Ikr! I'm trying to get tons of work done ready for it!
Yeah I hope so too haha. Does it? I have only seen a couple of photos.
Thank you! You'll have to tell us all how the interview went and what they asked! What course did you apply for?


Hey! so I took a sketchbook of studio work (fine art, portraiture and fashion), my final major project book (based around flowers and lots of experimentation and 2 essays) and a book of professionally printed photos (about 25 images) which had a range of work.

There was about 6 other people applying for Fashion Photography on the 9am slot today. Had a chat with them then had a 20-30min interview and look at my work with the 2 tutors.

They were absolutely lovely! They looked through my 3 books and commented on some of my images (mentioned that I had quite a range of stuff in there and suggesting LCC may be something to consider too. I explained as I would be an older student this is something I've considered for a while and have some work experience with (so hope that helps! lol).

They liked my work and thought my my technical skills were great. They asked if I had any written pieces to show, asked what inspires me if I had an editorial to shoot, and what I've been doing for the past few years. They said it should take about 2 weeks to receive a response!

So now the wait continues! However I have another Interview tomorrow for Photography at The Cass. I just want a break now lol, but will see how that goes.

Let me know how it goes with you!

Ahh it sounds like it went well for you! Let's hope they thought so too I'm sure you will get the offer. Good luck, now it's the waiting game.

From reading your message it's made me feel a little better! I hope that when I have my interview the tutors are nice ☺.

From you saying you're an older student, I'm not tbh however I could of gone uni last year but I changed from another course so I feel like it was better for me as I could gain more experience. I think I will explain how I knew that fashion was for me about a year ago as that's when I first discovered makeup for fashion so I've had my heart set on it for a little longer than some people possibly?

I have 5 books but only one is a full book which is my portfolio so I think it's fine haha 🙈

Ah good luck for today! My interview is at 1:30pm today for me.

Ahh I'm sure you did good!! Good luck today! No I have no clue, I assume beginning of March too as all Unis have to have made a decision by then. Also, how long did your interview at LCF last??

No, I don't think I am unfortunately. Trying to not to think about it too much because I wanted it so bad. Just don't think my work was good enough for them

I really don't know, one lady seemed interested and the other was kind of indirectly implying I do a foundation year, but then idk why they'd call me back for an interview if they wanted a foundation year, I dunno I'm confused!! I applied for womenswear!

Hi hun, idk if this is any help but i was in the same position as you, so i emailed and was told i'd actually been offered an interview.. but there was something wrong with the system on my Track so i'd never received the invite. anyway, the interview would have been this week so i missed it. i phoned up and admissions told me that next week they are sending out more interviews to take place in March. I'd advise you to phone up next week and ask what the situation is xxx
