wait so do u HAVE to cut the leader off before u reel it on? because i never do and the negatives always get stuck halfway through the reeling...
-
really interesting!
-
Great vid! Would like to see u load the steel reels tho too.
-
How sensitive is the undeveloped negative to fingerprints and such?
-
Overall not a bad video but this method involves way too much handling of the film .... also if you nip the corners off the film after you cut the leader off, it makes threading it onto the reel easier...

I'm still new to all this but developing 35mm film for motion pictures is exactly the same process, correct?

Thankyou sooooo much!! Our teacher taught us how to do it for the AS photography but he just told us the procedure and when we went to the darkroom, we had to clue whatsoever how to do it! This vid has helped!! :D

That is true, what the instructor says do not touch the film or the negative of the same finger, and we could have problems when developing. Now I do not understand well is how to perform this process within the black bag that simulates the photographic darkroom.

In another video here, the instructor says to not touch the film. You got your hands and fingers and thumbs all over it will ruin the film once its developed. Don't touch your film.
great series of videos.

any chance of showing us how to set up a small low-budget darkroom at home, in bathroom maybe?

Excellent video! The only thing I would suggest is that it's better to just leave the film on the cartridge spool as you wind it onto the developing reel. That way there's less chance of it getting tangled and scratched. I only cut it off the spool when I have it almost completely on the reel.
