*This has sold out - stay tuned for more 16mm related workshops and pay-what-you-can sessions from T.A.P.E.*

‍

T.A.P.E. presents intro to 16mm B&W and in-camera special effects, led by working filmmaker, artist and Mono No Aware alum Julie Orlick.

‍

This 16mm intensive is a comprehensive run down of the Bolex Rex-5 camera and its features. We will cover best practices for shooting using a light meter and will work collaboratively across 2 rolls of film, in 2 groups of 3. Using in camera editing techniques and the built in features of the Bolex for special effects, participants will learn how to create double exposures, a cross fade, DIY matte boxing techniques and animation.

‍

Along with a crash-course on different film stocks readily available and where to get them, we'll also go over different labs to work with for processing and scanning as an independent filmmaker. At the end of the workshop the film will be professionally processed and 2K digitally scanned for all participants to receive back.

‍

All participants will get 40 seconds of footage and decide if they would like to shoot in-studio or outdoors, or a combination of both.

‍

This is multiple workshops in one with equipment, materials, film stock, processing and post production scanning all included. Taking this workshop will create proficiency among participants and get them ready to rent the Bolex at T.A.P.E. equipment rentals, and other camera houses in Los Angeles.

‍

6 participant slots available.

Julie Orlick (b. 1990; Los Angeles, California) is an experimental filmmaker, analog photographer, poet & artist. She has written, produced, and edited over 13 short experimental films in 16mm. Orlick’s visual landscape is evocative of the nascent stages of the artform in tandem with cult-cinema of mid-century American experimental filmmaking. Using a Bolex h16 Rex-5, her style employs in-camera tricks, multiple exposures, slow and fast motion, and superimpositions to cumulatively effect a pastiche of 20th century pop-culture, an epoch intimately bound to and defined by film.
