Day 1
We had a great first day talking about the Golow Gas Project and learning about the beautiful Bolex movie cameras, different film gauges, lenses, F numbers and light meters.
In two groups, we walked around the college campus taking small films of trees, birds and people moving in the landscape. Towards the end of the day, we experimented with burning various metals and dried plants capturing our findings on film. These reels were then developed using Caffenol, an eco-friendly solution made using coffee and other household products. A full and enjoyable day of learning and playing with the movie cameras and cine film.
