That's amaze me, I doing prints using contemporary technology, but on the end of that my printing machine using UV as well !!. Really nothing to changed....
A lot of time and expense on a poorly rendered image. Come on guys be a little more creative. The depiction of the process is fine but the image is terrible. Why did you waste so much time and effort.
Because its interesting to use different techniques to just using film.
And this image isnt poorly rendered, it looks amazing. And if you don't like poorly rendered photographs, i would look at Edward Steichen, who currently holds the record (i think?) for photograph sold, $4.6m, and looks by your standards as crap.
It may appear "poorly rendered" to you because we've become so used to the high contrast images of straight photography -- deep blacks and bright whites. The pictorialists kept tonal values in the middle, and avoided the extremes. It's just a different way of rendering an image.
This is an excellent video, clearly showing the process. It could be improved by English subtitles explaining what materials are being used. There is not much information available about collotypes. Any addition would be appreciated.
