HI, Sorry, film Bee is the name of our collective in Newcastle Upon Tyne.
We have a little lab, with a black and white processing machine we've only
just begun
to get used to. So that we don't have to leave the wet side in the dark
while it chews things up and to save money we've been putting Agfa's ST8D
sound recording stock.
We are housed in a cinema The Star and Shadow Cinema the cinema prints it's
brochures at a printing coop which gave us a little developer (All it says
on the
bottle is "European Graphics, developer and replenisher concentrate") as an
experiment
Mix it about 5 or 6 of water to 1 of chemical and it makes a nice, if
extreme, negative. You
still have to rate the film at about 5asa. Experiments are ongoing so I'm
still a bit vague,
Does that make any sense?
cheers
Mat
