Book description
With the popularity of digital photography growing by leaps and
bounds over the last decade, some say film has been dying a slow
death ever since – or is already dead. The reality is that
film has never gone away, and in recent years has experienced a
surging, renewed popularity – sometimes simply for its retro,
analog status, but mostly for film's ability to create a look and
feel that many believe digital can still not achieve. If anyone can
attest to this, it's Utah photographer Jonathan Canlas, who
exclusively shoots with film, and has both an extremely successful
wedding photography business as well as a series of popular
workshops held numerous times per year around the world.
In Film Is Not Dead: A Digital Photographer's Guide to Shooting
Film, Canlas teams up with co-author Kristen Kalp to open the
doors for anyone who wants to begin – or return to –
shooting film. Casual, irreverent, fun, inspiring, and beautiful,
this unique 10x8 hardcover book teaches the reader the basics of
film, cameras, and shooting in this medium. Whether it's discussing
the different tone and color characteristics of different films
(Kodak, Fuji, etc.), how to load a medium-format camera back, how
to create proper exposures, how and where to get film processed, or
how Jonathan uses fun, plastic cameras like the Holga in his
commercial and personal work, Film Is Not Dead appeals to
anyone who is searching to finally begin creating that film look,
but until now hasn't known where to start.
