This is a studio based course with an emphasis on placing the student's practice in the context of art history and studio theory. The course extends the conceptual and analogue technical skills acquired in Photomedia 1A. Students are introduced to medium format camera operation and advanced B/W and colour darkroom processes. Students are required to have a basic knowledge of B/W and colour photography, 35 mm camera operation, film exposure, processing and print production. Students are directed towards an analysis and critical awareness of current visual arts practice, central to the production and advancement of their own work. Students are encouraged to explore, experiment and develop ideas through set projects.
