Unit 13 - 3.1 Solve practical and technical problems within a personal self-directed A&D project.


Unit 13 - 3.1   Solve practical and technical problems within a personal self-directed A&D project.


With this being your final major project with the image destined to be exhibited, the quality of your images needs to be exceptional. In order to achieve this, the project will need to have been developed as a practical and technical exercise over several shoots, looking to iron out any possibility of any defects or mishaps.

Your work will need to have been produced in response to research produced at the start of the unit. As part of the research you would have had to explore how the work you’ve looked at in your research was produced, analysing how issues such as quality, finish and production values were addressed. This potentially would have left you with practical and technical problems to address in your own work. These will need to be identified and addressed showing that you have been able to solve practical and technical problems.

Problems that you would expect to encounter and identify might include…

·         Light

·         Exposure

·         Composition

·         Post production

·         Organisation/Planning issues

·         Lenses

·         Depth of field

·         Scale/size/enlarging

·         Presentation

·         Resources/equipment

 

All of which could have been discussed at the proposal stage with contingency plans suggested and planned for.
