Cameraless Filmmaking experience

It's amazing how cameraless works! To think of doing cameraless is like painting or messing around on the filmstrips with anything you want without using an expensive camera. That's really awesome to do that. I mean, anyone can do that! I actually never tried this until now and I felt inspired for doing it. I would definitely try them at home for a hobby. As for magazine transfers, I have enjoyed that also. I plan to keep doing that for a hobby too!

My partner and I are still figuring out what to draw whatsoever on the filmstrip for the project to make the figures look realistic with the right colors. I'm new to this and I'm not getting used to drawing on the filmstrip but I'm enjoying it as much as I can! We have talked about the elements that match the colors and we figured, what the hell, let's do something a bit different. We don't need to match the elements to the right colors. We can try the elements to the objects like food or grocery stuff. For example, let's try air as plastic wrap or whatever and also fire as pepper with a Mexican hat. Ironic, huh? But we're getting there..:)

And for the darkroom, I didn't know what to put on the exposed film. In fact, I actually freaked out that I would mess them up, but I guess I did good. Hopefully they turned out okay. I have volunteered to help the films to get them developed..I felt weird when I had to pick a bunch of films up and then stirred them. I thought they were trying to trap my hand or something. :) But anyways, all is good and it was so much fun. :)
