| Rotation Aim | The Photographics Rotation focuses simultaneously on both, the principles of two-dimensional design as well as the principles of digital compositing. |
| Approach | By using any digital capturing device, we will capture digital stills and imagery. By using Adobe Photoshop, we will create a digital composition, adhering to the principles of two-dimensional design as well as the principles of digital compositing. By manipulating compositions both in black and white as well as colour and will further explore the interrelation ship between shape and colour. |
| Learning Outcomes | We will learn how to best analyse, capture, and process visual content by using an array of digital tools, such as a digital capturing device as well as Adobe Photoshop. Furthermore, we will be introduced into the language of two-dimensional design as well as the concept of digital compositing. |
