Course overview
Course description
This is a four-week course for beginners in digital photography. This practical course aims to help each learner to get started and gradually extend their understanding and confidence in using their chosen camera to get good pictures. Learners will get to grips with some basic guidelines in framing and composing good shots, using the camera from different angles and getting closer to their subject, whatever it is. All this will be done in a supportive and non-threatening environment, with lots of help and encouragement. Once your confidence is growing, you will learn how to share your photographs with family and friends and if you use social networks like Facebook, how you can upload your photography.
After the course you can further your learning by progressing to a longer more in-depth accredited or non-accredited course.
This course is FREE to learners living within the Coalfields Regeneration Trust /Easington Lane area – please contact us if you require further details.
