We will focus on the development of problem solving, reflective practice, critical thinking, technical and practical skills related to photographic practice.On this course we support the development of personal interests through experimentation with a wide range of skills, techniques, materials and equipment. We explore global communities and opportunities in photography and related creative industries, and use that experience to develop critical thinkers that are malleable, responsive and reactive to shape the future of photography.
