Art and Design (Photography)

Course summary

If you are inquisitive and reflective and are excited by lens-based art work, then you should consider studying photography. If you wish to acquire skills in digital photography; computer aided image manipulation and chemical photography, as well as an understanding of aesthetics and art photography criticism, then this is the course for you. Students will need to be imaginative and demonstrate enthusiasm and patience for all photographic genres. Those who opt for this course would benefit from having studied photography or art at GCSE, but it is not a requirement. A good level of written English is needed for the A level course.
