If you have enjoyed studying an art subject at GCSE or BTEC, but would like to explore another medium through which to express your ideas, the photography course can offer you this opportunity. Photography is a way of exploring, recording and analysing the visual world. As an endorsement of art and design the course encourages creativity, experimentation and the realisation of ideas and investigations. Photography is a practical course that requires students to demonstrate independence and initiative. You will gain experience of both traditional and contemporary practise within photography. You will explore a range of photographers whose work will inspire you to experiment with a range of techniques and concepts. You will learn to develop your ideas with independence and to construct a portfolio of work that demonstrates your knowledge and understanding. You will learn technical skills through a variety of practical workshops. Core skills in darkroom processes, digital imaging and studio lighting will enable you to develop your creative practice. An emphasis on critical and contextual studies forms an important part of the course, as do group discussions, individual tutorials and visits to art galleries and museums. You can go on to study an art foundation course or straight onto a degree in higher education within a range of photographic disciplines.
