A Photographic Life - 211: Teaching Photography Special

In episode 211 UNP founder and curator Grant Scott hands over the podcast to five of his photography graduates to explain what photography means to them. The students contributing to this week's episode include Cameron Howard, Laura Skog, Jack Rees, Sasha Burdian and Sophie Jeffreys. All five students are graduates from the Photography BA (HONS) at Oxford Brookes University a course created to reflect photography in the 21st Century led by Grant Scott. These are the first students to graduate from the course and their contributions were written and recorded under their own initiative as a response to previous contributions to the podcast. Grant had no input into their contributions and was unaware that the students had taken on the challenge until they were revealed to him at the students Degree Show Private View.
