thanks everyone. the help is greatly appreciated. 'A faster negaive stock would probably give you a more emphatic result as there is more silver in the emulsion - but it would be grainier' what about vision2 expression? 500T? any ideas on stocks? thanks.

i just read a post by David Mullen about desaturation in which he mentioned optical printing and Tarkovsky's last film, The Sacrifice. I would like to achieve this same aesthetic for my film. once again, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

hi, i am a film student at new york university, currently reaching the end of pre-production for my final thrid year experimental film workshop project. for my film this semester i am shooting on 16mm over the first few weeks of november. the majority of my locations are exteriors, and i want an image rich in contrast, where as much color as possible has been removed. The point being to make the color film as similar to black/white as possible. sadly enough nyu hasn't given many suggestions about different film stocks/processing over the past few years, and i consider myself somewhat of a beginner on the topic . anyone have any ideas? any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you very much, ian hassett
