This week marks the start of a brand new tutorial covering an image that wasn't exposed well. We use Lightroom and LightZone to turn it into an image fit for the wall.

PW67 - Product review and pinhole camera shots
1 Apr 2008 @ 08:06 am

This week we take a pit-stop between tutorials to take a look at the Plustek OpticFilm 7300 scanner. And we also use that to scan the film from my first shoot using the hand-built cardboard pinhole camera I made a few weeks back. I'll talk about what I learned from using a pinhole camera and you can see all the shots I took including some time-lapse movies of a couple that I post processed.

Video - building my own pinhole camera
6 Mar 2008 @ 08:39 am

I'm working on switching my video making process from PC to Mac. As an exercise I produced a short video that I thought you folks might enjoy. It's me building a cardboard pinhole camera. I've already taken my first roll of pictures with it. If there's anything usable I'll show them. The idea for the “sped-up making stuff” video ripped off from my good friend Matt.
