Content
There are eight lessons in this course, as follows:

1. Image Formation
Interaction of light with matter (Reflection, Absorption, Transmission, Deviation, Dispersion), Lenses (6 main types -Double Convex,. Plano Convex etc), Understanding movement of light, Image formation in a camera.

2. Lighting
Characteristics of light (Spectrum characteristics, Overall Output, Consistency, Efficiency, Illumination, Quantity, Economy etc); Natural Light, Artificial Light (direction, intensity and colour); Generating Light (From Burning, Heating, Spark or Arc of Electricity, Electrical Discharge); Lighting Equipment (Tungsten Filament Lamps Tungsten Halogen Lamps, Fluorescent Lamps, Flashbulbs.

3. Sensitometry A (ie. Film Sensitivity)
How a Negative is Created; Film Contrast Characteristics (medium, low or high),Resolving & Grain, Speed, Light Meters

4. Sensitometry B
Luminance range, Scatter affect, Under & over exposure, Callier coefficient,, Difuse & parallel illumination

5. Understanding Colour
White light, Primary colours, Subtractive colour, Short & long wavelengths, Colour differences in negative and positive film.

6. Chemistry of Colour Photography
Colour chemistry, Colour image development, Alternative methods of image formation and processing.

7. Optical Filters and other activities
Applications for different filters, for special affects, comparing with and without filters.

8. Lenses
Wide angle Lenses, The Standard Lens, Telephoto Lens, Zoom and Macro Lenses; Applications for different lenses

Aims

• Describe in technical terms, how an image forms when a photograph is taken.

• Explain the nature of light and how this relates to the finished photographic product.

• Describe how sensitivity of a photo sensitive surface and its development affect the photographic image.

• Explain sensitivity relates to development affect the photographic image.

• Explain the composition and manipulation of white and coloured light to create different photographic images.

• Discuss the chemical process that occurs in producing a colour film photograph.

• Explain how the photographic image may be manipulated by using optical filters or other camera attachments, other than lenses.

• Explain how the photographic image may be manipulated by using lenses.
