  • Taking a trip down memory lane, going through my old portfolio I created during my foundation year at Central Saint Martins (2017-2018) which I then used to apply for my BA degrees. I am currently still studying in Central Saint Martins as a first-year student on the BA Fashion Communication and Promotion course.
    I hope this video was helpful for some of you, and if you have any further questions feel free to private message me through Instagram or leave the questions down in the comment below!

    Hi, thank you so much for your sharing. I just graduated from BA Fashion Imaging and Illustration at London College of Fashion and applying for CSM MA Fashion Communication: Fashion Image Course now, which I need to create a visual portfolio related to Fashion Communication and Promotion, so I'm wondering how to start it and tips for creating such portfolio?

    Great work! Very interesting to see how it works at different colleges.

Would be cool if you'd talk about some of these projects in detail. :-)

Even for my course now I still create a sketchbook for each project I do, I think its good to always have one because it will be useful when it comes to your crits (you can reference back to whatever you are saying in your crit, with your sketchbook)

    Hi I’m currently in year 10 at school and I really would like to end up doing something like this in the future and working within the fashion industry not necessarily making garments and stuff like that. Do you have any suggestions for work experience for year ten that would give me an idea of hopefully working in the fashion industry?
    Thanks xx

    • @gracegchoy
      @gracegchoy  Před 5 lety

      Hey! For your year 10 in the UK should be my grade 9, at this age I think I was very set on becoming a designer and I wouldn't suggest being so certain on your path at this point. I was constantly uncertain because in this industry there are so much you can do. I would suggest for you to start researching the different jobs/roles in the fashion industry and narrow down what area you are more curious about since you still have time you can take some short courses over summer break or winter break in different college campuses to try out different things, as this is what I did. Hope this helps! :)

    I found this course the other day and honestly it seems perfect for me. How competitive would you say the foundation course at UAL is and the fashion communication and promotion degree? I’m currently studying A levels would love to do it!! Also what career prospects do u think you’ll get out of it?

    • @gracegchoy
      @gracegchoy  Před 5 lety +1

      Going to be completely honest, it was extremely competitive, especially if you really want to get on the course again for BA. People I heard/know of who graduated from this course ended up doing very different things; for example, creative director, photographer, stylist, any image maker, videographer, PR, etc.

    @giuliasimionescu6789 Před 5 lety +1

    Congratulations, I love your work. Being admitted to all of those three courses must have been fantastic for you. But if I can ask, what were your grades back in high school to enter the course of communication and promotion? Did they influence on your admission possibility? Did they ask specific grades, do they really care about them? What subjects were you studying in hs to get admitted here? Are they more important of the portfolio? What are the minimum grades they ask? Sorry for the questions, but I would really love to be admitted.

    • @gracegchoy
      @gracegchoy  Před 5 lety +1

      Thank you! My grades were average, I had a few As but mostly Bs and Cs. I wasn't good with some academic classes and taking exams was just not my thing. I tried really hard in high school because it got harder when I started taking IB (International Baccalaureate). I took 3 high-level classes and 3 standard-level classes, adding on to the workload I also had to make my portfolios on the side. I think grades matters in admissions since there's a certain requirement you have to make in order to pass, but your portfolio should be the most important. You have to double check on their course website! I hope I answered all your questions x

      YAYYY so good to hear that it was helpful! Sketchbooks should be something that documents all your thought process and research, it is really up to you how you want to organize it! You can have some projects in one sketchbook or not have a sketchbook at all and make a digital research file. Many ways to do it (:
