Over the past 3 months Camberwell College of Arts BA Graphic Design and Illustration students have been working together to produce Channel – a series of pre-recorded and live television programmes dealing with the medium of television.

Channel will air on 10 May, broadcast live from The Sassoon Gallery. Broadcasting will begin at 9am and finish at 9am the following day.

The 24 hours will consist of a series of screenings of YouTube tutorials. Throughout the day students and public will have the opportunity to master skills such as Double Dutching, Waltzing, Club Dancing, and Meditation.

This live TV marathon will also feature a number of pre-recorded documentaries, short films, music videos, game shows and news programmes made by the students. The Channel will be available to view on www.secondchannel.co.uk

Camberwell College of Arts BA Graphic Design alumnus Daniel Swan’s animation “Planet Drift V” debuted last night on Channel 4 as part of their Random Acts series.

Soundtracked by music composed by fellow Camberwell BA Graphic Design alumnus Jack Latham (aka Jam City) the animation tells the story of “a dying parallel world’s fate, which is decided through the wielding of one appointed saviour corporation’s unrivaled wealth, technology and force.”

You can see the full animation on the Channel 4 Random Acts website.

An exhibition of works created by eighteen final year Camberwell College of Arts Drawing students. With their graduation quickly approaching, these eighteen students are embracing the opportunity to test out new ideas and refine previous ones before their degree show in June.

Considering drawing as an extension of thinking, the course has borne a multi-disciplinary group of artists, working across various mediums, including photography, performance, video and sculpture. Looking at this moment in time, not as the end of a chapter, but the point of beginning, of new interest, new work and new careers.
