Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this darkroom class:

Since the 19th Century, platinum prints have offered a photographic tone unsurpassed by any other medium. In this workshop students will combine this capability with 21st Century digital imaging technology. Students will begin by following a procedure to test and calibrate digital negatives from a photo quality inkjet printer that will have the range and tonal scale needed to produce fine Pt/Pd prints.

The course moves between the digital printer and the Pt/Pd darkroom. Newcomers to the platinum process will learn the basics of coating, exposing, and developing, while students already familiar with the process can get right to work making new prints.

A general working knowledge of Photoshop is highly recommended. Students can bring their own picture files to work with (16-bit grayscale scans from film or RAW digital captures) and will be encouraged to take new pictures in CAP's daylight studio or the mid-town Manhattan surroundings. Students will be able to make a new photo and turn it into a fine Pt/Pd print in a matter of hours.

Question from Anne
Hi there, I am thinking of taking this course, totally new to DN and Pt/Pd darkroom, familiar with Lightroom but not with Photoshop. Which skills of Photoshop would I need to own in order to follow the course without difficulties? Thanks. Anne
Answer from Georgia C. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi Anne! If you are well equipped in Lightroom you are ahead of most. You will be doing slight curve adjustments and printer settings. The instructor also works one-on-one with you. So I think you will be fine!
