In the Fictional Photography course, fictional photography planning and shooting techniques, digital manipulations, overlaps, mergers, metamorphisms are shown and applied in order to develop the creativity of the students. The subject of the image is theoretically taken into consideration and the effectiveness of visual production and communication through an environment in which the image is so strong is exemplified. It is aimed to gain knowledge and encourage the student to perform his / her own shooting instead of image banks. The student develops ideas for fictional photography and makes sketches, applies and presents the selected sketches using shooting and processing techniques.
