NSW Department of Education and Training: The Arts Unit

Photography

"Kamaru Impact" (Brianne Brogden, Elizabeth Macarthur High School)Possibilities for works in this category include using:

  • conventional cameras
  • disposable cameras
  • panoramic cameras
  • polaroid cameras
  • photomontage
  • digital cameras
  • toy cameras
  • pinhole cameras
  • photograms
  • solarisation

Why not consider:

  • hand colouring black and white photographs.
  • manipulating photocopies of photographs.
  • using overhead transparencies.
  • combining photography with other forms such as collaging over photographs.
  • documenting performance or installation artworks photographically.

There are also hundreds of examples of student works and lessons available on the Teaching Resources CD available through The Arts Unit. For a more "hands-on" approach, why not look at attending one of the Operation Art Workshops which are held in many locations across New South Wales.
