Aaton LTR

Info

In this workshop, you will study the basic operations of the Aaton LTR, loading coaxial 400ft mags, exposure suggestions, and instructions for using this camera setup in team collaboration. Each participant will be able to shoot 100ft of film with their peers, alongside demonstrations of using a clapperboard. This workshop will encourage skills in larger format film cameras as the knowledge can be applied to multiple 16mm cameras.

You will have a hands-on opportunity to learn the technical aspects of this camera. The Aaton LTR is a 16mm camera that can be adapted to super 16mm. It is great for on-set sound recording due to its quiet nature.

This is an intermediate workshop; some basic knowledge of celluloid and 16mm formats will benefit participation. We will shoot a 400ft roll of Kodak Tri-X Black & White Reversal film on location, working as a small crew to experience the use of the camera in the field.

Attending this workshop enables you to hire the Aaton LTR camera from our lab as part of our requirement of "previous experience".

The workshop fee includes the cost of 100ft of film stock and the cost of development and digitisation, which will be sent back to you after it has been processed. Workshop prices also include the cost of a community n/n membership (£15 annually), which gives access to our workshops, equipment hire, studio hire (by appointment) and a reference library of books on analogue filmmaking. Existing community n/n members should use their discount code at checkout. Concessions are available; see our website for details.
