A browse through TikTok during Singapore's circuit breaker period in 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, led LASALLE BA(Hons) Film student Nuryn Adryana Abdul Halim to discover the subject of her next documentary short film: Ms Apphia Ling, the young entrepreneur behind local accessories brand Whoaa!.

BA(Hons) Film alumna Vivienne Chong nearly went overseas to further her studies after graduating from Nanyang Technological University with a major in mass media management. A chance encounter with a film director at an internship changed her life.

"The director asked me at the time, ‘why not try to enrol in LASALLE College of the Arts?’ Following his advice, I searched for some information and submitted the application form."

One of Wan Razaly's fondest memories of his audio production journey is taking a photo with his favourite singer, Birdy, at a live concert where he was behind the sound controls.

During his time as a LASALLE Diploma in Audio Production student, Wan's work experience at a local sound engineering company that provided audio services to large-scale concerts gave him the chance to meet with stars such as Selena Gomez, Panic! At The Disco, Weezer and Charlie Puth.

We can make the world more beautiful through theatre, says Indumathi Tamilselvan, one of the graduates from LASALLE College of the Arts' Class of 2021. Along with her, more than 800 graduates received their degrees and diplomas this year.

The arts are one of the sectors that was affected by COVID-19. However, Indumathi, who wanted to pursue a career in the arts, was not discouraged. She realised that arts and technology can work together.

On 9 October, LASALLE College of the Arts is set to kick off its 35th Convocation ceremony, where 821 graduands from the class of 2021 will be presented with their diplomas and degrees.

When she started teaching at the weekly aLIVE religious classes in Darussalam Mosque more than five years ago, Ms Amirah Munawwarah Idilfitri encountered an autistic student who had trouble concentrating in the classroom, as well as hyperactive students who disrupted the flow of the class. These experiences prompted Amirah to pursue an undergraduate degree in psychology, after which she enrolled in LASALLE's MA Art Therapy programme.
