Super 8 and Eco-processing w Echo Park Film Center

Using the classic home-movie camera, participants will explore the history, application and tender sophistication of small format filmmaking. After capturing some Super 8 images on a stroll around Pacific Palisades Park, we’ll return to the Camera Obscura Arts Lab to process our film using a developer we’ll make from organic ingredients such as instant coffee, local flowers and seaweed! Stick around after for a brief screening of two Echo Park Film Center “City Symphonies.” Workshop Facilitators: Andrew Kim, Nicole Ucedo and Penelope Uribe-Abee.
