This collaborative workshop between IFCO and SPAO will be a hybrid of photographic disciplines which will include shooting 16mm black and white film using IFCO’s 16mm Bolex motion picture camera(s) to create individual portraits on film. Each student will be able to select a theme, using a lottery system.

Students will be instructed on the basic principles of photo composition using a 16mm Bolex motion picture camera; hand processing film using traditional methods, and printing still photographs using a 35mm enlarger. The negatives of the motion picture footage will be scanned digitally to create a film, which will be included in an installation alongside a photo exhibition.

Learn to shoot using 16mm Bolex film cameras (Day 1 - July 21st); and
hand processing of motion picture footage (Day 2- July 22nd).
