Description: Billy Blue School of Graphic Arts began in 1987 to train people for careers in the exciting world of communication and multimedia design. We use our extensive industry knowledge to provide an educational environment that mirrors how design and advertising agencies operate.

Students come from Australia and all over the world to benefit from a dynamic creative environment where they are trained to meet industry demands. We prepare students, both with the practical skills - in the fields of communication design, advertising, publishing, packaging, and multimedia design - and the formal qualifications they need to launch successful communication and multimedia design careers worldwide.

You can choose either the Communication Design or Multimedia Design stream, depending on which creative area you wish to qualify and establish your career in.

Billy Blue School of Graphic Arts provides a flexible entry and exit study pathway - you can enter at the level appropriate to your academic background and experience, and exit once you have attained your desired qualification.

- Communication Design stream
The first year of the Communication Design stream focuses on the more traditional areas of visual communication such as design, typography, advertising, illustration, drawing, rendering and studio skills.

The second year includes publishing, digital design, computer rendering, packaging and a semester-long major project. You'll be working on a broad range of industry-based projects at higher conceptual and technical levels.

- Multimedia Design stream
The first year of the Multimedia Design stream focuses on the same traditional areas of visual communication as the Communication Design stream but with a bias to multimedia design.

The second year includes advanced internet design, video game design, introduction to 3D design, digital video production, post production and a semester-long major project. You'll be working on a broad range of industry-based projects at higher conceptual and technical levels.

Highlights: Students can continue their studies with a Bachelor of Design (Communication Design or Multimedia Design) at Billy Blue. The degree is awarded by Swinburne University of Technology.
