The BTEC Level 3 Certificate in Photography is designed to give learners the specialist knowledge, skills and understanding that they need to progress towards professional practice or further academic study of Photography. You will gain an in depth experience of the techniques, disciplines and issues within the contemporary Photography field and will use this to build a portfolio for application to higher level courses or your own professional practice.The course will be structured around a series of projects. Initially these will be focused on skills and techniques essential to Photography and are aimed at developing your confidence and experience of less familiar approaches. These elements include camera controls, studio lighting, digital imaging and editing, macro work. Following this, projects will become more thematic - such as: reportage and location portraiture and are aimed at ideas development. You will be able to explore your own interests and preferred approaches within a structured context. The final project will give you the opportunity to work to your own brief and present work in an exhibition. The journal will be a very important part of this course and you will learn to use it as a tool to record and develop the journey through your work. You will be required do some written work.
