I quit well paying,boring job when I was 20 to work in photo lab. Was risky move making less money to do something that looked fun for living. Was the most awesome job., was happy go to work everyday. Changed my life , been photographer 30 yrs stating right where Cy is .
I've had this song on my phone for over 10 years now. Agfa Montage is a great peace of music. But never seen the movie so i never knew where it was used until now
Those are things you can get another copy sent off for if they get lost/stollen. This was the age before people stored their albums in digital format on social media. If you lost a physical photo and didn't have a copy, that's it. It's gone forever.
I worked with doing the full film photography process myself. After developing the negative photos, you have to expose specific film paper for a second or less. This transfers the image to the special paper type.
The process doesn’t show the last steps in this movie: that you have to develop the photo paper in chemicals as well along with washing and drying the photo paper.
As someone that did that as a job its hard as you need to empty the machine each night of chemicals then refill. And in the morning you did test prints to get the chemicals balances right. If the chemicals balance wasn't right you could go through atleast 10 photos plus and 10+ prints getting the machine set up right. Then you have to run atleast 10 of both. And it was the same machine they used in the movie
Also we had 3 folders. Not small folders but big ones. Also 2 day no it took months to learn. Also the colour 0.3 was normal with those machines. As I had to get in an hour plus to get it working right before the store opened. In the end me and others knew which part f**ked up. What they don't show in the movie we had a box in a black bag. With arm holes to get the negatives out before putting then in the canister ect.

Me too but it was my first real job. 8 years, also a photographer and was a blast
Inside Joke: Robin Williams attended a "2 day seminar" to learn how to use the Agfa MSC-101.d minilab he uses.
Back then from 90s to mid 2000s it was so simple and fun taking pictures.
Yet, super expansive. 35 cent a photos is like 1 dollar per print.
I could listen to Robin's voice every day!! Hes so calming..
Fucking love this movie

An minilab, it makes the developing and the printing of an photo
@@socialfalconebut is the light exposing the image onto the paper from the actual negative or from the scan of the negative?

Just take a photo with your phone. It’s much easier 🙄
