Well, on the 29th of May, I joint the intensive course held by The Gate Darkroom, what did I do on that day? Because as a volunteer who is working for The Gate Darkroom, my job is more like a back-end job. For example, mix with stopper and fixer, deal with the unused chemical elements, teach students how to use the enlarger machine, and so on.
So here is the list of what I did on the 29th of May,
Put the film in the black bags, and use tools to open the film container after that, but the film into the tank, and prepare for the development.
Help students mixed with fixer and developer.
Clean the container which used to hold the fixer and developer.
Show students how to use enlarger.
Prepare for the chemical elements.
Cut papers.
Put the paper into the tank and wash it.
Help students detective the best exposure time.
In conclusion, I did lots of jobs there, and I think it is useful, all those things can be added to my CV, and during the same time, when I working in those times, it is also a good time for me to know new friends, I am looking forward to having another work day in the Gare Darkroom.
