual disciplines, but in the course of working on projects dedicated to studying the specifics of various design formats: development poster, logo, own alphabet, animated character, as well as the creation of a variety of 3D models, clothing design, creation of modern art objects and scenography.
For each of the five projects included in the first year of study, detailed assignment briefs will be prepared in English and Russian. We will also introduce students to professional terminology in English. Separate master classes and workshops will be conducted in English by teachers of British programs (Foundation and BA).
The second year is devoted to specialization. Students can choose the most interesting direction for further development of artistic qualities, and namely: Illustration / Photography / Fashion design / Textile design / 3D modeling & Sculpture / Fine Art.
