The course will help you to develop your understanding of and the industrial and commercial practices by which they are designed and manufactured. The principle means of developing this understanding is through the process of ‘product design’.
Ideally, students choosing to embark upon the A level photography course should have attained at least a grade 7 in GCSE Photography or show evidence of adequate skills, enthusiasm and understanding of photography.
Unit 1 will be assessed through a 2.5 hour examination set and marked by Edexcel. This will be a two and a half-hour examination paper based on a variety of topics covered over the two year course such as; Materials, Processes and techniques, Digital technologies, Factors influencing the development of products, Potential hazards and risk assessments, Designing for maintenance and the cleaner environment, Current legislation, Information Handling, modelling and forward planning. Unit 2 - ‘Design and Make’ activity. This unit results in the development of an appropriate product supported by a design folder. The folder, which should include ICT generated images where appropriate, must be submitted on A3 paper only and is likely to be between 30 and 40 pages long.
