The right photograph can be thought provoking, heart-warming, challenging, eye-opening, sometimes even world changing. This course is for you if you want to understand the difference between a good photo and a great photo. It will teach you not only how to use a camera in different conditions, but also how to think creatively, experiment and develop stunning images. You’ll be a person with imagination, who enjoys trying out new techniques and styles. This course has a practical core, using hands-on workshops, weekly photoshoots and interesting assignments to give you an in depth understanding of creating outstanding photography. We also investigate some of the thinking behind a great photograph: how to be imaginative and develop your own style, as well as looking at the work of world class, inspirational photographic artists. We boast a dedicated A Level photography studio with professional standard lighting, large darkroom and IT suite with the most up-to-date software packages to enhance and develop your photographs. Our students come away from the course with both the practical skills for a future in photography and the creative thinking skills that can set them apart in many fields. Topics Include: - Using your camera controls - Better composition - Studio lighting - Digital editing using Photoshop - Traditional black and white processes - How to ‘read’ a photograph - Alternative photographic processes - Creativity and the camera - How to develop your ideas into something extraordinary.
