Required Prior LearningIt is advisable/or at HOD discretion that students who wish to enter L1 Creative Media Art must have completed a Year 10 Visual Art course, either the full or half year course. The course must have been completed satisfactorily in terms of behaviour and achievement. If the criteria are met then students can advance to L1 Visual Art. Students who have completed Digital Media at year 10 will also be considered. Students can only select one Art option at L1 as it draws from the same standards.
This course is a digitally based Art course where students learn to use Photoshop to design images. Students gain experience using a digital SLR camera and learn to use a Wacom drawing tablet. The course is based around a central theme. Students will complete 2 dimensional designs for a single panel portfolio and a one off moving image piece for an exhibition- this could be a time lapse, short animation or a digital installation. Students will learn to develop and progress their ideas through a range of media and disciplines. It will be an advantage to those students wishing to pursue Design and Illustration and Photography at L2.
