In this film, Jeff Wall discusses his Vancouver studio and how this has influenced and changed his work. Wall talks about how, in the 70s and 80s, he used commercial labs – albeit unsatisfactorily – to develop his films, and the logical progression from this to the creation his own laboratory within the studio. Jeff Wall discusses the techniques of his photography and his desire to make his pictures seem like 'eyesight', rather than something that is better or altered from what we see. He also talks about digital printing methods, as opposed to chemical printing, and how this has changed his work.
