Make Stuff is a series of fun and unique creative digital activities for all ages from the digital rookie to the tech savvy.
Thu, 30 May 2024 at 10:00am
Part of our half-term events for mini-makers
Lights, cameras, action! Discover the magic of long exposure photography and ‘paint’ fantastical shapes and figures by capturing the movement of light sources in a dark environment. Led by photographer and artist Ciara Leeming, you’ll learn how a camera works and create stunning light effects using different materials. Explore different roles as the director, camera operator and light artist! This hands-on experience is perfect for beginners.
Who’s this for?
Sign up for one of two sessions on Thursday 30, May:
Each light station will be shared between four people: so do feel free to come as a group of two (or four!)
What do you need to bring?
Just you! We’ll provide all the equipment you need.
Cost
This event is free to attend. We charge a £2 booking fee, which is refunded on attending the event.
