Re: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm
Not sure if anyone has posted links to a few of these sites yet. There is a lot of information to be found on using caffenol on this flickr group, and one of the central poster's blog: http://www.flickr.com/groups/33051635@N00/discuss/ http://caffenol.blogspot.com/ I've cross processed about four hundred feet of Kodak 7217, in a g3 tank, so far and the results are interesting. Here are a couple of stills: http://www.flickr.com/photos/herbt/6229970023/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/herbt/6178677875/in/photostream Herb On Fri, Jan 6, 2012 at 8:34 PM, Jim Flannery wrote: > Friday, January 6, 2012, 4:22:20 PM, one wrote: > >> If "washing soda" and "seventh generation scent-free, dye-free, laundry >> detergent" are the same thing, then yes, yes we have it in socal. > > It's not detergent.

Re: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm
Hi Christine, the process I read about was coffee, vit C, AND washing soda, I'm not opposed to using all 3 but I think washing soda may be hard to find in southern california. Basically I want to shoot the hi-con and experiment with degrading it during processing to give it some nice brakhage esque texture; bubbles, scratches, i'd like to figure out a good technique for solarizing, etc. any recommendations? also do you order your 7378 through kodak directly, if so what's your contact.

Re: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm
The suggestion to use sodium carbonate (washing soda) is a good one. It's MUCH more economical than vitamin C as an activator, blends faster with coffee and therefore produces cleaner results on your film. I've processed a great deal of film (motion and still) with caffeinol (my most recent hi-con process was using expired, 12 year old 7378 from my freezer, and it worked beautifully). If you don't object to lengthier developing times, you can substitute the coffee in your caffeinol mix with anything containing caffeic acid...such as black/green tea or red wine (wine is obviously more expensive, but it's a great thing to try at least once. Just as with coffee, the cheaper the wine, the better the developer.) -- Forwarded message -- From: Jason Halprin To: Experimental Film Discussion List Cc: Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2012 13:46:16 -0800 (PST) Subject: Re: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm?

well, the color reversal turns out b/w negative of course, that's why i meant it doesnt make sense to use it ;) the high-con was about 2 min. i think, but you can use a red safelight and see what's happening. soda -> at a chemist's Original-Nachricht > Datum: Thu, 5 Jan 2012 13:21:55 -0800 > Von: Carrie Schreck > An: Experimental Film Discussion List > Betreff: Re: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm? > REALLY? color? that's interesting will try that, do you remember your > timing for the hi-con? also where did you get the washing soda? > > On Thu, Jan 5, 2012 at 12:55 PM, Daniela Zahlner > wrote: > > > hei carrie, > > yes, this works. i tried it with high con 7363 and also b/w negative and > > color reversal (doesnt make much sense, but works as well). > > > > > > > > > > Original-Nachricht > > > Datum: Thu, 5 Jan 2012 12:05:20 -0800 > > > Von: Carrie Schreck > > > An: frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com > > > Betreff: [Frameworks] caffenol processing with 16mm? > > > > > Hi I just watched a how-to on Caffenol processing (developing black > and > > > white negatives with instant coffee and vitamin c) wondering If i can > use > > > the same process to develop black and white reversal or high-con > titling > > > film (Kodak 7363) > > > > > > Has anyone tried this?

Hi I just watched a how-to on Caffenol processing (developing black and white negatives with instant coffee and vitamin c) wondering If i can use the same process to develop black and white reversal or high-con titling film (Kodak 7363) Has anyone tried this?
