Dubblefilm Pacific. Bolsey Film 10.

Thoughts On Film.

Dubblefilm is a film company based in Spain and was set up in 2017. They produce 35mm film that is inspired by popular mobile apps, filters and effects which they have applying to film.

The Pacific film adds tones of green and blue hues to the images. However depending on shooting conditions results will vary. The film comes as 36 exposure and in 24 exposure.

I Brought my roll from the Photographers Gallery in London at the end of 2019 and it sat in my fridge until November 2020 when I used it in my Bolsey Jubillee camera and was set at 200 ISO.

It was shot over the cause of three days, so the conditions were different through out the use of the film.

I found that the film gave the images a warm yellow, orange to red tones on most of them, (images 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.) some of them that were shot in brighter light lost the strong tones and seamed as though they had been short with a Kodak Gold film.(images 7, 8.)

The effect gives a very old vintage look, the sought of effect you get when you shot and process an out of date film that has been stored in an controlled environment.

On some of the photos I done auto colour on them, which took away the orange. yellow tones and gave the images a green tone making them quite cold. It also makes the reds stand out more (images 3A and 9), as well as giving the illusion of bring the image more into foucs, giving it more depth.

It also throughs of the white balence a little making the white areas a blue, green tone. (image 9 ).

This is a strange film, and I not a huge fan. A lot of the photos I have seen on line for his film always seam a lot more less saturated with the yellow, orange and red tones, weather the image is taken i low light or bright light.

I was not completely sure what I was expecting with this film as it dose fall in the group of experimental film in my mind. And its not a film that I will try again unfortunately.

Holga Film 004: Through Windows.

I wanted to see how much of a difference the two settings on the Holga Camera gave. Using a 3200asa film you don't get that much of a difference. Or at least I didn't seam to.

Bolsey Jubillee Film 005: Empty Chairs.

I was trying to capture some strong shadows with these two. the first one sought of worked the second one not so much. I like the shadows that the wicker chair is casting on to the wall from the arm of the chair. wish I had noticed this more before taking the shot, as I wound have played with the position of the chair.

I did turn both of these photos in to black and white images - they are at the bottom for the post, hoping that it would make me like them more, but there is still something note wright.

(At some point I will have to download Photoshop or light room so I can edit photos better.)

Both of these photos were taken on the Sunday 22nd of March 2020, the before the country was placed in lockdown due to Covid-19.
