All levels welcome COST £165 LOCATION Mermaid Court, ​click here​ ​for a map Daily breakdown Days Topic/skills covered Preparing the chemistry. Coating paper with the photosensitive solution. Sat Making photograms using UV from the atmosphere. Colour tinting prints. Preparing digital negatives on a computer. Making contact prints using an Sun industrial UV exposure machine. The Cyanotype​ method is an incredibly versatile, simple and fun process to learn. The Cyanotype was invented by Sir John Henry Herschel in1841. This early photographic process produces distinctive and striking Prussian blue images which can also be toned in various other colours. Simple and economic, it remained in use well into the twentieth century as a means of reproducing architectural and engineering drawings as Blueprints. In more recent times, the Cyanotype has been rediscovered by contemporary artists. Also sometimes known as sun printing, the Cyanophyte process is one you can easily learn to do in a weekend. It offers a perfect introduction to alternative and traditional photographic processes and to the use of computers to produce photographic negatives for such processes. The course takes place in the Print Studio and also utilises the Digital Suite at the Art Academy. Both facilities offer a much wider programme of evening, weekend and daytime courses throughout the year. Please refer to our website for full terms and conditions: Mermaid Court, 165A Borough High Street, London SE1 1HR www.artacademy.org.uk/terms-conditions/ 020 7701 2880 The cyanotype process is simple, non-toxic and can be adapted and incorporated into a range of other printmaking techniques such as photo-etching and mono-printing.

  • Steinhart Runaway Hollywood Chapter3
    Chapter 3 Lumière, Camera, Azione! the personnel and practices of hollywood’s mode of international production as hollywood filmmakers gained more experience abroad over the years, they devised various production strategies that could be shared with one another. A case in point: in May 1961, Vincente Minnelli was preparing the production of Two Weeks in Another Town (1962), part of which he planned to shoot in Rome. Hollywood flmmaker Jean Negulesco communicated with Minnelli, ofering some advice on work- ing in Italy, where Negulesco had directed portions of Tree Coins in the Fountain (1954) and Boy on a Dolphin (1957) and at the time was producing his next flm, Jessica (1962): I would say that the most difcult and the most important condition of mak- ing a picture in Italy is to adapt yourself to their spirit, to their way of life, to their way of working. A small example: Tis happened to me on location. As I arrive on the set and everything is ready to be done at 9 o’clock—the people are having cofee. Now, your assistant also is having cofee—and if you are foolish enough to start to shout and saying you want to work, right away you’ll have an unhappy crew and not the cooperation needed for the picture. But if you have cofee with them, they will work for you with no time limit or no extra expense.1 Negulesco’s letter underscores a key lesson that Hollywood moviemakers learned overseas when confronted with diferent working hours, production practices, and cultural customs.

  • Cyanotype Faqs
    Cyanotype FAQs FAQs What is cyanotype? Cyanotype is an antique photographic printing process distinctive for producing Prussian blue monochromatic prints. Developed in the mid-19th century, cyanotype was quickly embraced as an inexpensive method for reproducing photo- graphs, documents, maps and plans (hence the enduring architectural term “blueprint”). Famously, it was also used by Anna Atkins and other field biologists for indexing plant specimens—the first photograms ever made! Cyanotype is an extremely forgiving photographic process, easy to do, safe and inexpensive. As one of the earliest photographic pro- cesses ever developed, it is still favored among alternative process enthusiasts and is often the first chemistry explored in alternative photo classes. Is it permanent? Yes, cyanotype prints are archival. However, yellowing may occur if prints are exposed to phosphates or alkaline environ- ments so, cyanotype fabrics must be laundered in cold water using non-phosphate detergents. Over-washing may also cause the print to fade. Use care while handling cyanotype prints, as sweat and hand oils may also cause discoloration. If fading occurs over time, washing the print in a dilute bath of hydrogen peroxide can usually restore it to its original intensity. Is Jacquard’s Pretreated Cyanotype Fabric sided? Prints can be made on either side of Jacquard’s Pretreated Cyanotype Fabrics. However, being a cotton sateen, the sides are different. One side of the fabric is slightly reflective and shiny. This is the print side. Look closely at the fabric to determine which side is the print side. Can I make cyanotype prints on paper and fabric? How about wood? Yes, any natural surface can be treated with the cyanotype sensitizer, including silk, cotton, wool, hemp, linen, canvas, paper, leather and wood.
