Intended learning outcomes

To give the student the opportunity to further deepening and reflection on, and the application of, various visualization techniques to express their artistic ideas, issues and expressions.
After completing the course the student should be able to:

  • apply a number of visual elements and linguistic concepts (proportion, balance, direction, visual rhythm / movement, volume / surface area, light / dark and materiality) as analytical tools in a design process
  • apply these image elements and linguistic concepts and their interaction in order to discuss problems and formulate a more complex spatial design on a flat surface
  • outline how visual communication and design is reflected in art history, different directions, "isms," from the late 1800s to post-modernism and contemporary art
  • manage a number of tools in his / her exhibition work such as lighting, modeling and message handling
  • create a photographic artwork based on independent studio work
After completing the course the student should has gained insights in:
  • various respects, and ways of artistic perception and see the outside world, its forms and phenomena
  • how the two-or three-dimensional shape expression is affected by how the image linguistic elements applied, singly and together
  • basics of lighting, exposure and metering of Photography
  • different types of cameras, lenses and films and their various uses how people in different times embodied experiences of themselves in relation to the environment and contemporary
