Analogue Filmmaking: Motion Picture Pinhole Camera

RAW STOCK Film Collective in partnership with FLUX Media Gallery (Victoria, BC) are running a Motion Picture Pinhole Camera workshop. This back to basics, hands-on, analogue photography workshop will teach you all you need to know to create your very own pinhole motion picture. From constructing a camera, shooting a mini movie, to eco-developing, you’ll learn the joy of drawing with light. All materials will be provided and participants will leave with their own camera, film and hopefully some happy memories. Instructor: Anthony Carr (founding member of RAW STOCK Film Collective) Cost: $50 Location: FLUX Media Gallery, 1524 Pandora, Victoria Date: Sun April 27th 2025, 1-5pm For more info or to book your place email anthonycarr1977@sky(dot)com Participant numbers will be kept low to maximise contact time with instructor! Workshop Description: Intended for analogue beginners and aficionados alike, this workshop will help participants learn how to: *make a simple but perfectly functional analogue film camera *use it to shoot a set of movie film stills *develop the film stills using homemade eco-friendly, plant-based film processing * turn the movie stills into a mini movie This workshop coincides with the annual Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, so participants have the chance to be a permanent part of this photographic archive, alongside other pinhole masterpieces and masters of their craft. https://pinholeday.org/ Anthony Carr is a British Canadian visual artist, working in photography, sculpture and the moving image.
