Darkroom work

in the darkroom I turned my film into images using the enlarger. you first take the negative holding tray out of the enlarger then take it out of the darkroom and find the part of the film you want to dewlap and make sure it is clean before putting it into the enlarger you then turn the enlarger on and make sure that it is focused and fills the frame. cut a test piece and find out if the exposure, focus and size are correct then take a whole piece of the paper and run the machine then put it though the developer which make the image visible and able to leave the darkroom.

Technical skills Creating texture using dry and wet media. In the first lesson we used wet and dry media to create a collection of textured marks such as layered lines and scribbles. We then split a A3 into 10 different sized areas. Which we filled with different textured marks. The dry media was stuff like pencils, pens, graphite, and charcoal. The wet media was paints both white and black.
