DESCRIPTION
The course analyses the use of various elements used by image-makers and their commissioning agents, and the effects of these elements on the viewer. This course explores how pictures? whether media or fine art photographs, paintings, film stills, postcards or graphics ? are constructed, and how this construction affects how we view and interpret them.
