Does anyone know where i can get Agfa ST8 or equivalents (for optical sound) in the UK? Cheers

hi stevn, It looks like she is doing it with photograms onto photographic paper, then she is filming them onto 16mm by means of an optical printer - allowing her to use fades, create movement etc. Im doing photograms directly onto 16mm, placing objects like lace accross the film then exposing. This creates patterns accross the frames - creating a fast changing image rather than giving each photogram time as she does. For best advice on doing photograms on photographic paper google it and there are quite a few sites that can tell you more than i can. Its mainly about experimenting till it looks right. Hope that helps

Hi, Im trying to make 16mm photograms (not stills), at the moment i am using Agtha STA (with ISO\ASA of 80) negative film, Ive found exposing for 2-3 seconds works well. Ive been using paper developer instead of film developer, what sort of difference will this make - i am new to home developing. The images come out pretty well. But appear a little purple, (someone said i should leave the film in the fixer\stop bath longer. Also, it seems like after a point of time in the developer it stops darkening the image. Can i leave the film in there indefinitely. Any advice? Cheers! :)
