I wanted to do language, but my school doesn't do it so i am doing lit.
I'll post a pic soon.
thanks for your help, before I just had a vague idea of what I wanted to do to get into gaming.

There are 2 types of Art A Level, I think one is double award and one is normal. I did the normal one just because I wanted to do other things, and I recommend doing normal because so many hours of art a week means you tend to lack concentration and inspiration.
And yes you can usually do A Level art without GCSE art, my friend did it, but it depends on the school. If you make it clear you are enthusiastic and passionate about it I'm sure they'll give you a chance.
You are welcome, I am doing this myself so I know a lot of stuff. You won't get a job in Japan but there are many UK companies, Team 17 [Worms, Lemmings], Rockstar Games [Grand Theft Auto, Manhunt], Lionhead Studios [Fable, Black & White.] So try your luck here
If you want to know anything else/see examples of my work, feel free to ask~
