During the course students will be given the chance to work on photographic-based projects developed from a range of starting points. To assist in the successful culmination of these projects students will be taught all the necessary skills to take photographs that are suitable for the standards that are required at A level. Depth of Field, rule of thirds, shutter speeds, macro and ISO levels are just some of the technical aspects students will be taught how to use so that they can become successful photographers. They will then be shown how to use image manipulation programs to make the most of their photographs and how to take their images to a new level. Students will be introduced to a variety of experiences exploring a range of photographic media, techniques and processes. They will be made aware of both traditional and new technologies. Students will explore relevant images, artefacts and resources relating to Photography and a wider range of art and design, from the past and from recent times. This will be integral to the investigating and making process. Their responses to these examples will be shown through practical and critical activities which demonstrate the students’ understanding of different styles, genres and traditions.
