Big thanks to Cali for a wonderful installment in the In An Instant Residency Program. This program gives fellow creators around the globe a platform to share their unique perspectives on the craft and community of photography. Stay tuned, another great installment will be coming next month!
I’ve only done an emulsion lift once (using 4 photos though for a collage). I didn’t know you didn’t have to take the the emulsion all the way off the plastic front. That would have made it a lot easier
Hi, thank you for this video! what could be the problem if the emulsion does not peel off as well as in the video 3:20? but breaks and remains in two parts. I used color film and a new polaroid
My 9y old asked me for an instant camera. I thought about going vintage Polaroid but seams there is some catch with any camera, even new, out there. Anyone got a recommendation?
The only catch with a vintage Polaroid camera would be the higher cost of the 600 film since each film cartridge contains a battery. I have had a vintage Impulse AF for about a year and have had nothing but good luck with it. The new Polaroid cameras (Now and Now+) are more expensive than a vintage one, but you will save a bit of money in the long run by being able to purchase i-Type film instead. The newer Polaroid cameras may be more reliable since they are 30 years newer, but I think the Impulse AF is a great choice. I had a Now camera but ended up returning it because a vintage camera was a lot cheaper and I liked the ergonomics of the vintage camera better. The Impulse AF viewfinder is large, clear, and square. No double exposure mode, but it has a self timer, exposure compensation, and of course, autofocus.

Love how there is no right way to do these, thanks for sharing your process! And for sharing the meaning of your art! Amazing work
I use to have the Polaroid book that "explained" this process. Crazy.
The big mans back.
Fantastic!!! I only ever did Polaroid transfers with the old peel-apart film!!! I NEED to try this!!!
love these residency videos!!
Hey you’re the one who inspired me to buy an impulse AF :)
this is so cool! the beadwork adds so much texture
Thanks for that. I tried to get info on emulsion lifts with the new films. Heard a lit of times it’s not even possible. This is a game changer for me!
Hi, thanks for the great video! Unfortunately I'm unable to separate the film :( what can I do? Hot water didn't help

Do you have suggestions if any special kind of paper works better ?
what if the emulsion sticks to the black part in stead of the transparant?

everyone should try it!!!!
this really "lifted" my spirits! Extremely satisfying to watch
I'll have to try this with Instax...

If they don’t have a preference, fuji instax mini is a great format for beginners since it’s the most cost-effective.
Can l do it with black and white 600 film? Looks so beautiful and unique
Yes! In fact it is a bit easier with black and white to separate the emulsion from the plastic backing
I wish polaroid would bring back the write-on Polaroid film, and the polaroid party film as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this possible with 600 film? Thanks!
It is indeed!
I’m thankful photography is subjective
Haha I bought the same knife 😂
I want ben
This is really cool, does anyone know if it works for instax film?
Most people claim it's virtually impossible with Instax, but maybe with the right boiling hot water something might detach! Handle with care 😂
@@InAnInstant that’s my weekend plans sorted then 😂
