Digitization and Film Collage Poster

Here is the first in a series of posters we are developing for each of the upcoming NACM workshops for the summer of 2015. This first weekend course will focus on digitizing old home movies, videos, slides, and other formats of "analog" photography and then incorporating these into your own original videos and time-based narratives.

Also just wanted to let all my artist friends know that this is A GREAT DEAL and that they should sign up for some of these amazing workshops TODAY, because the spots are going fast! I'm really excited about Reno's course of digital photography and Anthony's workshop on analog photography and the darkroom!
