Developments in digital media are moving at a rapid pace and young producers are experimenting with new technologies to produce cutting edge work. Without a platform to showcase their achievements, their talent will go unrecognised. Without an input from industry professionals, their skills will lack commercial value.

This is where Submerge comes in.

Through an event that promotes the work of digital media students, we bridge the gap between the worlds of academia, research and industry. And, through a support network, we help students, graduates and freelancers develop their commercial acumen and find work.

Submerge creates opportunities:

• for digital media students to showcase their work
• for academic institutes to prepare students for the commercial world
• for industry to communicate its needs to emerging creators
• for UK companies to find and channel creative talent

In this dynamic arena, the opportunity to experiment is vital. It’s the o­nly way we can ensure progress and build o­n the UK’s reputation for innovation. Submerge encourages digital media students to explore the potential of new technologies and use their creative talent to excite and inspire.
