I know LCC does

and do any of the other colleges have digital editing software?

Thanks

chelsea doesnt
csm does but apparently its really small - same for wimbledon
i reckon most have digital editing software but how advanced it is is questionable.

i think camberwell does, if i remember from the open day. It's downstairs in the older part of the building, and they have a photography studio too

Camberwell has an extensive B&W darkroom (about the same size as i'm used to anyways!! approx 15 enlargers, maybe more!) but no colour dark room, sadly - but i'm gona work around that :smile:

Camberwell also has a well equipped Mac Lab with like.. 20+ iMac's which run Photoshop CS3 at least (or so I gathered!) can't remember anything else from the open day.

Sorry I don't know for sure as I never visited/applied there - would have thought so though, the majority of places would have photoshop capabilities... I think the darkroom/processing aspect is the only thing some of the colleges lack! :smile:

I think Camberwell does have colour darkroom! When I had my interview a student gave me a tour around and she showed it to me! You can't process the colour film (have to get your negs from a lab or something) but there is a darkroom for making prints :smile:

Oh really?? I asked specifically about a colour darkroom and for some reason I remember being told there wasn't one, maybe I got confused! it would be awesome if there was a colour dark room - but i'm a little disappointed I wont be able to process my own film.. I love to cross-process colour film, i'll have to work a way around that!!

On my particular open day we were shown around by a student who wasn't a Photography student so maybe she forgot to show us, oooh.. now i'm happy :smile:

Does anyone know if we can process our own film, even though there's a lab? I love processing B&W and colour film.. it's relaxing, i'm prepared to purchase my own E6 and C41 baths if we aren't able to like but it'd be great to be able to do it on site :smile:
