Fotografi GR (A), Digital bildbehandling för foto och film
Welcome to Mid Sweden University!
Hello!
A warm welcome to the course Fotografi GR (A), Digital bildbehandling för foto och film and as a student at Mid Sweden University.
My name is Kevin Gater, and I will be the course coordinator. I’m originally from the UK and have been teaching visual arts for over 20 years. When I’m not teaching, I’m involved in film and media production, gaining valuable experiences that I’ll share with you throughout this course. The course is taught in English, but feel free to message me in Swedish if you prefer.

The course is designed to be as flexible as possible for you to study at a distance. There will be scheduled live sessions that you’re warmly welcome to attend if your timetable allows. These sessions will be recorded and shared on our learning platform, Canvas, so you can catch up shortly afterward. I’ll meet you live at the start of the course to walk you through Canvas and your assignments.

Four weeks before the start of the course, you will see your schedule.

Education information
For the course, it is necessary to have access to a computer capable of photo and video editing. Check the system’s minimum requirements to ensure your computer can run the software smoothly. We will be using Adobe Photoshop during the first half of the course and DaVinci Resolve (free version) for the second half. You may need to purchase a license to use Photoshop if you don’t already have one. With a student discount, it currently costs around 200 SEK per month.
It’s also worth investing in an external hard drive (about 1 TB) to store your media files.
While the principles you learn can be applied to other software, we will only provide support for the programs demonstrated in the course—Photoshop and DaVinci Resolve.
