    Kodachrome: songs have been written about it, parks have been named after it, movies have been produced about it. It is an iconic film that has not been commercially processed since January 18, 2011. The photo lab to make its last stand for Kodachrome was Dwayne's Photo. When Kodak gave Steve McCurry the last roll of Kodachrome off the manufacturing line, Dwayne's Photo was instantly thrown to an international stage as the last lab to process Kodachrome. I would go to say that Kodachrome's legacy is shared with Dwayne's Photo. As we approach the 10th anniversary of the last rolls of Kodachrome to be commercially processed, we invite Derek and Josh Carter, grandsons to Dwayne, and new owners to the multi-generation family business. They share stories of the final days of Kodachrome and discuss the roller coaster ride of the renewed interest in film photography. Dwayne's Photo still processes various formats of film (even Disc) to this day.

    We are getting close to launching our expired film project. However, Bill still has questions about the horde of film Fujifilm Rep, Brandon Remler, has given him. In our discussions with several photographers, we've received numerous recommendations on how to shoot expired film. However, one recommendation keeps getting brought up, "Overexpose one stop per decade."  To get confirmation, we reach out to EM (emulsive.org) to see if this 'rule' is legit or is this just a saying that has stuck over the years.

    Community Collaborations with Michael Bartosek

    The creator for the Kodak 2238 Project, a community collaboration, Michael Bartosek, shares his reasons for starting a film community collaboration. Thirty people are given two rolls of Kodak 2238 black and white film. This is a low speed, fine grain, panchromatic film that is not commonly used for photography. Traditionally, this film is used for digital separation imagery. Then the photographers would develop them and share their images for a zine. His project is going so well that it inspired me to take a horde of expired film that was kindly given to me from a friend and Fujfilm Representative, Brandon Remler. More details to come as I build out the specifics for the zine. Follow Michael Bartosek on Instagram! You can now buy bulk-rolled Kodak 2238 at Michael's Etsy page!
