4short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What is one light, one angle?
Show answer
Shooting everything the same way misses exploration. Work in a series, varying the controls, and review the results.
What is manipulation to disguise weak work?
Show answer
Heavy editing to rescue a poor source image reads as a fix, not a choice. Make manipulation deliberate, acknowledged and part of the enquiry.
What is q1?
Show answer
Name four controls a photographer uses to author an image, and what each does. [Knowledge recall]
What is q2?
Show answer
Explain how a photographer can make an empty chair feel significant rather than ordinary without changing the chair. [Short explanation]
