Course Overview

Awarded Bachelor of Arts (Visual Communication) majoring in Photography by Raffles College of Design and Commerce, Sydney, Australia

Introduction

Photography works within the dimensions of time and place. Whether we are looking at images of an horrific war scene, an alluring sunset, or a romantic perfume shot, photography has the undeniable power of communicating the meaning of a particular moment. Great photography is made up of essential elements such as statement, mood, feeling and visual happening and is one of the most powerful forms of visual communication.

Although photography has seen huge changes with the advent of digital photography and is continually evolving with innovations in style and technique; it is not purely about technology. Photography is used to advertise, to persuade, and to inform. It challenges the viewer and demands an emotional response.

To become a professional photographer, you’ll need to know more than how to take a photo. The studio photographer starts off with an empty canvas and fills it with light, props, people, etc. The location photographer will use the viewfinder as the frame to bring graphic order to something that already exists. You’ll learn current non-destructive image editing and printmaking. You’ll be encouraged to think, work and see as a professional with projects which not only teach technical skills but, more importantly, focus on creative photography.

This course allows you to develop the creative vision and individual style that differentiates great photography from average photography. You’ll be given a solid foundation in both the creative chemistry of film photography and in the new possibilities offered by digital technology. You’ll get a thorough grounding in theory and practice as well as valuable exposure to the industry through professional photographers and printmakers who make up the lecturing team.

Most importantly, you’ll end up with a portfolio of work which reflects your individuality and showcases your talent to prospective clients or employers.
