Film processing

July 25, 2010

The Film processing tanks and the different chemicals steps to bring out and stabilize the latent image made by light striking the film during exposure in the camera. The photographic paper and how light transmitted by the exposed and developed film forms a latent image on the paper which is then brought out and stabilized by chemicals. The enlargers machines for projecting light through negatives onto photographic paper, allowing control of image size and cropping to improve composition. To make a proof sheet and let each student makes one. Have some negatives on hand, with a good proof sheet for quality comparison.
