MPI210 Photomedia Studio 1 (8)
AbstractThis subject builds on skills attained in prerequisite subjects by encouraging students to explore a variety of digital solutions to more complex photomedia problems. The creation and manipulation of digital images is expanded in greater depth to equip students with a sound foundation for producing more sophisticated photomedia projects. This is supported by significant investigation into technical and theoretical issues in areas such as colour, photo-imaging formats, lighting and exposure. |
