Description

How is it possible to make your own camera and take photos? Thanks to the pinhole camera, everyone can do it! Trainees will be invited to discover the beginnings of photography - Camera Obscura - and will be able to experience the magic of development in the dark.

This workshop allows us to enter into a slow time, far from the frenetic production of images, to look at and compose with what surrounds us.

This course is intended for those who like to invent, make and experiment with their hands, without any necessary prerequisites.

  • A workshop to simply understand how photographic shooting works: understanding through experience.
  • Revisiting the ancestor of the camera: the Camera Obscura and becoming aware of the technical evolution of photography.
  • Develop your creativity using a tool over which you cannot control everything: learn to take advantage of mistakes.
  • Enter into a slow pace of creation: observe, compose, tame the light.
  • Discover the magic of development in the darkroom.
  • Create images with little equipment (a box, paper, light).
  • Develop team spirit and a sense of teamwork.
  • Discover contemporary artists who work with the pinhole camera.

In concrete terms:

  • Construct your black box.
  • Produce your first images.
  • Develop a negative then a positive in the darkroom.
  • Work in pairs and share experiences in groups.
  • Choose the subjects to photograph, the setting, the point of view and the light.
  • Develop a series on a theme.
