Introduction to Analogue Black and White Photography for PrintmakersDescriptionThis 2 day workshop focusses on 35mm black and white film photography and darkroom processes, using analogue cameras and working in a traditional darkroom. Participants will explore the ins-and-outs of manual analogue cameras, how to correctly expose and develop traditional 35mm film, making contact sheets and prints in the darkroom from their negatives to archival exhibition standards. Aimed at printmakers, this course will also teach participants how to integrate analogue photography into photomechanical print processes, such as etching and silkscreen, through the making of enlarged film positives. Who is it for? This course will re-engage artists and printmakers with traditional 35mm film photography and maybe even with their own cameras that have lain dormant for a while. It is as much an introduction to analogue photography for newcomers as well as a refresher for lapsed photographers wanting to return to darkroom days of years gone by. This will be a physical course, delivered in person at our UWE City Campus (Bower Ashton) The course price includes all materials, PPE and catering.

Introduction to Rubber StampingDescriptionNearly everyone has the means of rubber stamp production in their pencil case: an eraser, scalpel, pencil and maybe even a stamp pad, all that’s needed is something to print on. When choosing an eraser the common misconception is 'the bigger the better’ but this is an error. Unlike linocut printing and other forms of relief printing, it isn’t purely a means of reproducing a motif, picture or design.
