Must Pre-Register (Call 403-261-5767) FREE!
Did you know that Quickdraw houses the camera stand that Cordell Barker made The Cat Came Back on? Now you too can learn the basics of our Oxberry Camera Stands – much like what would have been used to shoot classic cel-animation Disney films. The Oxberry can be used to shoot complex movements, zooms, pans, special effects, and multi-pane shots. Learn to load and unload film, table and camera movements, and exposures. As a group, you will shoot a short animation on 16mm film, and learn techniques for hand processing film in Quickdraw’s dark room.
