RCA Visual Communication/ Illustration pathways / Career Track Tuesdays Post Grad

I went to the Career Track Tuesdays talk on Post Graduate study and it was interesting! A lot of the information I want and need are on a more personal/ specific to subject level, but it gave a lot of info on application/ and importantly FINANCE, which at once both better and just as bad as expected.

I feel that application is such a heavy process and that I maybe haven't considered things enough to apply this year (though could always give it a go...). I'd benefit talking to people who have/ are doing an MA, to really figure out what it can do for an illustration practice.

One course I AM certainly interested is Vis Com at the RCA, (admittedly I found out about it by seeing that many practitioners I admire had taken it)

Regardless of whether I pursue it (yet or at all) I found these pathways descriptions interesting... 'Situated Illustration' sort of sounds like the ideas I've been discussing recently...
