3pm - 5.30pm

In this workshop you will learn how to contact print and hand process 16 mm film in an ecological developer known as 'caffenol'. Capture the shapes and traces of Strangebrew in dramatic moving black and white. See the results projected one hour later, and then again during the evening.

Participants will:
– make 16mm film contact prints
– brew eco-friendly developer
– load Lomo developer tank and process their films

Beginners welcome. All materials provided. Price includes ticket for The Brunswick Club's evening event at Strange Brew.

Workshop leader Vicky Smith has completed a short film Not (a) part that was made through the contact printing method. 
It is included on Grainy Realism, the compilation of her work released on TBC Editions in 2019.
