“Wildflowers” shot by our lovely timer and printer Osheen Keshishian. How’d he create the effects in this film? Read below!
.
.
.
Osheen shot this film on Kodak internegative stock (3272) which gives the film its unique color. Because this film has an extremely low ASA, Osheen was able to completely open his 25mm lens to f/ .95 and create the shallow depth of field. Lastly, Osheen shot this at 64 fps, but had it scanned at 24 fps which enabled him to shoot the film with an open aperture and gave the film a fluid look. Experimenting with different stocks and camera techniques Is a great way to interact with your subject! Happy shooting :)

Fun film fact Friday: Earlier this year, we celebrated 16mm’s 100th birthday!

Hi all, this is Clare, a film prep technician at Colorlab, here with our first film fact Friday. Just over 100 years ago in 1923, Kodak introduced 16mm film. We wanted to take today to recognize all of the beautiful home movies made possible by 16mm.

Clip 1: From “Bobby’s First Year” (1929). My great grandpa shot this B&W reversal footage of my grandpa and his cousins the year he was born.

Clip 2: Nearly 94 years later in 2023, I shot this footage on 16mm color negative in my grandpa’s backyard. He’s all grown up now with 3 kids, 7 grandkids and 1 great grandchild.

#16mm has allowed my family to capture 7 generations in family home movies. How cool is that!!
