Course Specification: AS Level – AQA ARTF A2 Level - AQA ARTF Entry Requirements: No previous experience is necessary; however, there is a strong emphasis on creative exploration of the medium and associated equipment. Students who have not completed a GCSE Art and Design related course may be asked to show a portfolio of recent work to show their commitment to the course. Candidates will be required to purchase or have access to a digital SLR camera, flash and tripod. Printer paper will also be needed, as will writable CDs. A USB memory stick may be useful. For presentation and storage purposes a portfolio case is also required. What is the course about? The course gives each student the opportunity to explore photographic techniques as well as the traditional visual qualities of the medium such as composition, subject matter and colour. Learning how photographers control movement and depth of field, students start with the basic camera controls to quickly build a portfolio of work ready for the exhibition at the end of the course. Photoshop skills now form a fundamental element of the course based around the school’s Apple Mac suite and graphics tablets, as does the ability to create film and animation using iMovie software.
