Judith Campbell [née Pilcher], a graphics student from 1967-70 has given us "some pics taken way back.... all about 1967/68. Lynne Jenkins was my roommate for several years at Weavers and she was lucky enough to do colour photography, I managed to get her to give me an A4 print of Weavers Cottage, the High Street night scene and of Church Street". |

I lived at Weavers Cottage and because a few of us did our Foundation courses at other colleges before we came to BAA we started our 3 year dip course 2 weeks before the rest of the students so that we could learn to handle a camera....ie a crash Photographic course....I think there were 7 of us in all. |
On assignment clutching their Mamiya Twin lens reflex cameras are.... Lynne Jenkins (now Castell) John Kerr with whom I recently made contact, Sue Roberts (then Jackson now something else) lastly Philip Higson (who died recently in September 2003 - article here). We were all Graphics students. |

Corsham Court in it's classic view |
Two montage posters using photographs I took at art college. We had a lecturer Tony del Renzio, he was Harpers Bazaar or Queen's ex-creative director and he came to Corsham once or twice a week to lecture on design. The project I chose to do with him was a fashion mailing catalogue and I used a fellow student Sue Mann (the only married student in our year) to model for me. We gathered up the most interesting clothes we could find and spent a Saturday snapping away in the Coach House. At the time I was very pleased with the resulting photographs. |
