Order Description • Research File (reflective production file). This must contain all research (written as well as visual), technical and project development information, The file must demonstrate a basic understanding of technical theory including F Stops, Aperture Control, ISO, Depth-Of-Field, Exposure and show an understanding of Black & White / Colour Processing and printing. All contact sheets and developmental work eg, tests sheets and lighting diagrams. A conclusion of around 500 word is also required in which you comment on what you have learnt and what could be improved. “The syllabus published in the approved unit outline is indicative, not exhaustive; you are therefore asked to note that this has been taken into account in planning the scheme of work in this unit handbook.
