AgX is pleased to host an evening of films and poems with Derek Jenkins and Eugenia Zuroski
Join artists and filmmakers Yue Hua, Kathryn Ramey, and Sara Jordenö for an open conversation about navigating grants, residencies, fellowships, and project funding. Rather than offering a single "correct" way to apply, this workshop focuses on sharing practical strategies, lessons learned, and honest experiences from working artists.
Originally pioneered by Jean-Pierre Sudre in the 1960s as a subversive alternative to traditional still photography, Mordençage has been reimagined for the 16mm format. Mordençage is a bleach-etch process that destabilizes the very structure of the film. By chemically attacking the silver-rich areas of the emulsion, Mordençage allows the filmmaker to physically lift, reshape, and drape veiled images back onto the base.
Balagan Films and AgX are pleased to welcome Vancouver-based filmmaker, Lindsay McIntyre for a program of nine short films. Over the past two decades, McIntyre has produced over 45 films, mostly on 16mm, with a practice firmly rooted in community and indigenous cultural identity, all infused with a resolute DIY ethos and devotion to experimentation.

This workshop will explore alternative (eco/kitchen-sink) processing techniques on black and white film. There are a variety of recipes that yield excellent results. Film developing is never completely environmentally friendly, but you can minimize the risk to yourself and the environment significantly by processing your film with the recipes that we will teach in this class. We will teach both negative and reversal processing with chemicals easily accessible to the average person.
From the personal to the necropolitical, the artists in this program grapple with their own position as witnesses and the camera apparatus, the emulsion on the celluloid film strip, subtitles, video and audio signals as fickle and elusive, yet powerful, forms of evidence, while simultaneously embracing the relationship between sensing and making sense.
This single six-hour workshop, geared toward individuals with little or no experience shooting film, will focus on 16mm production basics using Bolex H16 Reflex cameras.
