A guide to crits - what they are, why they're useful and how to survive them.

Want to know what happens in an art school crit? Want to hear why they're helpful and not just simply scary?
REcreative sat down with some current students and recent graduates to get their insight into the crit experience -- what it involves, why they're useful and their top tips for surviving them.
Filmed on location in the sculpture studio at Camberwell College of Art, REcreative also spoke to course leader Matt Franks about the value of crits and why sometimes it worse when people say nothing at all...
