Over the last three decades, fashion has broadened its influence across the creative industries and many art forms. In parallel, new technologies have transformed how the fashion sector communicates with consumers. With the industry in this state of transition, it's more important than ever to analyse the impact of new media and to explore the needs of new consumers. MA Fashion Communication at Central Saint Martins embodies these paradigm changes.Explore the discipline through new, cutting-edge digital platforms and media as well as more traditional modes of communication. The course helps you to develop the professional skills to join the next generation of fashion theorists, analysts, writers, journalists, image-makers and visual communicators. We invite you to apply a creative approach to the platforms through which you produce your work and help you to anticipate and respond to fluid, fluctuating global communication channels. MA Fashion Communication offers three pathways. Fashion Journalism focuses on writing, editing and digital media, while Fashion Histories and Theories offers an academic approach to the study of fashion. Fashion Image is for innovative photographers, film-makers, digital practitioners, and art directors. This pathway examines traditional and new fashion platforms, such as print media and publishing, digital platforms and the ever-changing landscape of mobile technology. You will explore fundamental issues such as authorship and how the industry uses the variety of communication channels available to engage audiences. You will develop a full understanding of social justice, the ideas and practices that explore equity and fairness in society and in the fashion industry specifically. Engaging with the concept of social Justice involves challenging deeply embedded structural inequalities arising notably from divisions of race, class, gender, sexuality and ability and actively working to reduce them.While much of your time and teaching is concentrated on your pathway study, there are opportunities to work with your colleagues from other pathways and courses. This structure reflects the collaborative approach of the fashion industry.
