Thank you Jim :) I was so confused about the steps involved in Carbon prints. But aftr watching your video am all grinning with happiness!!!!! Thank u so much. I wish i could come for your exhibition... but we live in different countries :)
LOL Happy 2020! After a two decade hiatus from "traditional" printing I am happily re embracing it. Although I've developed countless negatives and prints over my 30+ years of professional photography, I have never had the privilege of carbon printing and for the first time in a very, very long time I am excited to "discover" it. I will be referencing your tutorial this year. Thank you from 6 years in the future!
@@marhoudibtissam2399 I use fixed out photo paper for a lot of my work. For my coating on watercolor paper I use Liquitex Matte Medium to coat the paper diluted one to one. Generally 3 coats or 4 depending on the paper used.
I have some ideas for a follow up video in the future. We will be moving to a new location the first of 2016 and I'll be setting up my first real darkroom in our new home. I'll expand on some of the steps. So thanks everyone and stay tuned.
All of my images are shot on large and ultra large format film. I develop the negatives in a Pyro developer and expose my shadows for detail and control my highlights in development. I can print negatives with over 12 zones.
Paul, thanks for the question. Sorry for the late answer. If I was to do a test strip I'd do a three piece test strip so I could see more of the image. You need to determine the sensitizer strength first because the exposure would tell you about your blacks. Minimum exposure for maximum black. The sensitizer controls contrast. I never do test strips, I always print the entire negative at my best guess. My notes that I've kept over the years usually get me there first try.

Hello Jim! What do you use to coat your final support? Thank you!

The video was excellent and after seeing the prints at your opening show in Ventura I'm totally inspired.
Great video, and very interesting process.
Great video. An excellent, concise overview of the process.
I have been looking into trying the carbon process, thanks so much for the great video
Good stuff. Hope to see more videos from you
Really nice video Jim! Thank you for the tutorial.
Great process Jim, thanks to introduce it so easy, do you think can be used a common acetate sheet as support for the tissue?
Regards.

Thanks Jim , really like this print technique , will try it in my lab =)
Thanks, everyone. Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Jim, wonderful video. I just wanted to ask you a question. How did you make the negative? What do we have to consider while making one? Thank you

very nice video jim!
Hello Jim. Excelent video. I have a question. It is possible to make a carbon print using the sun light???? Thanks.
Yes you can. It needs UV and the sun has plenty.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Now you need to print and you will learn.
Hi what's the best way for doing test strips for carbon transfer printing thanks

@@carbonjimfitzgerald Hi thanks for the info .
I'm getting closer to this all the time. Darkroom is ready. 14x17 coming up. Thanks for the great video!
I work for the company that made that Metal Helide exposure unit.
Which company is that? I want to buy a unit.
NuArc was purchased by M&R Printing Equipment. Give them a call. cool company with top notch customer care and product.
Thank you Kris.
