This module asks you to creatively engage with the technical and theoretical aspects of the photographic studio, focusing on developing your understanding and control of studio flash in making creative imagery. The module will address how diverse the photographic studio process has been and continues to be in the formation of images made within this environment, through focusing on key photographers. You will advance your photographic studio lighting skill and engage with different camera formats and industry software. You will respond to a variety of technically and creatively diverse tasks and assignments to produce a set of photographic images.

 We embed practical and current industry trends that allow students to explore a dedicated pathway relevant to their career aspirations with a strong focus around employability and enterprise.

The module will help students to build on research to inform their wider practice and will also challenge their ability to set goals and to solve problems – developing critical awareness of their own work.

Module components are designed to be run in conjunction with other modules during semester 1 and utilise complimentary practical components that build on other modules taught alongside this one.
