Photography is so much more than a quick phone snap; the hands-on experience of analog processes are undeniably fascinating. Here is your opportunity to get a glimpse into the world of darkroom film photography and alternative processes.
Traditional & Alternative Film Processing will go over traditional chemistry based black & white film developing, as well as alternative film development techniques, such as Caffenol, Green Tea and Salt Fixers. Alternative film processing methods involve non-toxic chemicals that may be found in your kitchen to achieve different looks from your film.
Students will need to bring their own film (35mm or 120mm) already exposed but not processed. All other supplies will be provided.
