On this course, you'll learn how to manipulate light in a variety of different ways so you can produce a series of photograms. Other techniques such as dodging, toning, pre-flashing, split grading, paper sensitising and more specialist techniques will also be covered.
Topics will include printing on resin-coated as well as fibre-based papers. You'll learn how to recognise tones and textures and be expected to produce a set of high quality silver gelatin prints.
At The Cass School of Art and Design, we have two fully equipped professional darkrooms for you to use, with a wide range of enlargers for both 35mm and medium format film.
This course is taught by Rod Morris.
