1. AS Photography Summer Project
Before you begin your AS Photography course you must ensure that you complete
the tasks below to a high standard.
All the work should be completed and mounted in your sketchbook for your first AS
Photography class, please bring this to enrolment too.
It is also recommended that you buy a 4GB SD card as you will use college
cameras throughout lessons and for homework in the year and you will need your
own SD card to do this. Also your own glue stick will be necessary.
Task Done?
Buy yourself a sketchbook either from the Art shop here at college
or WH Smith.
Self Portrait Project
 Take 6-10 final photographs of things that mean something to
you, as well as a self-portrait.
 These should be printed and mounted in your sketchbook
with reflection explaining why you’ve taken them, and any
lighting and compositional techniques that you have used.
Research one of the following historical photographers:
Ansel Adams
Rineke Djikstra
Diane Arbus
Raghu Rai
Lewis Baltz
Francesca Wood
Berenice Abbott
Eugene Atget
Fay Godwin
Margaret Bourke-White
Richard Avedon
You must analyse 4 images of the photographers work. This MUST
NOT be a biography or plagarised.
I look forward to seeing the work you have produced in the coming weeks.
Kind Regards,
Jaskirt Boora
Photography and Media teacher.
