12 Photography

12 Photography

In senior Photography you will use a range of research approaches to develop your understanding of photographic technologies and compositional principles. You will be encouraged to develop your own personal avenue(s) of exploration by selecting a compelling topic and analysing the work of relevant artist models.

In Q2 you will build upon your prior learning to develop a deeper understanding of the tools and ideas that are important in photography. You will demonstrate your learning by creating a folio of your images. The core standards attached to this class are two internal standards - relating to practical knowledge and ideational development, respectively - along with a significant folio of work which is assessed externally, worth 12 credits. There is flexibility to increase or decrease the standards assessed according to your needs and capabilities.

It is preferred that you have taken Art at Q1, however with the commitment of extra time and effort, it is possible to pick up the class without this. This will depend on your personal motivation to pursue Senior Art Design and must be approved by Mic.
