What will happen on the Interview Day?

When you arrive:
· You will be directed to the interview space and asked to lay out your portfolio.

· You will be interviewed by two lecturers of the LASALLE as part of the group interview.

· There will be FIVE other candidates in your group.

· While the lecturers are assessing your portfolio, you will be asked to discuss with the other candidates on the topic: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE CREATIVE? As a group you should prepare some ideas for discussion later on in the interview.

· Once the lecturers have assessed the portfolios, all candidates will be asked to select their best piece of artwork from their own portfolio and talk about it for 2 minutes. You should say why you think it is your best piece and also talk about how you developed it.

· Once all the candidates have presented their artwork, the whole group will then discuss the topic: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE CREATIVE?
