1 Day Colour Darkroom Printing Workshop (6hr)
I am running a number of workshops and courses at the newly added colour darkroom at Hulkes Lane Darkroom and Studio in Rochester, Kent.
On this 1 Day (6 hour*) intensive course you will learn how to make hand-made colour prints in the HL colour darkroom. With one-to-one tuition, you will be shown how to print from your colour negatives the traditional way using a professional De Vere 504 enlarger with Dichromat head. This intensive workshop is suitable for beginners with little or no B&W experience.
Day 1 will take you through the colour printing process:
- Introduction to the De Vere 504 enlarger.
- How to create a contact sheet from a set of negatives.
- How to print an enlargement from your chosen negative.
- How to use Yellow, Magenta and Cyan (YM+C) filtration.
- How to assess YM+C colour casts.
- How to correct YM+C colour casts.
You will need to bring along some well exposed colour negatives (35mm, 120 or 5x4) and a small notebook to keep track of your adjustments to take part in the workshop. All other equipment is provided as part of the workshop.
- The HL colour darkroom uses the following equipment:De Vere 504 enlarger with Dichromat head.
- Durst Printo RA-4 Paper Processor (prints up to 12 x 16”).
- Fuji Crystal Archive paper (8 x 10” or 10 x 12’).
