Year 1 is aimed at introducing learning, research, and technical skills; students are encouraged to undertake a series of set projects introducing approaches relevant to the development of a photographic practice; these introductions are designed to encourage you to develop your creativity and understanding through photography. Year 2 develops the student’s own individual style and approach; the emphasis is on risk taking and the exploration of and experimentation with ideas, research methods, and imaginative approaches to practice. Year 3 focuses on realising the student’s creative potential by undertaking a major self-directed project; this practical body of work is supported by the writing of a contextual essay and research projects which will help to critically inform the practical work.
