Film Love

Last Friday, we shot our weekly football game using FILM!!! We used 35mm cameras and Kodak T-Max P3200 film. It was a great experience (I miss using film), but nowhere near as great as seeing the results after we processed our rolls today. We processed the film, printed in the darkroom (with snow flake-sized chunks of grain on our prints) and captioned our top 3 peak action shots starting at 9:00am, with a 1:00pm deadline. It was tedious around 12:30 when we were all trying to shove our negatives into sleeves and get everything turned in on time, but we made it out alive. I was reminded how much I missed the smell of fixer on my hands. 

Photojournalism student, Alyssa Murkin, uses a hole puncher to indicate which frame she wants to print for the assignment.

POD: Day 67


This is a fun shot of one of Alyssa's frames through the loupe. It turned out almost as grainy as our photos:
