WHERE: Darkroom, Eliot and Stanley Holland Room, Eliot Cloisters
WHEN: Saturday 10:00-16:00
Led by artists from Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film (BEEF) this one-day workshop introduces the Bolex, a clockwork 16mm film camera loved by generations of filmmakers from documentary makers to animators to artists. In the morning, participants will learn to shoot short rolls of black & white film. Thought will be given to the imaginative negotiations of the constraints of this machine by artists such as Andy Warhol, Maya Deren and others. In the afternoon, we will divide into small groups to develop the film using Lomo tanks in the darkroom.
This is the first of two, one-day workshops. No previous experience with filmmaking is needed for either workshop, and you are welcome to book for just one workshop, or both.
The cost of one workshop is £20, and £35 for both. To book go to store.kent.ac.uk and search for Projections.
There is a ‘Bring Your Own Beamer’ event on Sunday evening at 19:00, which participants are welcome to attend, with Matt and Marcy, to project work created in the workshops.
