Curriculum
These special introductory Night Photography Workshops will be held on February 10 and 11, from 6:15pm to 10pm at locations on Mare Island.

This workshop is for people who would like to learn how to better photograph after dark, with either digital cameras or film, in industrial and 'mixed-use' enivronments. Workshop participants will utilize existing artificial light sources along with supplemental lighting. In the more developed areas of the former shipyard, the exposures will be relatively short, mostly illuminated by streetlight and ambient light.

Emphasis will be on evaluating existing lighting situations and exposing accordingly. Transparency, b/w, color negative films, as well as digital will be discussed and compared. This is an intensive workshop limited to 15 participants who will be closely supervised on location.

Supplemental lighting possibilities will be discussed and demonstrated, with an emphasis on "Light Painting" techniques, where appropriate. Students provide their own equipment and should be familiar with basic photographic techniques. A basic, 'low-tech' equipment and film list for digital and film cameras, as well as a pre-workshop questionnaire, and meeting details for the Workshop will be provided upon registration

Equipment
You will need, at minimum: a 35mm or digital SLR-type (newer 'mirrorless' OK also) camera, tripod, and a cable release or remote control to accomplish timed photo exposures of 2 to 10 minutes or more in length. A penlight, 'countdown' digital timer or watch, and larger (e.g. 3-4 D-cell MagLite) flashlight - for 'light painting' exercises. More information. camera, lens and/or film recommendations and other suggestions are available upon registration.
