Art and Design (Photography)

Course summary

In their first year of studying photography, students will gain an understanding of the key principles, elements and techniques that will help them to develop meaningful responses to their themes. Students start by exploring the theme ‘Me, Myself and I’ while exploring and developing their skills and techniques using a broad range of materials. Later in the year students then move on to the theme ‘Home’ which enabled students to explore a range of responses. Students will carry out individual artist research, carry out several photoshoots in response and learn how to edit their photographs in an interesting and explorative style.
