Taught by Festival filmmaker Ken Paul Rosenthal, this comprehensive, 2-part,
10-hour workshop will introduce filmmaking as a fine, but renegade, art
form. Two areas of alternative production will be covered in great detail;
direct manipulation and hand-processing. The emphasis is on low-to-no-tech
experimentation. An excellent primer for those who are new to making film
as a means of personal expression, or those looking to put some "funk"
into their films. Participants are encouraged to bring exposed Super-8
Ektachrome film to process for Sunday's session.
