The goal of this two-day workshop is to give students the tools and techniques necessary to gain exacting control over their black-and-white negatives and prints. The workshop will begin by introducing participants to a variety of negative-exposure and development methods, including the Zone System. The workshop can accommodate each student's style of working and subject matter. We will demonstrate and explore various film and developer combinations, including proper film selection for the subject, and how to determine and control subject contrast through exposure and development manipulation. Students will be introduced to various methods of how to deal with and correct "problem" negatives in the darkroom through the use of post-exposure techniques. We also will discuss negative archiving and storage. Upon completing this workshop, each student will leave with not only an in-depth understanding of the available technical tools, but also a much deeper knowledge of how to communicate their unique vision through the medium of black-and-white photography.
