Assessment Objectives

Component 2 Externally set assignment:

• Choose one starting point and produce a personal response.

• You have a preparatory period to research, develop, refine and record your ideas.

• Following the preparatory period, you will have 10 hours of supervised time to complete your personal response.

• You may refer to your preparatory work during the supervised time, but the work must not be added to or amended once this time starts.

• You must clearly identify work produced during the supervised time.

• You will end your preparatory work (PowerPoint) with an evaluation but you can add to your PowerPoint during the supervised time as long as it is after your evaluation.

• You cannot ‘go back’ and fill in any blanks in your PowerPoint during the supervised time unless it is put afterthe evaluation.

• Your work will be marked out of 96.

• Your work will be marked according to how well you have shown evidence of:• (AO1) Developing ideas through investigations, demonstrating critical understanding of sources (24 marks)• (AO2) Refining work by exploring ideas, selecting and experimenting with appropriate media, materials, techniques and

processes (24 marks)• (AO3) Recording ideas, observations and insights relevant to your intentions as work progresses (24 marks)• (AO4) Presenting a personal and meaningful response that realises intentions and demonstrates understanding of visual

1. Crowds

Images of crowds can be created in many different ways. Film-maker and photographer Alex Prager has produced images where the viewer’s attention is drawn to a particular face in a crowd. Lisa Larsen’s documentary photographs often capture the mood of large crowds. In his series ‘7 Billion Humans in 2011’ Randy Olson uses Bokeh effect by manipulating shutter speed in order to emphasise movement in crowds. Kolman Rosenberg suggests a crowd of dancers through the use of multiple exposure.

Investigate relevant sources and produce your own response to Crowds.

2. Manipulating reality

Photographers often create unusual compositions by manipulating the reality that an image presents. Paul Biddle carefully arranges objects, together with layers of collage, before digitally manipulating his photographs. Kevin Corrado combines photographs of landscapes and people using both physical and digital manipulation to rearrange reality. Eresha Sale combines familiar objects in unfamiliar arrangements in his film ‘Surrealism’.

Study appropriate sources and produce your own work in response to Manipulating reality.
