Re: How to destroy/discard 35mm film negatives? If you are that determined to trash your films a big bucket, some hot water and big bottle of full strength bleach should do it

If you have a bunch of them sitting around, feel free to place them in the recycling bin along with newspaper, junk mail, cardboard egg cartons and other types of paper. Just make sure you take the negatives and everything else out of them first. Are photo negatives from photos (why keep them)Yes, you should keep them if you would like better scans them at very high dpi in order produce a good image, even when you are printing large size. How do you dispose old film? You can just throw colour film, black and white film in your trash bin at home .Once the film has been processed there really isn't that much toxic materials on your film B/W and colour film does contain small amounts of silver in the material after its been processed but the amount is too little to worry about.

General Film Souping Tip

  1. You can soup the film before or after you shoot the roll through your camera. There doesn't seem to be any visible difference in the effects.

  2. Soup for a full 24 hours.

  3. Use freshly boiled water.

  4. Leave.

  5. Develop at home if possible.

  6. Don't bother trying to soup in the developing tank.

what happen if film gets wet? When a film becomes wet and then dries completely, there are two levels of damage that may occur .It may also tear from the film base, so that chunks of emulsion will be removed and stuck to the adjacent film layer. Or the whole film will tear. Any attempt to unwind a blocked film will result in damage to the film.

Negatives are normally used to make positive prints on photographic paper by projecting the negative onto the paper with a photographic enlarger or making a contact print. The paper is also darkened in proportion to its exposure to light, so a second reversal results which restores light and dark to their normal order.

Techniques he used it

The driving force behind the magazine was Takuma Nakahira, a young magazine editor and poet turned photographer who had been mentored by . Provoke had an agenda: To refute stereo-typical narrative and examine the relationship . The rough graininess of the images came from printing techniques, while the blurry,

This is both an old and a new problem,” writes Takuma Nakahira, in the afterword to ... that was used to cover the second issue, are all identical to the materials used 50 years ago. ... “It was not just a technique,” says Kotaro Iizawa, a Japanese art historian, during his talk, Decoding Provoke, at Hong Kong .
