"Don't Fence Me In"

"Don't Fence Me In" – Scan of an RC print. Image from a digital camera. The print was made in the traditional darkroom from an inkjet negative. The negative was contact printed under an enlarger. I'll be teaching this technique this semester at Brooklyn College.

Sounds like some useful techniques. What time is class?

First class is Tuesday, 9:30 AM and ends around 12:50 PM. This is a new class I've created because I'm worried about students being reluctant to buy film cameras. Most of them are curious about taking darkroom classes, but they don't think they will need a camera after that. And I think these days, the economy, the high cost of everything is at play here. I've been using this technique, like many do, to make negatives for alternative processes. So I thought, what the heck, let's bring it into the traditional darkroom.

Hi Ken, now, five months later, the semester is ending, I can say that it was a successful class. I was lucky that the registration for the class was low, (because it was so early in the morning I'm told) so I had eight students which was easier to teach than my typical 14 students. I had to teach Photoshop techniques to a couple of students that have only ever used Lightroom, and I had to teach some advanced Photoshop techniques to come up with the negatives we needed. I realized students were struggling with that a bit, so I made PS actions to help streamline the production from a positive image to the particulars of the negative we create.Then there were some students who would never be in a darkroom, and I had to teach them darkroom techniques. as well. At Brooklyn College, we always start our students with analog photography, but some of them came from other schools and several of them had Photo 1 during Covid, which was mostly about camera use, and some minor adjustment of images in Photoshop. I'm very pleased with the results we got.
