Contact Sheet Photography

Описание: Contact sheet photography is the art of carefully planning your shots in a way that the developed negatives will create a larger cohesive photo.

The easiest form of this process is creating a larger photo out of a bunch of small photos. That's about as far as I gotten with this process, but there are so many interesting and more creative things you can do.

Here's just a smattering of examples:

In my video I mostly talk about the technical side of this process. The fundamentals you need to know is that the image that gets projected onto the film is projected upside down. And you also need to understand how your film advances the film. With those two bits of knowledge you can then plan the sequence of shots.
