Guildhall has provided so many opportunities that I didn't expect when I applied. The mentor programme has also been hugely valuable to me.

I chose to come to Guildhall because I wanted to become a set designer. Guildhall helped me understand who I want to be and how to get there.

It's the scale of productions that really makes Guildhall stand out. It gets to the point where you think, wow, this is massive. In other places, you just wouldn't have that opportunity to learn on the job.

I had the opportunity to work with the BA Video Design for Live Performance course on an installation project in the chambers below Tower Bridge. It was a completely unique experience.
