Art and Design (Photography)

Course summary

Photography is defined here as the practice of producing images using light-sensitive materials such as photographic film, or digital methods of development and production to create static or moving images. During the course you will gain the confidence and skills to explore a diverse range of themes, and to develop a questioning and analytical attitude. There is a strong emphasis on the teaching of a range of technical skills as well as developing your own practice. You are encouraged to explore and experiment through a range of traditional and new photographic media (film based and digital applications). The Digital course is based around a digital SLR camera and Adobe Photoshop. We provide a well-equipped and modern studio and small darkroom enabling you to enjoy an exciting and supportive atmosphere that values hard work and creativity.
