Studying Level 3 Creative Media Practice
I chose this course because I’ve always been a creative person and I wanted to learn more about the media industry. I enjoy this course as there is never a dull moment! You can be as creative as you like and no one holds you back. I am hoping to become a graphic designer either through going to university or starting an apprenticeship.
