   Name: Hannah Coates on Jan 21, 2013

   Comments: We are in dire need of a specialised studio space. The limitations Ravensbourne currently places on its photography students are impacting grades and project choices, alongside the obvious lack of space for lessons and tutorials. With nearing 100 students as a course, it is no longer acceptable that we are forced from inappropriate room to room. If this course wants to continue, and even attempt to compare to fare more facilitated universities, a specialised studio space, with prop storage, and lockable facilities, must be allocated.

   Comments: The fact that Ravensbourne doesnt provide adequate space provisions is ridiculous, and completely limits the potential of its photographic students; they're shooting themselves in the foot at the end of the day.

    Comments: The lack of specialist studio space for the Digital Photography students is really hindering our possibilities and our level of work.Without a studio I and my fellow third year digital photography students will not be able to carry out the high standard of work that we could achieve.

    Comments: I'm on a photography course at another uni, and I don't know how we'd all cope without a studio! Sort it out Ravensbourne, these students are lacking in vital equipment to express their creativity and ideas to their full potential.

    Comments: Supporting the cause because if you can't offer the right facilities for a degree, why are you offering it? It's import to have the proper work space for the studying of a future career.

    Comments: Having studied photography at college, it is vital that students have the correct and proper facilities to complete the course, a photography course without a studio is like a music course with no instruments!

    Comments: How can you offer a degree in photography without offering the basic support structure/facility of a photographic studio? (I previously worked as a University student counsellor at Goldsmiths College for a number of years).

    Comments: Quite inexcusable sounds like the grey suits or who ever they are upstairs need to get their act together. If they take on the responsibility of preparing students for a profession as competitive and demanding as photography for gods sake give them decent resources.

    Comments: A dedicated photographic studio is critical for training. It's invaluable. Without it, students will not be properly equipped for future work placements.

    Name: Meara Kallista Morse on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: Digital Photography Level 2 student -- we are eating up more than two hours of lesson time each day to get kit from CLR, carry it to correct room, assemble and disassemble properly - this means shoots are rushed, work can't be explored properly, and still damage is caused because of the frequent use. Kitting out one (or even two!!) of the rooms on floor 2 would be fantastic and just what this course needs to increase the quality of work even further - this innovative and forward thinking university needs to give us the proper equipment so that we can live up to the reputation they want to build. With the new intake this past year of around 60 students and another 60 in September it really will be impossible to continue in the state we are now.

    Name: Brett Shepherd on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: Every discipline at any institution needs the basics in order to produce good work and for photography course a studio is a basic. As a Ravensbourne alumni I find this a pretty poor showing from a college with such a good, strong and long reputation.

    Name: George Gottlieb on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: Perhaps we could join with another course to make this more feasible, I know other courses would benefit from a dedicated photography studio that they could book out as long as Photography students obviously got preference on certain days of the week.

    Name: Sean Jackson on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: I am a second year student, and agree fully with the above, it should be a given that a course with nearly a hundred students should have at least one permanent studio, where all the equipment can be stored and not dragged around the building!

    Name: Katie Brown on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: I would love to have a set studio room that I know is only used by photography students with most of the equipment in there, ready to be set up. I would also use a studio more (on non-uni days) if I knew that it would be available.

    Comments: Not having this sort of facility is pretty poor for a university that prides itself on offering real-world, practical experience, and not having the continuity of a dedicated space for a course, combined with the huge time wastes and confusion that the members of this course suffer, must be seriously detrimental to the quality of their education, and damage their personal, creative and professional development.

    Name: Andy Morgan on Jan 23, 2013

    Comments: As almost all signees have pointed out, a photography studio is the most basic requirement of a photography, beyond the camera itself! With a designated photography studio DGP students could truly apply themselves to their work, engage in great collaboration with other courses and leave Ravensbourne with a really kickass body of work.
