For more than 60 years the Department of Photography and Film at Salisbury provided education for professional photographers and cinematographers.

Starting in 1956 with part-time courses at The College of Art it developed to become one of the country’s leading provincial centres.

With over 200 pages of illustrations, stories and a chronological narrative ‘The Right Exposure’ published in 2021 uses an eclectic mix of fact and ephemera to tell the fascinating story of this hugely influential department.

It will appeal to students past and present, local historians and anyone interested in education for photography and filmmaking.
