WHAT IS PHOTOGRAPHY AT DLD?

A Level Photography is a rigorous and thorough taught course. Students learn the “language” of photography, how to “read” and analyse their images, including the techniques, processes and skills.

This is a structured course, enabling students to creatively respond the work of relevant inspirational artists. Passion, commitment, imagination, visual, written and verbal communication skills are essential prerequisites to succeed in A Level Photography.

Clarity of student’s intentions, conceptual understanding and sophisticated ideas are explored in depth throughout this course using a wide variety of photographic styles, skills and techniques.

Visiting art and photography galleries and museums are an essential stimulating part of this course and students must show in depth cultural awareness and connections in the development of their projects.

Students have access to the photography studio and classroom throughout the week.
