| Description for Course: |
This Term 2 photography course follows New Media in Term 1. It introduces students to the study and practice of photography as an art form, covering photographic concepts and processes, photographic history, as well as studio/seminars on contemporary issues. Projects will investigate the creative use of long exposures, light as a modifier, and the procedures and aesthetics of ink jet printing. Students will be guided in the creation of a thematic portfolio. This grounding in photographic practices prepares the student for New Media and Video (Term 3). |
