The annual University of Westminster Degree Shows highlight a range of projects completed by our creative students, reflecting the varied talent across the Westminster School of Arts and the School of Media and Communication.<\/p>

We sat down with Beth Theobald, a third-year Photography BA student to find out more about her final year project.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What inspired you to create your final project?<\/b><\/p>

The current climate crisis and the need for long-term change are the key drivers behind my project. After investigating the environmental impact of analogue photography for my dissertation, I decided to explore the possibilities of a more feasible way to create a photographic project.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What are you most excited about for the degree show?<\/b><\/p>

I can\u2019t wait to see everyone’s work on the University walls and celebrate together in-person (after various lockdowns)! We\u2019ve all worked extremely hard and the Degree Shows allow us to pause for a moment and celebrate our achievements.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What are your plans after graduation?<\/b><\/p>

I’ve really enjoyed studying my degree but I\u2019m also looking forward to having a short break. I will then start applying for photography or studio assistant positions while working as a freelancer.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What are some of your career aspirations?<\/b><\/p>

My long term career goals are still uncertain. The University of Westminster has opened my eyes to so many possibilities and different career paths that I can take. I\u2019d like to work in my field but I\u2019m also interested in studying for a Masters degree.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
