Course overview
Explore creative photography techniques on this one-day course for 14-17 year olds. Based in our professional-standard photography facilities, you’ll develop your technical skills and broaden your experience.
We’ll explore the art of stop-motion animation, learning how to conceptualise an idea and capture a sequence frame by frame. We’ll experiment with light painting in our darkroom; and work with exposure settings and lighting in one of our photographic studios. We’ll also take a look at an alternative photography method, using light-sensitive paper to produce unique, camera-free prints.
Guided by our expert photography staff in a supportive environment, this course is a fantastic opportunity to expand your technical skills, push creative boundaries and explore the artistic possibilities of photography.
