In this 1-day workshop, students learn the basic operating principles and functions for making photographs and developing black and white film with their analog cameras. In the morning, you learn the fundamentals of light and composition, how to create a properly exposed image, camera mechanics (including how to load a roll of film), and more. We move on to exposing your rolls of film in-camera (making photographs!) and learn the basics for developing it. How do I load a film reel? What chemicals do I use and in what order? How does time and temperature affect the film? These questions, among others, will be answered in a hands-on darkroom experience.

 One roll of film is included in the cost of the workshop. Maximum 6 students. No prior photographic experience necessary. Parental consent required for children under 18 years old (minimum age is 15).
