This document outlines the assessment objectives and requirements for a Year 10 photography unit focused on architecture. Students will be expected to produce a sketchbook with research on architectural photographers like Bernd & Hilla Becher and experiments with materials and techniques. They must take their own architectural photographs demonstrating composition skills. The final piece can be one photo or a collection presented to a high standard, drawing on the preparatory work. Key elements of successful architecture photography identified are geometric shapes, diagonals, reflections, framing with objects, texture, angles and repetition.
