Advance Course

This course is for those who have a good knowledge of the darkroom. You will learn the Zone System for Processing Film, advance split grading printing, printing on fibre based paper and toning prints. This course will enable students to create an archival toned fine art black and white print.

The Zone System is a method of getting the most out of film-based photography. It’s a methodology that helps you pre-visualise the exact outcome for each image from the camera through to darkroom print. By determining the exact exposure requirements for each tonal element for in each scene you shoot, you can be guaranteed to produce an accurate reproduction every time. By helping the photographer to ‘read’ the properties of a negative, this method helps you adjust your film processing for perfect results.
