This Saturday, WorthlessStudios, currently located on Knickerbocker Avenue, will hand out 100 rolls of free film to anyone who shows up as part of the final run of its “FREE FILM: NYC” project. Carlos De La Sancha, who runs the project, says he hopes the project will attract photographers who live in the neighborhood.
“I want you to show me how you, as a local photographer, live in this space,” Carlos De La Sancha told me. “What are the important spaces? How do you inhabit this neighborhood?”
Sancha will be there on Saturday to kick the project off and give away rolls from the studio’s airstream trailer-turned-darkroom that sits at 7 Knickerbocker Avenue. They’ll start handing these out at noon and plan to continue until they run out.
