Have more fun taking pictures by learning how your 35mm film camera works. This course will teach you everything you need to know about shutter speeds, f-stops, light meters, lenses, filters, flashes, and how to make professional looking black & white prints in the darkroom. The course includes four two-hour classroom periods on Wednesday evenings from 7:30 to 9:30pm, and six weeks of unlimited use of the new black & white darkroom. The cost of the darkroom chemistry is included in the tuition, but you must supply your own camera and film. Any classes you might miss can be made up during a following semester. Register for the Beginning Film Photography Class by calling Don 303-444-4568 before June 6th.

The Beginning Film Photography Class will be
offered again in August, or, you can arrange for a private class in using a film camera and/or using a darkroom to make black and white prints.

    If you have some film camera familiarity, this is your course, regardless of darkroom experience. The content is similar to that of the Beginning Class, but after a review of the basics, we'll discuss creative techniques like multiple exposures, long time exposures, panning, zooming, working in very dim light, filters and flash photography. You'll learn to see the way a camera does, how Composition really works, and how to make very good photographs of practically any subject, with any film: Black and White, Color Slides or wonderful Color Negatives.
   Then you will learn not only how to make great Black & White prints in the darkroom, and special effects like solarization, high contrast Kodalith, and toning but creative ways to use your film photographs in Photoshop to make great web pages or self published books.
   This course includes 4 two-hour classroom periods from 7:30 to 9:30 pm on Wednesdays, and 6 weeks unlimited use of the B&W Darkrooms, as well as free make-up credit for whatever classes you might happen to miss.

The Creative Film Photography Class will be
offered again starting in September.
