Electives
Photography
Future school has a Dark Room, which is used by the Analogue Photography Students. The students learn to use film cameras and use film to capture their photographs. They then use traditional process using chemicals to develop the negatives and use an enlarger in the darkroom to enlarge and develop their images.
They also create Pinhole Camera photos and photograms. Students this age are new to analogue photography as most of them were born in the digital era. Some of them get to see and handle a film camera for the first time. The idea that they have to spend time to process and develop the image as opposed to being able to see it instantaneously is novel to them. They find the whole process fascinating and are really taking to it and some of them are good at it.
They are working towards creating a body of work that is of good quality so that we can exhibit their work. So look out for this exhibition in the months after the holidays.
