PAUL DALY



Using the fragility and impermanence of 16mm film, I have documented social history throughout England during a decade of great divide and unrest, encompassing the breadth of this country's society and diverse culture.

Further works explore mortality, masculinity, solitude, and ritual, referencing and dissecting my upbringing.

In 2022, my film Mirrors, supported by BFI Doc Society, premiered in the International Short Competition at Sheffield DocFest and was later longlisted for BIFA Best Short Film.

My next film, Shadows, is now in production and examines class structure, identity, and the balance of power in England.

YOU’VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE





My workshop will cover the following:

+ Loading and unloading the Bolex H16 camera

+ Technical specifications of the camera such as frame rates, variable shutter, and their effect on the image

+ Film emulsions and their differences

+ Lenses
+ How to use a light meter

+ Post-production workflow, such as how to fill out a Kodak Spec Sheet correctly, dailies vs. DPX, etc.

+ Useful tips in the field
+ Safe practice


This is a technical, practical, and creative course. As each student will come to the course with an idea of how to use the format, they will be given bespoke tutoring for their specific needs towards realising their project.

This course is designed for undergraduates and above, 1-6 students, and can run between 1-2 hours.

By the end of the course, each student will be capable of safely and correctly operating the Bolex H16 cine camera, leaving with a PDF outlining the course details.
