Aimed at training the participant in the basic techniques of the silver based photographic processing (also called analog), so that he/she obtains an understanding of the process in all its phases by practicing them.
Specific works on sensitive material (film and paper) behaviour, chemical dilutions, a method of light measuring, light tests on film and paper and the final printing on paper will be worked on.
During the workshop, special attention will be paid to the understanding and practice of the four basic phases of the silver photographic process.
Analog Process in Black and White is located in the Initiation level of the IEFC Darkroom itinerary, which also includes Darkroom Sessions (advanced level) and Argentic Series (advanced level).
