The Griffin Museum, in collaboration with Jill Enfield, is excited to present this online workshop, which introduces a process for creating digital negatives.
To make successful Platinum/Palladium prints, you need a negative that matches the size and tonal range of your final image. Unless you are working with a large-format camera, this means learning how to create precise, calibrated digital negatives, often the most challenging step in the process. In this live virtual workshop, Jill will guide you through the complete workflow for creating digital negatives for Platinum/Palladium
In this workshop, you will be guided through the conception, creation, and completion of your photobook (via a print-on-demand (POD) self-publishing platform.) You will also receive information on other options for publishing your book.
In preparing for this course, you will determine the subject of your photobook and identify some of the images you expect to include and possible text.
To begin, we will examine a book's structure and see examples of classic and contemporary photobooks. Through presentations, discussions, critiques, and assignments, you will work to refine your idea

At this time of year, we often think about the creepy creatures of the animal world, including many that are active at night. Learn about some of the amazing talents of these creepy animal friends and what you can do to help them help us! How do you hiss without using your mouth? Eat by using a built-in straw? From animals that look creepy like spiders and bats, to those that just sound creepy, many of these creatures are important predators that help us unseen under the cover of darkness.
