• Applying learnt camera skills in lesson to outside of school shoots. 
• Analysing photographers
•  Research more photographers who have used light or motion (specifically your chosen area) as inspiration for their own work.
• Those who are aiming for the highest grades need to work independently to produce more than the minimum amount of work which is that set by the class teacher. 
• They should complete more pieces of recording; more development pieces; more pieces of refinement and use more photographer links as their work develops.

Light and Dark

• Students reflect on previous 2 projects of work to decide how they would like to combine the two projects into one to form the basis for this coursework project
• Students work independently to direct their own project, creating a more abstract piece of work.

• Look at OCR criteria for Set Task and reflect upon language used for each band.

• Studio set up 
• Camera skills – shutter speed, aperture and ISO 
• Camera techniques – main ones: leading lines, rule of thirds and depth of field. 
• Model directing 
• Creating chosen emotion and atmosphere. 
• How lighting effects an image 

​

• Brainstorm ideas with use of image examples
• Recording using relevant camera techniques
• Research relevant artists to inspire and influence the development of ideas
• Refinement of ideas

• Explore long shutter speed in more detail focused on portraiture – double exposure.
