Short Graphic Design Courses (London or Brighton)

[ecr1877]

Hello, this is my first message in this forum. I hope this will help me to find the information I need.

I´m liivng in spain and would like to take a Graphic Design course soon in London or Brighton. I´m searching for short courses (4-6 months) to introduce me into design area, I mean, I don´t want a course about "how to use "x" application...." but about how to use colors, typography, space, Corporate Image...

Does anybody know any institute, centre or university where I could take this kind of courses? Only the name would be ok, I´ll do the rest.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Ernesto.

Hmm, this might be a bit tricky. In my experience, the majority of graphics courses are either a couple of days long, as an introduction for people who need to produce newsletters etc for their company, or are full blown qualifications, which are normally a minimum of 1 academic year. Most people here would do an HNC (1 year), HND (2 years) or a degree (3 or 4 years) to get the sort of training you are after.

Try contacting any of the art institutes in london, they may be able to tell you if they run any shorter courses, or put you in touch with somewhere that might.

Sorry it's not much help - good luck!
