The Icon Photography School offers an online photography course for digital and film photographers. Our course is incredibly comprehensive and covers a wide array of topics. Sub from idea conceptualization and composition to lighting and color theory as it relates to photography. All of our students complete our photography course better photographers with more impressive portfolios than before they started our course.
Not only do we offer comprehensive course material, but we also offer a hands on and interactive learning environment where photography instructors will review and provide feedback on your assignments. This interactivity is incredibly important to help you progress as a photographer. If you are interested in enrolling in our online photography course please visit our homepage here.
How our photography course works:
Phase 1:
Complete each individual lesson. At the end of each lesson there is a quiz and an assignment. Both of these elements are optional but it is in your best interest as a photographer to complete the quizzes and assignments. Most of your advancement as a photographer will come from the completion of these hands on, practical assignments.
Phase 2:
Each of your quizzes will be graded. The grade is a self measuring tool to help you understand if you need to spend more time learning the concepts within the lesson. They have no impact on your final grade. We recommend if you score less than 75% that you re-read the lesson material and take the quiz again at a later time. These quizzes are not graded by our lesson instructors and are simply meant for you to gauge your lesson retention and comprehension levels.
Phase 3:
Each lesson will also have an assignment attached to it which will allow you to practice the concepts learned within each lesson. Again, these assignments are optional but it is STRONGLY encouraged that you complete these assignments. Once you complete the assignment you can upload your work to the student workspace and have your work viewed and commented on by other students and reviewed and critiqued by one of our staff members. You will receive your review / critique within 24 hours of posting your assignment Monday through Friday. Assignment submissions after Friday will not be graded until Monday.
Phase 4:
Near the end of the course you have assignments to create online and offline portfolios. This will help for both a personal sense of completion as well as for employment or gallery opportunities.
Phase 5:
One of our instructors will go through your online portfolio and will choose a picture to their liking that fits into a theme for an art magazine that we publish. The art magazine is a high end boutique magazine which caters to artists from all over the world. We publish mostly non-students in our magazine but as a mandatory component of our course we ask that you create at least 1 photograph which is of high enough quality to work in our art magazine.
Phase 6:
After you have completed all of the assignments, quizzes, portfolios and all other tasks which are asked of you throughout our course, you will need to take the final exam. The final exam can be accessed through your main student page. If you score over 80% on the final exam you will graduate our course with “Honours”.
Phase 7:
Once you finish the final exam your results will be emailed to us and upon a passing grade (60%) you will receive your personalized course completion certificate.
All the best with completing this course! We look forward to seeing your work along the way.
