AIM HIGH

Working as Clapper Loader on a short film AIM HIGH this week shooting on ALEXA. This is a little shot Gaffer Damien Seagar took just before the heavens opened up.

Port Kembla

Here are a few shots I have played around with in Lightroom.

Film

So I got to play around with an Aaton 35-3 the other day and got to thinking why is digital being pushed so much in the film and photography industry. I am aware of the cost of shooting film, but what ever happened to quality over quantity. I work in a rental house and this is the second time someone had rented out one of our film cameras in the one and a half years I have worked there.

I made a decision I will shoot a short film or music video on film one day and really try to preserve film and it's great quality.

Process, Proof and Scan

I have just recently finished the Process, Proof and Scan course at the ACP. This has been my first experience with processing my own film and have learnt a lot in a short space of time. My tutor Michael was awesome and always willing to pass on his knowledge even when I would bump into him outside of class time. I would strongly recommend applying for this course if you are interested in film photography.

Here are three shots that I am pretty happy with. All are Tri-X 400 processed in Rodinal 1:50.
