What?
Come and learn about Through The Viewfinder photography and make your
own contraption at fizzPOP‘s TTV Workshop.
Local artist-photographer Pete Ashton has been shooting TTV photos
since discovering the technique in 2006 and offers you the chance to
make your own. Not only will you have a weird-assed hunk of vintage
camera, cardboard and gaffer-tape to point your camera through, you’ll
also learn interesting and exciting things about the very nature of
photography.
Thrill to the possibilities of analogue manipulation of images before
they hit the camera sensor!
Gasp at the shocking idiocy of the Auto setting!
Shudder at the creative possibilities of limitations!
Wonder at the improvement in your composition through slowing the hell
down!
The workshop lasts for three hours on Saturday the Saturday 10th
September. You’ll learn the how and why, built your own contraption,
shoot some photos, process and review them and go away ready and able
to join the Experimental Photography Community.
When:
Saturday 10th September, 10am-1pm.
Where?
Faraday Wharf , Aston Science Park, Holt Street, B7 4BB, Birmingham.
If you get really lost give the fizzPHONE (07754 634993) a call on the
day of the workshop.
How much?
The workshop costs £16 per person. You can bring your own vintage
camera to contraptionise (Kodak Duaflex or similar is recommended) or
buy one on the day for £20. Cardboard and tape will be provided.
