This short manual tries to explain, with a few clearly expressed
terms and lots of explanatory images, the main basic
photographic techniques.
Its aim is to guide students in the use of the photographic ‘medium’
through the use of cameras and simple rules of image
composition, rules that have already been used in painting for
several centuries, too.
Through the medium of photography, students will be skilled in a
non-verbal and inclusive language which uses the image as a
form of expression. Moreover, it allows students with difficulties in
oral exposition to broaden their social context, learning how to deal
with people who don't belong to their family, class or circle of
friends.
