HSAD Photo Arts students graduate with a strong portfolio demonstrating breadth and quality in technical skills and creative imaging abilities. During this 15-week accelerated certificate program, students explore a number of themes as they develop their individual photographic style.
Students will begin by learning the principles of photography by creating black and white images with historical techniques and technologies such as homemade pinhole cameras, low-tech toy and instant cameras, 35mm film cameras, as well as printing images in a darkroom using historical and traditional printing techniques. Evolving from traditional photography processes, students will then move into using and understanding digital SLR cameras and colour processes, including large scale printing and alternative applications such as screen printing.
Our faculty are all professional photographers whose work represents the broad range of possibilities for a career in photography. Students benefit from exposure to a variety of photographic expressions within the genre, and the individual creative approach and style each faculty member brings to the studio.
In addition to acquiring proficiency in digital and traditional photography platforms, students learn practical skills such as how to organize their workflow in the Professional Practice and Business course. This combination of skills prepares students to start their own studio practice as an independent photographer, or to continue their education with advanced studies.
The photography facilities at HSAD provide students unique opportunities to experiment and develop their individual style. Students have access to a wet darkroom with 4x5 enlargers, Lomo cameras, lighting equipment in the photo studio, and scanners, and a large format photo printer. The Centre for Making houses an inkjet printer, 3D printers, and laser and vinyl cutters for further creative exploration.
