16mm Bolex Camera Basics Workshop

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. We will begin by discussing what makes film unique and looking at some examples. Participants will then learn how to shoot with the Bolex; how to utilize its various functions for creative effects such as slow-motion, stop-motion, multiple exposures, and pixilation; how to use a light meter, and the various ways to control light. Each participant will leave the workshop having shot a single roll of black and white 16mm film, which they can either send out for processing at a commercial lab, or process themselves at a subsequent processing workshop at AgX – after which they'll be able to project and view the results right in our space.

Workshop taught by AgX members Stefan Grabowski and Raymond Rea.

Cameras and film will be provided.

Space limited to 10 participants.

Event will take place rain or shine.

Registration will be open until the maximum number of attendees is reached.
