This past weekend, we held the first of a new series of our artist-facing endeavors: a 16mm filmmaking workshop in Honolulu for Native Hawaiian and Indigenous artists, led by Sky Hopinka and @adam_piron
Participants were given cameras and equipment to test shoot different film stocks throughout the day with a demonstration showing the basics of camera loading, light meters, and using different lenses.
We can’t wait to see the footage from this weekend and thanks to our participants for being a part of this. Stay tuned for upcoming workshops and events this year!
Thank you @macfound for their very generous support in making our public programming efforts possible!
