Learning outcomes of the course unit
The course focuses on understanding and practising digital imaging not only as an alternative to classical photography but also as a modern creative tool for advancing creative photography. First-year students will learn the basic principles of photographic picture raster scanning and transforming it into a data file through a computer. Students will get to know the functions of a computer and its peripheries as alternatives to the processing of photography in a dark room. Simultaneously, the first year will serve to balance the computer knowledge of individual students. The course will also explain and determine the organisation of work on a school computer.
