STUDENT STORY
Katie Bryant
HNC : Acting and Performance HND : Acting and Performance
In first year ( HNC ) you learn about the fundamentals of acting , so you learn voice , movement , acting and production . In second year ( HND ), you learn how to apply these skills to a performance . First year is more theory-based and second year is more practical . You get to do more performances and try out the skills you learnt in first year .
What I enjoy most about the course is working with my classmates . Performing back to your peers helps to build up your confidence , working up to performing in front of parents and other people from the college , especially for a big production .
“ I feel like the step up from high school was definitely something I needed .”
