Other information

This course will comprise discussion and presentation of the lives and works of a range of photographers based on publicly available videos, films, documentaries, interviews, readings or attendance at exhibitions. For each photographer there will also be an underlying conceptual question to frame the discussion. It is, however, expected that a few (not all) members may volunteer to lead the discussion for an individual session, in much the same way as people volunteer to review a film.

REQUIREMENTS: Access to Netflix, YouTube, IView, and SBS on Demand

An interest in how photographers as individuals, flawed or otherwise, have explored, captured, exposed, exploited, contributed, enhanced or otherwise impacted on our changing lives and societies.  Students will not be expected to take photos or display any work, in fact they don’t have to own a camera or even take photographs on an iPhone.

TUTOR: Rob’s interests include photography and film

Enrolment Forms received before this date are treated as though they had been received on the start date (ie there is no advantage to be gained by submitting early). On the start date and thereafter, paper Enrolment Forms are numbered in order of receipt.  Paper Enrolment forms are processed by U3APP volunteers on the same day as on-line bookings.
