Photography is an art form, it is a creative outlet, a way of seeing and interpreting the world around you. Photography is probably one of the only forms of communication that is truly universal, crossing social and cultural boundaries and interweaving itself seamlessly with so many aspects of our lives. The Art Department is a flourishing hub for the development of the visual arts which provides students with opportunities to learn to produce work at a professional standard, at the same time encouraging the exploration of photography as an artistic medium. Our teachers are committed, inspirational, demanding, and fun, and students are given individual attention and appropriate levels of support and guidance to enable them to produce high-quality outcomes. Our program of study is a blend of practical projects and relevant theory so that students can explore photography as a key. Course content: Coursework Portfolio: For this unit you are expected to produce a wide range of digital images working from the theme of structures and that every picture tells a story. In classroom-based work you will be provided with opportunities to explore the basic principles of photography, learn how to use a digital camera, and develop your skill of digital techniques/manipulation. This approach emphasizes the manipulation and presentation of imagery within a computer.
