2013-07-02 Thread Kate Ewald
Hi, I'm currently experimenting with applying cyanotype chemicals to clear 16mm leader and already processed 16mm, then running this through my Bolex to expose the portions I've painted the chemicals onto. I'm still deciding whether or not to hand-process afterward. Does anyone have any experien

I use a similar but slightly different approach and generally get really solid results that work for me - I do both contact printing with found footage and/or my own footage, as well as contact printing with plant material and other light block mediums etc. I have tried the bucket method for coatin
