A Truly Immersive Campus Experience
We provide an environment to nurture the best creative talent in Wales, offering rewarding experiences and work opportunities for talented individuals wishing to work within the creative industries. Creative energy and flair is generated by a blurring of traditional discipline boundaries and barriers and individual passion is both encouraged and developed by an industry-ready approach to learning and study. Whether you are an actor, an artist or designer, you will find yourself working alongside, and with, creative writers, filmmakers, new media producers, puppet-makers and directors.
A Different Kind of Classroom
We subscribe to the idea that everywhere is a classroom within our creative community. The learning opportunities in workshops, lecture theatres, rehearsal studios and locations are where ideas are formed, discussed, and acted upon – these are spaces for reflection, discussion, enquiry and opportunity.

The Scenic Workshop
Our workshop is one of the most alternative classrooms we have. Not only does it host taught sessions about prop making, set building, puppet construction and scenic art but it also is the beating heart of the Set Design & Production course. Students use the space to develop their craft over the three years studying with us and can use the specialist equipment and materials as often as they want. It is a space graduates fondly reminisce about as a place where many adventures began.
Venturing Out
Expeditions and field excursions are central to our Adventure Filmmaking degree. They allow students to experience filming in a variety of locations and conditions, utilising the landscapes of West Wales and the wide range of outdoor pursuits that take place in the region.
Collaboration
The creative industries are built on collaborative relationships. This is the future. Your future, our future. We collaborate with creative colleagues every day, on both professional and creative levels. Collaboration gives voice to individual ideas, respects broad design opinions and embraces differences to build a confident, creative community.
