  • How to shoot good double exposure portraits and street shots on your film camera. In this video I'll share everything I've learned so far about shooting double exposures on 35mm film SLRs.
    For the record, I mostly shot Portra and Lomo in this video.

    When my dad was a kid, his school taught the class how to develop photos. They did it in groups. They had a set amount that they were allowed develop onto the photopaper. However, one lad in my dad's group started developing one more photo than they were allowed. This would've been a photo of himself.
    When they realised this was too many, he stopped early and pretended the paper hadn't been used.
    Another group in the class came in and used that same paper. They were horrified when the finished picture turned out with a partially visible, ghost like face in it, that they didn't realise was their classmate 😂

    I have been doing digital photography for the last several years. I have also like the mechanics/engineering of Analogue cameras, and over the past 2 years started a small collection. This has now pulled me into the world of film, and I more of a film shooter artistically now, and my digital is more for videography or blogging/run and gun photos.

      after ai takes over, physical mm film photography will be our last hope at true, genuine authentic realistic photos. please make a video about how to detect film tampering like how to tell if a roll or a film has been tampered with, like scratched, chemically altered or double exposed please.

    The Petri/Yashica cameras can also perform the Double Exposures as well.
    or any old 35mm cameras has the mechanical button to stop the winding for new exposure.

    Nice intro into double exp. Double exposure has a few different applications. It can juxtapose different subjects in a spontaneous, overlapping way that is sometimes successful, sometimes not. For us commercial guys and gals, double exposure was a bit more planned. The best double exposure photogs I ever saw were Rick Walstrom and Charly Franklin. Rick worked in 4x5 and 8x10 Ektachrome with a Sinar Norma, and Charly worked in 35mm Kodachrome with a pin registered Nikon. Regardless, in either fine art or commercial art, dark areas in your scene can be advantageous for double exposure if you're looking for relative clarity between two images.

    I also have a Pentax MX, i absolutely love this camera and I’m waiting on my double exposures to be returned from the lab now - i love the delayed gratification as well, i basically get to imagine that I’m an artist and that my shots worked. I think its somewhat helped calm me down as i feel like I’ve never found my perfect artistic outlet, but with this I’m very content

      I had an a1 for like a week but it had a problem where the battery would drain in a day. That's actually the reason I have a pentax mx now, I took the a1 back to the shop and the owner let me pick an alternative camera to trade in the a1. Had the a1 actually worked it seemed like a great cam as well.

    Thanks making the video about this! Also the Louis Dazy interview was a great read. Feel a little more confident after hearing the tips from your video & interview to try this out myself.
    My random/broken thoughts below about ideas, feel free to ignore lol.
    -Bts/pov of shooting/b-roll clips/photowalks
    -Breakdowns of your photos as you create them (feelings, what you like/don't like, why you selected it, why you edited it a certain way)
    -Breakdowns of locations you visit (Why you wanted to go there, how it relates to your photography)
    -Other work that inspires/interests you, maybe interviews (What you like about them, the feeling, how you would like to incorporate it into your own creation)
    -Film specific videos. Really enjoyed your ektachrome e100 video. Not many people do "moody" shot film videos on youtube I feel. Alot of over exposed portra & bnw things but haven't really seen anything like your ektachrome/lomo video other then maybe some Anderson Wes style film photographers trying out cinestill once or twice.
    -Talking about long term gear can also be useful. Talking about how you use your gear is even more useful :)
    But yea good stuff man, your videos & photos keep improving/going up in quality, keep it up!

    Nice video, I've always thought double exposures were just Photoshop voodoo which I'm not very interested in (film appeals to me because of the lack of digital editing you can pull off) now I can't wait to experiment, I want to clash the local countryside views with the city. Can't wait to experiment.

    Hence, here i am checking in.
    Ive shot a few good live music doubles using the stage lights and drawing with them, but not very consistent.

      @teemu.mp4  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lowest I've used is pushing 400 speed film 1 stop, works decent for double exposures. 800 is easier. 200 might be tough depending on lens.

    Hello, what do you mean by pointing at something that’ll give you an “incorrect reading”? How does that translate to the light meter? I’m still learning. Do you mean point somewhere, where the needle on the meter won’t exactly be in the center, but closer to the minus within the meter? (I hope that makes sense😅)
    Also, do the shots on the frame that you’re double exposing basically both need to be different apertures? But also not identical & both slightly underexposed?

  • @claupurin
    @claupurin 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the video, the photos were amazing! I just got a Pentax k1000 last week to learn how to shoot film and I’m having trouble with double exposures, the photos end up being cropped in half (one half first exposure, other half second exposure) instead of overlaying each other. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, maybe I’m not winding the film completely?

    • @teemu.mp4
      @teemu.mp4  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ensure the film is totally "tight" before taking the shot, if its a bit loose that may happen - then with pentax it seems you have to take an empty frame after each double exposure. When I forget, sometimes had the same problem.

      With double expos it'll go past 36 anyway even if you do everything right because the camera isn't smart enough to know you're doing doubles every time the lever is advanced. So that itself won't be a reason to panic. But yeah, tightened film + empty frames after doubles should fix it.
