"We look for open mindedness and enthusiasm with a willingness to explore all the opportunities of illustration, animation and how the visual communicates. Drawing as a practice and as a passion, not just for its own sake but as a means of communicating and expression. We look for applicants who are self-motivated, who can work individually but also within a group. Also visual evidence of a desire to build imaginative creativity into a career and can show this ambition in a portfolio format."
