Behind the Scenes! Testing filming in the darkroom

It's been a long, long, long, long while since I made one of these. Oopsie! But this one presented too good of an opportunity as I needed a lot of test footage before I committed to how I would write this.

Turns out this worked swimmingly, and although I'll have a little more work to do in the darkroom tonight, it's possible I could have this complete by Tuesday.

Behind the Scenes! Testing filming in the darkroom

I’m honestly very impressed with how much the camera was able to pick up in the dark room.

Looks great. I would maybe consider adding a little disclaimer that the footage takes place in a dark room (a darkroom) and the image will look streaky so people don’t think there’s something wrong with the video.

I guess this is Much Effort December. Makes me appreciate just how easy digital photography is, and gives me respect for the people who originally figured out this processes for analog photography and the people who did/do photo finishing for a living.

I think the footage is good!

I initially thought your camera view should be wide enough to show the entire layout on the table, but then realized that the real "money shot" is the one where we see your grinning mug magically appear in the developer tray.

Sharp and clear, yes! Go for it! The nice magic of seeing the print appear :-D

It looks quite good, really. I made a lot of B&W prints when I was in college and that's about how everything looked to my eye back then.

Thanks for a nice preview video. I really like seeing this process. The footage overall looks good.

The video footage looked tremendously clear, all things considered! Great work!
