The FILM IS NOT DEAD started in Mar 2008 in Laie HI. It spanned the globe covering 5 continents with almost 800 attendees by the time it ended in person in 2015 in Perth, Austrailia. It then became FIND in a BOX where another 700 attendees could attend and learn from the comfort of their own home/bed/couch.

FILM IS NOT DEAD aka "FIND" is back and in it's best form and including an aspect that was missing, having it at theFINDlab. 3 full days of shooting film and getting a chance to get your hands wet by developing and scanning your own shot film at theFINDlab.

Over the 3 days we will cover all things film discussing: film stocks & their best applications, exposures & how to get the most out of your chosen film stock, what to avoid in terms of lighting/color/pushability/long-exposures/reciprocity, cameras & finding what works best for your vision (attendees will have access to all the cameras at theFINDlab), how to develop & push color film, how to scan said film along with an in depth look under the hood of Fuji Frontier SP3000's & Noritsu HS1800's with our scanning techs. We will extensively cover film & flash & how to shoot in any lighting situation regardless of time of day or lack of epic locations. Above & beyond film we will also discuss the business of shooting film, posing & how to utilize your own personality to create images that amplify YOUR voice, the power of personal projects, pajama profits & how your online proofing site is hindering you from receiving thousands in online print orders. Each day we will go on an excursion to shoot & you will have the opportunity to develop & scan your shot film at theFINDlab.

This 3 day workshop will take place at theFINDlab in Provo, UT.  All transportation, morning coffee/lunch/snacks during the 3 days is included. The workshop starts at 9am each day & technically ends at 5pm but can go much later depending on your enthusiasm & energy. Each attendee will receive all portraits taken by Jonathan Canlas after the workshop.  Each time slot below represents 1/12 spots available for the workshop.
