This master gives a complete didactic education for all the photographic professional disciplines, paying particular attention to the relation between traditional and digital photography. With the Global Master, the student learns both fashion professional photography and Still Life photography, without forgetting the traditional chemistry and its applications in the darkroom. Moreover, he specializes also in reportage and digital retouching on Macintosh systems using Photoshop, and he will learn how to create web sites using both HTML language and Flash animation. Obviously, there will be a non-stop relation with the institute, to improve the creative possibilities of the student and to give him, at the end of this course, an absolutely complete and professional education in any commercial sector of photography he will operate.

Programme of the Master

At the beginning, the student will have to attend Basic Photography, which will give him the basic technical and expressive elements for the following courses. At the middle of this stage, he will have the possibility to attend simultaneously the Master in digital retouching, the Media & Comunication Master and the Master in Darkroom.
At the end of the three masters, he will be able to attend the Master in Reportage, Still Life and Fashion. At the end, he will produce six Books divided into the different professional specialities.
This Master lasts indicatively a complete school year, with the possibility of beginning it in October or in the period February/March. To enrol, as for its particular type of education, you need a reservation, in some school years, six months before and you need to pass an interview to evaluate the real motivation of the student and his artistic skills. As far as the programmes of the courses are concerned, you will only have to refer to the brochure, but you have to remember that, compared to those who attend only one or two specialities, you will have a better education due to the links that exist among the different photographic disciplines. This will give to the student a global vision of the problem to face, and the ability to solve it immediately, using the experience gained by every speciality.
Because of its peculiarity, the gradual way of teaching, and the formation of a suitable professional profile, the attendance of the Global Master of Professional Photography is compulsory, and the absence not seriously motivated by a written paper will be taken into consideration for the final mark, expressed in thirtieths.
At the end of the Global Master, the student will receive a global certificate of professional photographic education that consider, as well as the single results obtained during the courses, also the aspects of personal evolution and general culture reached during the school year.
Moreover, the Tutor of the student will personally give him all the information and advice concerning the starting of his job and the initial strategies of the specific marketing.
Obviously, this course is useful only for those who really want to turn photography into a high level job and, of course, into a choice of life.
