The first year is all film: a medium format camera, twelve frames at a time and nights in the darkroom. In the second year you add digital, and most people keep printing by hand anyway.
What you will do
- The camera
Light, exposure and the habit of looking for a long time before pressing anything.
- Darkroom
Developing, printing and toning black and white, then colour.
- The series
Twelve images that only work together. Harder than one good picture.
- The book
Year two ends with a photobook, edited on the crit wall and printed in the shed.
