Photographic and Digital Media (PDM) Report

Over the last term Year 10 have been focusing on colour and light to produce a portfolio of work. They started the unit of work by photographing different coloured filtered torches onto scrunched foil, resulting in beautiful textured abstract pieces. We then explored ‘light painting’ in a dark room using nothing but glow sticks and a long exposure setting on the DSLR cameras. After this, students learnt about the photographer Richard Mosse who photographed the Democratic Republic of Congo and turned green war-torn landscapes into bright magenta photographs. Students then took their own photographs and used editing to achieve a similar effect. Please enjoy the following photographic pieces by a range of students in Year 10 PDM: Olivia H., Tobias B., Nina O., James W. and Nancy Z.
