Dear Framework Community,

*How do you teach analog filmmaking as a financially accessible practice?*

As I continue to scour Ebay for analog equipment and supplies, I question *how
I can explain to others how to continue pursuing analog filmmaking after
they finish a course, workshop or online tutorial?* What if home for
someone is on a different continent with limited resources, or perhaps they
live nearby but on a limited budget?

*Does anyone have any creative ideas or experiences regarding this
matter?* Curious
to hear thoughts on how to teach 16mm and especially 35mm through
cameraless and lens-based approaches.

*The factors I'm thinking about are:*
- Equipment (splicer, tape, camera, scanner, projector, computer, digital
editing applications, analog editing equipment).
- Developing film (developer, fixer, photo flo, depending on film type).
- Acquiring film

   - I'm an educator just starting out.
   - Continuing to pursue camera and cameraless approaches with celluloid
   film, but have not taught an analog filmmaking course, (hopefully one day,
   maybe).
   - I realize that as I go further into this deep well, I question how I
   can teach others that want to continue this hobby after they finish a
   class, workshop, etc.
   - I'm in the process of experimenting with different approaches
   (natural-based developing techniques, sewing instead of taping, cameraless
   animation on recycled filmstock, etc.) but want to hear from you all. *If
   someone wants to just continue exploring this interest and aren't trying to
   send film off to a lab for developing, scanning, etc. and applying for
   large grants is an inaccessible thing, what are some DIY cheapest-of-cheap
   ways to continue doing this?*

- Bren
