In 2005 Metro Imaging established a platform to support photography graduates making the transition out of education. The programme has gone on to be highly regarded in the industry as a vital stepping-stone into the creative industries. Past winners from academic and non-academic applications include Noemie Goudal; Indre Serpytyte; Andrew Lacon; Tom Hatton; Felicity Hammond; Theodore Plytas and Silje Lovise Gjertsen.
The process is not by application, instead working in collaboration and consultation with University staff and alumni, the judges identify an individual that is deserving of the support; not necessarily the best student but one who has potential to grow and mature into a successful career artist.
The twelve-month programme is designed around the needs of the individual and includes creative and conceptual advice; professional and business development; marketing identity and PR; technical experience and networking introductions and opportunities.
