How can the art of analogue film photography serve as a powerful conservation tool, revealing the intricate interplay between plants and animals within vulnerable ecosystems?

Sally S 🇬🇧 and Charlie F 🇦🇺🇻🇳 provide a succinct walkthrough of their photography and conservation module. By mirroring species extinction with the slow death of analog film, they capture a portrait of their module's progression throughout the term from an educational session at the Melbourne Zoo to using pinhole cameras to a crash course in Adobe Photoshop. They are ultimately joined by other students in the module who share their final designs screen printed on T-shirts for wider conservation awareness.
