Pathway to EQF Diploma

1. What is Photography?
This first lesson explores photographic styles and how they are used as forms of communication. This lesson also explains the process of capturing and recording. Understanding the concept of exposure, is essential to your ability to capture the scene, the way you see it. Finally we take look at the various types of cameras currently available and why you would use one over the other.
2 Camera Functions and Lenses
In lesson 2, we will look at the common functions that appear on most cameras and demystify their use. Understanding these functions will expand your creative control and open up new possibilities for your images. We also explore the most frequently used lenses and when and where they are used.
3 Motion and Depth
Controlling and manipulating motion and depth in your images will allow you to add drama and sophistication to your images. Whether you want to freeze an athlete in action or blur the background of a portrait, controlling motion and depth will expand your capabilities and allow you to explore new subjects.
4 Composition
Composition refers to the placement and relationship of elements within a picture. The arrangement of elements in a scene, the angle they are shot at, and the distance the photo is taken from, can completely change the final outcome of your photograph. Understanding how to explore all of the compositional possibilities of the scene will greatly improve your ability to capture the best photographs.
5 How Much Light is enough?
To fully understand how much light, you need to capture for a scene, you need a way of measuring how much light is there. Lesson 5 looks at the light meter and discusses how it can be used to understand your exposure, even before you have taken the picture and is essential to moving into Full Manual mode.
6 Fully Manual Mode
The marriage of shutter and aperture in manual mode gives you the most creative control offered to you by the camera. Having an understanding of the relationship between the two, will allow you to expand the potential of your photography and make creative decisions that were not available to you before!
7 The Colour of Light
In Lesson 7, we look at the different colours of various light sources and how they can change the atmosphere and mood of your photographs. We explore focusing and how it is key for taking high quality photographs that are sharp and capture your vision.
8 The Digital Image
Here we explore file format and how digital images are constructed. This gives you an insight into the file formats available on your camera which equips you with the knowledge to select the highest quality file format and image size that best suits your purpose. We will also look at some image editing software and the key differences between the most popular ones on the market.u benefit them?Getting to Know Social Media.

I'm doing the Photograph course and it's amazing!! I'm only 4 lessons in and I've already learned so so much. They break it down really well for everyone to be able to understand. I had no idea I would be learning this much from an Internet course. I would recommend this to everyone what wants to use their camera and get into photography.

I am doing the photography course and I must say it is fantastic. My tutor Tom is very friendly and he takes his time to explain things so that even beginners can understand. The info is broken down into each lesson so that its not too overwhelming. Very enjoyable lessons so far and it has already helped me make improvements to my photography. Look forward to the rest of the lessons and the further improvements these will make to my photography.
I started the Foundation course with Shaw academy on the 4th of January this year, and I can honestly say that it was by far the most rewarding and informative beginning course into photography. The clarity in which everything was explained and the attention to each individual's questions was outstanding! The support team is incredibly professional and patient. I can honestly say without a doubt that I am more confident in my work as a budding photographer and look forward to doing many more courses through Shaw Academy!
