OPEN LAB 日光顯影工作室 開放預約

Hello friends,
I hope all of you who have joined our A.P.P. workshop are happy to discover this unique hands-on process and that you are still interested in continuing to make respectable prints.
Evan and I have been trying our best to see how we can make the workshops better and more interesting, also to make it more convenient for people to continue with the process.
We realized that for many of you, it's not as convenient to make prints at home due to unreliability of the sun, lack of contact frame, and washing the print. So, starting January we will be opening our He-Ping studio as a lab rental space for you to come and make your A.P.P. images. But for now, during the month of December, we would like to invite those of you who have joined our workshop at He-Ping studio to come and utilize our space for free and meet others with same interest to form a community. We now have 10 beautiful custom made contact frames and professional print washer.
Each of you can use 3 hours of lab time at free of charge. So if you are interested please email us to make reservations.


Available sessions are:
Dec. 5th. (Sat) 5-8 p.m.
Dec. 6th. (Sun) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
Dec. 12th. (Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
Dec. 13th. (Sun) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
Dec. 19th. (Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
Dec. 26th. (Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.


Evan or I will be there to help you make better prints.
Hope to see all of you soon.

親愛的朋友們:
希望所有曾經來參加日光顯影的朋友們,都能因挖掘到這美麗且獨特的手工沖印技術而感到開心,並且對日光顯影依舊保持著濃厚的興趣,持續的創作出美好的影像。
我們總是盡最大的能力,讓工作坊更豐富、更有趣,同時盡可能提供我們所知,努力讓未嘗試過日光顯影的人,也能輕易跨越入門的門檻。但是我們知道,當在家想要沖印影像時,總是會遇上總總不便的因素:陽光的出現是如此不可預測、找不到更緊密的顯影框,亦或是洗相上的不便...等等,導致創作受到侷限。



於是,我們決定從明年一月開始,開放工作室的空間給大家租用,來沖印日光顯影影像。
空間租用費用參考:
前2小時:$300

2小時後以每30分鐘計價:$50




而在正式開放租借之前,我們則計畫先在12月份,邀請曾經來和平東路工作室參加日光顯影課程的同學,來免費使用這個空間!另一方面,大家更可以藉此機會認識其他有相同興趣的人,進而相互交流與分享。



我們提供日光顯影上所需的專業器材、空間及諮詢服務。惟獨耗材部份:紙張及顯影劑,需要自行準備。你們可以攜帶任何想要試驗的紙張和媒材,以及自行調配的顯影劑,就像來玩一場影像實驗!如果無暇調配藥水,工作室也有販售已經調配好的氰版攝影新配方和舊配方,有需要的人請務必提前mail告知,好讓我們事先準備。



紙張方面,我們擁有的數量不多,如果需要大量的紙張,建議到師大的八大美術社購買(Arches 熱壓185g 一張是$90)。



現場有的所有器具,你們都可以使用!目前工作室裡有10個剛拿到的手工訂製顯影專用框,(不得不提,這是老木工師傅用上好的木頭加上細緻的手工,花費時間精力完成的),以及專業的洗相槽、筆刷、燈箱、吹風機、自動烘乾機,大型的洗相水槽也將於近日進駐至工作室。
時間上,每個人有3小時的時間可以使用,以下是工作室開放的時間和日期:



12/5(Sat) 5-8 p.m.
12/6(Sun) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
12/12(Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
12/13 (Sun) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
12/19 (Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.
12/26 (Sat) 1-4p.m. or 4-7 p.m.


有興趣的朋友請先e-mail報名,以便我們安排人數及時間。同時,SYKO跟EVAN會在現場提供簡單的諮詢,幫助你們洗出好影像!
報名e-mail:porquebase@gmail.com
期待見到你們!


p.s:
關於新、舊配方顯影劑的差別:舊配方自行調配比較容易,但是顯影的時間較長,例如:在我們燈箱的曝光時間會是20~30分鐘。如果是新配方的話,只需10~12分鐘。(以一般的黑白底片為基準)還有,如果打算自行帶顯影劑來的人,也請先自行調配完成後帶來。
