Escape Studios at the Kent and Medway UCAS Convention on 20th June

University of Greenwich, Medway Campus, Chatham, Kent

Escape Studios will be at the next big UCAS event - the Kent and Medway UCAS convention on 20th and 21st June.

The event takes place at Chatham in Kent, in the University of Greenwich's Medway building - formerly the officer's quarters of the Royal Naval Barracks, a historic structure dating back to the golden age of the Royal Navy.

Come and see us at the Pearson College London Stand. We'll be showing off some of the latest animation tools and explaining how we can help our students become professional animators and visual effects artists.

What makes Escape Studios different?

UCAS - gateway to higher education

Escape Studios is very different from other university courses in 3D animation. We won't make you write long essays on animation - we recognise that practical, real-world skills are what students need to get hired in today's tech-driven industry.

Got questions about our BA/MArt in 3D Animation? Want to know what we do, and how we can help kick-start your animation career? Come and meet us at the Pearson College/Escape Studios stand!

What is this UCAS event all about?
University fairs like this one at the University of Greenwich at Medway are organised by UCAS, in order to offer visitors and students the chance to talk about study at university and get a feeling for what course is right for them.

So, if you're interested in studying 3D animation, this event is a great chance to come along, see what we do, and find out more about our courses. You'll find us at the Pearson College London stand - our parent organisation.

What are we showing?
We'll be showing off some cool animation tools and techniques, explaining what we do - and how our students can learn the crucial skills to break into the industry.

Can you bring your portfolio/demo reel for review?
Absolutely. I am always delighted to look at demo reels and portfolios, and offer advice on what sort of work we are looking for.  To see more about our Portfolio Guidelines, see this post.

What have our students achieved?
