Description of module content:

Scoping Industry is designed to bridge academic study with professional photographic practice. Through tutorials, group visits, and seminars, you will develop a comprehensive case study focusing on an individual or an organisation within the creative industries that professionally produces or utilises photography. Building on this research, you will then create an applied photographic project that reflects the insights gained from your case study, enhancing both your practical skills and industry understanding.This approach aligns with Edinburgh Napier University's commitment to delivering industry-facing education that equips students with the professional, technical, contextual, and creative skills essential for a career in photography.
