For sure Polaroid should have some kind of program where you send them say 10--15 of your empty packs and they reward you with one film. Or they make a promise that , when they receive a certain amount of empty packs, say a few thousand of them, they reduce the price of film on a global scale. One can dream :)
Literally. I’ve thought about this before, they could definitely do something with the plastic and even re-use the metal leaf spring or use it as scrap to make others.
"a certain amount of empty packs, say a few thousand of them, they reduce the price of film on a global scale." Like disinfect them with UV light and then reuse them to pack films and resend them instead of manufacturing them from 0 therefore the price of production dropping? :) Yeah...we can dream...
I love this for so many different reasons! The craft, each are handmade… a lot of man power, time and energy has been put into this project. Mad respect, but also the strive to recycle what would otherwise be waste, it’s surprising that Polaroid don’t offer a recycling program. The nostalgia of collecting Pokémon cards or football sticker albums, such a clever idea with the scratch to reveal… love it!!!
For sustainability alone, I love this. The film pack plastics are so wasteful and honestly kinda put me off from shooting a ton. I'm glad you've taken the initiative to bring back the polaroid recycling program on your own. Your photos are awesomr and I know that you'll be making many more of these in the future. Congrats on this lovely endeavor and cheers to Dave for the inspiration!
I love these! I would order one, but sending a pack to the UK costs almost as much as the product itself (27$ for transport). If it would be cheaper, I would definitely order. Maybe will be lucky enough to get it if or when I will come to the US.
I love it!!! That's such an amazing idea, original and even the package looks so cool!!! Would love to buy some if the shipping to Costa Rica wouldn't be so expensive and slow 🥲
If I send you an empty packfilm cart for the automatic land camera will you send one back with wide film photos 🥺 they don't have to be packfilm, unless they're copies! I know that stuff is rare and expensive.
Chris help! (By the way polacopies are awesome) since the viewfinder is so off on the fujifilm 210 every photo I take is funky, I’ve tried not looking through the viewfinder on just taking the photos but it’s still off I’m getting discouraged, what can I do to make my wide photos turn out better?
new subscriber here! this is AWESOME. i love this idea! i have a few old polaroid carts i can send you (with more soon since i just got myself an unmodded sx-70!) but i also have a few fuji instax carts as well. do you think you'd be interested in the fuji carts as well in the future? i realize fuji isn't as "iconic" as polaroid with the shape and feel, but if you're interested in upcycling those for a future project, i'd be happy to help supply some of those as well! awesome channel!
@@JustAnotherChris lol, I am talking about the real Polaroid film, is it working on old cameras? Not interested in your gimmick to monetize, but nice video.
Well everything in the 3rd world it’s made by hand and the 1st world buy it in less than the half price that should be. Sounds sarcastic, that’s my humble opinion because I’m from the 3rd world and it’s hard to work and sell our work to survive (no cars, services, healthy food, internet, etc.). Never mind, I’m on my days.

Thank you!! And yes! That’s the idea AND you just gave me another idea for future packs!
Genius, just genius. I wonder what polaroid would think of it but let's hope you can keep doing them.
Ohhh I will be changing things up if these catch on haha

Thank you!! I know I couldn’t agree more and definitely going to continue this project!

Thank you for the support!

Shipping cost these days are killer!!! But I’m looking into ways to drop the cost of these
Same here for Germany :(
600 Polaroid film use to have party film that I loved!
I can’t say how excited I am for these! I can’t wait to get my first pack and see what I got will definitely be ordering more
Thank you for the support!!

Thank you!! Uhhh I know it sucks!
Thank you 👏
Absolutely!
Very cool concept, but my OCD will not allow me to use scratch offs ... too messy!!!
Fair enough!
@@JustAnotherChris I do love the packaging and everything about it, it's just the scratch off that gives me the douche chills!!!
I might do a series off non scratchers in the future
I am going to get some as soon as possible
Dude, love where your head is at! What an innovative idea! Just found your channel today and I can't wait to see more of your videos!
Thank you for stopping by!! Got lots more on the way!
I just got my order in! I’m looking forward to seeing that poster and checking off the photos I scratch.
Thanks for the support!
Do you think we could get a trade in program going? Like if I mail you 30 empty pack shells we get a free one back?

This is dope bro
Thank you!
super cool idea! Definitely getting one as soon as I get paid!!
Thank you for the support!!
Love it!!! You had such a great idea, it’s clever and ecological. Hope polaroid will be inspired by you 👏 hope i can grab one someday 🤩 xoxo from 🇫🇷
Thank you!! XOXO from 🇺🇸
Cool idea, will try to get one if they are still around in a few days!
Thank you!!

Thank you!
WHAAATTT WDYM YOU ONLY HAVE 15K FOLLOWERS?? i thought you had like hundreds of thousands if not million!

@@JustAnotherChris I hope so, you genuinely deserve it!

Unfortunately it will just take some practice. Have you seen my review of that camera?
this is such a damn cool idea!

Nice Corridor Digital hat
Also I’m the 420th like
Sadly I’m the 68th comment so close 😢
Great vid and idea, but, annoying background music not necessary, just sayin 🤭
I have an original polaroid from the 80es, will the current battery film work with it?
This isn’t real film. So no it won’t 😅

I guess you didn’t watch the video…shame
I clicked thinking a that was a new polaroid film clone....time wasted time....
