Introduction to Studio

Before you enrol, please be aware of the following:

All students must attend a minimum of 7 out of the 9 classes each term in order to receive a pass. If this is not possible, you will need to discuss this with your lecturer or the admin team.

You can request an extension from your lecturer for the final assessment, however, the maximum extension is two weeks. If you are unable to hand in your work by this time you will need to resit the class. If it is due to extenuating circumstances, please discuss this with your lecturer.

If your circumstances change and it is no longer possible for you to study, you have until Week 5 of term to defer your course to a following term within the next year. However refunds cannot be issued, and students are liable for all tuition fees as of the Term Census Date, which is the last Friday of the previous term. Fees paid are rolled over to the returning term. Withdrawals prior to the Term Census Date will forfeit the 20% non-refundable deposit paid.

For online study of this course you will require a two head studio lighting kit. We reccomend the following:

Godox 400ii dual head kit:
This kit comes with a wireless trigger to set your lights off: https://www.hypop.com.au/products/godox-starter-800w-2x-sk400ii-studio-flash-lighting-kit
This kit is cheaper but will require a trigger: https://dragonimage.com.au/products/godox-sk400ii-studio-flash-400ws-2-heads-kit-with-roller-bag
If you go for the cheaper kit we strongly reccomend this trigger set. We find it is very durable and lasts a long time. Please chat to hypop to check it will work with your camera. https://www.hypop.com.au/products/godox-dm-16-16-channel-studio-flash-trigger-set
