Photography will develop your ability to see the world in a different light and from a different angle; identify the unusual in the mundane; develop your technical and creative skills through personal investigation; and delve into the work and ethos of other photographers, artists, and designers to enhance your creative growth. This is an exciting and creative course that uses Adobe Photoshop software to its maximum capability. You will learn different ways to set up your camera to develop your photographic skills and achieve the specific effects you want. You will learn to develop your ideas by studying the work of others and making a series of critical and visual responses. Learning to create your own digital book will enable you to develop presentation skills and you will learn to organize your work to evidence and convey your creative journey. You will learn to use wet processing methods and how to make enlargements on the enlargers. There will be an introduction to different lighting techniques and you will quickly master the basics and be able to book the lights for use in your own time. You should expect your editing skills to develop throughout the course. We will encourage the use of a wide range of specialist tools, techniques, and processes and help you realize how to apply these to your creative vision.
