As a project, we were assigned to start with film processing. After a lesson of learning the mechanics of the film cameras given to us we moved onto learning about how the process actually works and how to effectively do it without ruining the film roll which is a common mistake.
Film must be inserted into a dedicated film camera, which was weird to use at fist, as it has to be manually modified and configured.
Once done the film must be removed without seeing light. This is an important notice, the slightest fraction of light can impact the outcome, the film having to be placed into a sealed container and bag while being developed completely in the dark. It was hard to do this but we were given time to practice with tape that had already been ruined, before using the photos we took earlier in the week.
