lighting still life

The assignments are written with the assumption that the aspiring photographer has a limited knowledge of the practical application of studio lighting. It is important the assignments are completed in the order in which they are written. Each lesson learnt from one applies to the assignment that follows. To attempt to produce the assignments out of sequence will mean certain information relating to lighting development and metering techniques will be missed.
The criteria set out in each assignment should be followed as closely as possible as it forms a major part of the practical learning process. Where possible it is advisable that each assignment be workshopped at a group level with guidance and direction. Individuals should then attempt to complete their own interpretation of the brief within a specified period. 

The assignment brief is itemised into specific requirements. These requirements must be successfully completed as a basis for any assessment of the completed image. Interpretation of the brief beyond these
requirements is encouraged but not at the expense of the basic criteria. All information relevant to the completion of each assignment should be compiled in the Record Book.
