Task
Photographers are often influenced by topics, which can have a wide range of responses to the same theme. Using your newly acquired knowledge of lighting techniques and how to explore a range of settings and locations respond to the topic ISOLATION.
You must select your own references for this topic, which should reflect the way that you wish to represent the theme. We will be asking you to write a proposal, which should outline your response to the theme, who you will be influenced by and what kind of outcome you envisage.
Your initial photographs should contain between 100 – 150 photographs. (AO3)
Select 25 – 30 images for each of the themes Isolation, which will represent a series of successful photographs showing clear evidence of your initial collection. (AO3)
From your initial collection develop a series of photographs, which show evidence of selection, cropping, enhancing and editing. (AO2)
Produce a final piece/s, which shows clear evidence of your research and design development. The format for your final piece/s is your decision. This will depend on your design development. You can present a series of related pieces, which form a whole or you can present singles images. (AO4)
Your work will be marked in accordance with the assessment objectives for the AQA photography course.
AO1 Develop their ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding.
AO2 Experiment with and select appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes, reviewing and refining their ideas as their work develops.
AO3 Record in visual and/or other forms ideas, observations and insights relevant to their intentions, demonstrating an ability to reflect on their work and progress.
AO4 Present a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating critical understanding, realising intentions and, where appropriate, making connections between visual, written,
oral or other elements.
Use your time effectively. Discuss your work and progress regularly. Working outside lesson time is essential for success. An appropriate location/subject matter is pivotal – be creative!
Good luck.
