Intro to Bolex: Colour

Info

On colour film, we’ll learn about the camera, the medium of film, and ways which 16mm filmmakers have registered notations or used the camera for notetaking. Participants will work in pairs using one of the working methods presented and try to raise questions as to what the form of a note can be.

You will learn to:

  • Load the camera
  • Use light metering
  • Shoot on Colour Film

You will also learn about different workflow options for self-shooters.

This workshop will not only introduce the camera but also briefly examine the sketchbooks and notes of Donald Rodney, Rose Lowder, Nina Porter, and a few others.
