Photography Diploma Level 3

What will I learn?

Do you have a passion for photography? Would you like to learn more about photography techniques and the photographic industry? If you could see yourself working for Vogue on fashion styling projects, photographing designer goods in far off places for high-end advertising campaigns, or capturing hard-to-reach wild animals for National Geographic magazine, this Level 3 Diploma & Extended Diploma is the course for you. You’ll cover an incredible range of genres on our dynamic photography course, including portrait, fashion, landscape, documentary, still life and experimental image making. You’ll learn the differences between location and studio photography, and how to effectively organise photo shoots. From start to finish, you’ll develop creative concepts and research plans, before taking the photos and then focusing on editing and specialist darkroom and advanced digital techniques in processing & printing.A big part of the course will be getting out into the real world, and you’ll spend a large amount of time taking part in live briefs, helping you to develop experience in working environments. You’ll also have the chance to get involved with the ‘Greater Mancunians’ project, photographing the people who have culturally shaped the city. As with nearly all of our creative qualifications, this Diploma and Extended Diploma is awarded by University of the Arts London Awarding Body - the only specialist creative arts awarding body in the UK.
