Kiila and Catalysti will be co-organising this current series of the Skillshare sessions (part of Catalysti’s Educator’s Circle Programme). Below are the details for the session on 18.06 (Saturday). You are invited to participate in the session facilitated by Marek Pluciennik –– we’d love to see you there!
Time: 18.06.2022, Saturday, 10am-18.00
Place: Pulttitie 17, 00880 Helsinki
The Lab is a 10 min walk from the Siilitie Metro.
About the session:
The workshop will introduce black and white 16mm film developing techniques using a Lomo tank. The participants will shoot and develop the film in a developer made from scratch by the participants themselves. The workshops bring together Kiila and Catalysti members to meet, learn from each other and share their knowledges. This workshop has place for 10-12 participants and will primarily be conducted in English (but Finnish too, if and when required).
About Marek Pluciennik:
Marek Pluciennik is a Polish/Canadian filmmaker and cinema artist based in Helsinki. His work focuses on the material and ephemeral nature of the film medium. In his latest works, he interfaces traditional projectors with digital micro-controllers as he explores visual motion perception in the frame-based medium. The works are a meditative study at the extreme boundaries of apparent movement.
The workshop has no registration fee however there would be material costs (film/developing agents/studio) of 15 euro/person. This amount can be paid before or on the day of the workshop in any one of the following ways:
