Sunny 16 Presents

In this episode, Tamara Harper was kind enough to share her experiences working in multiple disciplines. From enjoying various needle and fiber arts to running a small business - to writing a book on her experience as a parent managing screen time - to being a trained pianist, music teacher and singer and songwriter, Tamara talks us through some of her thoughts on authenticity and creativity.     Smallwoods Studios - https://www.smallwoods-studios.com Scarves for Hillary - https://www.smallwoods-studios.com/secretary-clinton Monstrosity Project - https://www.smallwoods-studios.com/monstrosity TEDxBirmingham - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-og4fj4d1Q Living Restfully: A Skeptic's Guide to Raising Children Screen-Free - https://www.amazon.com/Living-Restfully-Skeptics-Children-Screen-Free-ebook/dp/B00VNY6JQG IG: @thesmallwoods   Style Shop - https://styleshop.bandcamp.com Summer Cut - https://styleshop.bandcamp.com/album/summer-cut IG: @styleshopmusic   Theme song “Zero Me” by @myopic_me   Questions by @bsanfordjr

To kick off this series, I was honored to be joined by Tiffany Goolsby who I initially became familiar with through the vibrant images she submits to the Frugal Film Project every month. We talked about how she became interested in photography, then her interest in film specifically. We talked about the benefits of using the same kit over a period of time, what she enjoys about photography, and a little about what engaging in photography adds to her life experience.   I hope you enjoy this initial installment and please do check out Tiffany's work.  Website: www.tiffanygoolsby.com IG: @tiffanyshootsfilm The Frugal Film Project: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1Fr4xRk1BD/   If you feel strongly compelled to get in touch, you can comment on the IG post of this episode on Sunny 16 Presents (@sunny16presents) or email sunny16presents@gmail.com.   Featuring the musical stylings of Graeme Jago (@myopicme on IG) I am Billy Sanford (@bsanfordjr) and just enjoy talking to creative people. Thank you for listening.

Coming soon, a new podcast series called O Me! O Life! Inspired by the existential crisis of Walt Whitman in the wake of the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century, we'll attempt to explore what verse we might add to the enduring play that is humanity.   Featuring the musical stylings of Graeme Jago.   Watch this space!

Clare returns for an episode about David Lynch's 1986 noir thriller Blue Velvet. She's joined by Billy Sanford and they discuss the movie, characters and themes from the film. They also touch on some of David Lynch's other work and discuss the state of independent filmmaking in contrast to big budget Hollywood blockbusters.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Velvet_(film)   Clare Marie Bailey: Website - https://www.claremariebailey.com/ Instagram - @claremariebailey Billy Sanford: Instagram - @bsanfordjr   Music   ‘Motorway' by Mirror Gaze https://sivilised.bandcamp.com/track/motorway   http://sivilised.com/mirror-gaze/

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) talks with photographer and filmmaker Marta Arjona (@marjonablasco).   They began by discussing Marta's short films Dolors and Peaceful Wind. They also talked about using expired films and some of Marta's favorites.   Marta was the recent recipient of a community grant from Ilford for her project ePhemeral. The nature of dance is that a dancer will never move exactly the same twice, so each performance is unique. Capturing it on film makes it eternal.   They finished up with the reoccurring segments FFS (For Film's Sake) and PACS (Pleasing Analogue Camera Sounds) and Marta gave a shoutout to Cuarto Color Lab (@cuartocolorlab).

In this episode of the @onlyfilmsproject podcast, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Bettina (@ysa.gb) as they work on prints at Aire Street Darkroom (@airestreetdarkroom). Bettina is a film photographer from Manchester who Mandy met on a @northwestfilmphoto walk.   They talk about Bettina's early influences on film, camera preferences, using portraiture to change our personalities in approaching people, zines, and exhibitions. They also discussed their thoughts on fresh perspectives of familiar surroundings, femininity in photography, inspiration for subjects and subject matter and how Instagram has changed over the last few years.   Finally they share a Film Failure Story (FFS) that many will be able to relate to as well as touching on digital photography.

On this episode Mandy (@mandyleft) talks with Nico (@thatonenico) about teaching film photography.    The conversation begins with Nico talking about his experience working in a film lab and how answering questions from lab customers sparked his interest in education. They then talked about teaching young photographers. Nico shared insights on some of their reactions to film from point and shoots, pinhole, medium format, instant and with developing and printing.   Mandy asked Nico about his personal experience with photography, particularly in traveling with film. They talked about the future of film and some of the benefits as a medium since so much of it involves hands on experience and working with older mechanical equipment.    Finally they introduced a fun new segment.   OnlyFilms on IG: @onlyfilmsproject 

Mandy (@mandyleft), Alex (@disorganised_film) and Kristian (@kristian.faulkner) are back with first impressions of their results shooting and developing Ferrania P33. They discussed how they thought it compared to other films on the market and how this new film might fit into their different photographic styles. They finished by talking through plans of how to shoot and develop another roll in the future. Along the way, they shared some news of what they've been up to and revisited one of the more unique (PACS) pleasing analogue camera sounds from a past episode.   Shout out to Aire Street Darkroom (@airestreetdarkroom) where Mandy and Kristian developed their rolls and made a few prints.   You can find out more about Ferrania (@filmferrania) and their story at their website - https://www.filmferrania.com/

Hello and welcome back to Grainsplaining!   Today I sit down for a chat with my friend Holly @photoxcore_archive* Holly and I have both done some travelling with film recently. In this episode we discuss airport anxiety, the nightmare confusion of xray machines and our tips for travelling with film!    But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom, we also talk about the joys of travelling with film: amazing labs, the film community we have met across the globe and why you shouldn't be put off by the daunting task of airport security!    I've also recruited Holly to help with our #IWDFrameTheGrain Event.

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) catches up with Emma Lloyd (@emmajlloyd_).   They talked about Emma's experiences with film in Australia since moving there last year.  Going on a photowalk with members of the film community in Adelaide, independent labs in Melbourne in general and specifically FilmNeverDie (@filmneverdie), what cameras she took, how much film, what she is photographing and the idea of bonding with people in a new country over film.   Then with March being Women's History Month and the 8th being International Women's Day (IWD), they talk about #sheheartsfilm which Emma started while she was working at Analogue Wonderland and current projects they have both planned to recognize and celebrate the month.   Emma is organizing a print sale to benefit women's charities. Photographers can share prints on social media that they would like to sell along with the hashtag #IWDFrameTheGrain. People who are interested in purchasing the print can coordinate with the seller and do so by making a donation to a charity that benefits women. Follow the hashtag and the Grainsplaining IG account (@grainsplaining) for updates on the project.   Mandy would like to put together a zine with portraits of female film photographers. She'd like to make the portraits this year and put together the zine in time for International Women's Day (8th of March) in 2025. Please get in touch if you would be willing to be one of her subjects.

Hey gang! We are back! In this mini episode Emma is here to update you on life down under, film photography in Australia and an exciting project for International Women's Day! To celebrate Women's month, we will be organising a charity print sale under the hashtag #IWDFrameTheGrain. Listen in to find out how you can get involved, or head to our instagram feed for more details.   Emma also introduces our next mini series ‘from the archives' featuring episodes recorded B.A (Before Australia).   P.S. This was recorded whilst lying in a hammock, on a beach, on an island in Australia… so there may be some bug noises in the background.

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Katie (@darkroomkt). They talked about how Katie first got started with printing and then about how she built her darkroom during lockdown.   They talked about printing in colour and with different formats before discussing Katie's work with photograms and how her process has evolved over the last couple of years.   They then discussed “Silver & Light: An Analogue Photographic Exhibition” (@analoguephotoexhibition) that Katie has organized since visiting the Canwood Gallery (canwooodgallery.com) last year during the Herefordshire Art Week. The exhibition will feature 29 analogue photographers including Mandy. There will be a private viewing on the 30th of March where many of the artists will be present and you can chat with them about their work (please RSVP through the account). Then the event itself will launch on Thursday the 4th of April and run throughout the month until the 28th on Thursdays - Sundays from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm.     

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Kris Faulkner (@kristian.faulkner) about the zone system. They talk a little bit about the history and how the system works to help improve your black and white exposures. They talk about Fred Archer, Ansel Adams and John Blakemore as photographers known for using the system.   Kris talks about Pinsta cameras and also how 3D printing by companies like Chroma Cameras can help photographers get into large format. Kris also mentioned wanting to visit the Peak District soon, particularly the Monsal Trail for some photography.   Finally they talked about compact cameras. Although the market is smaller for compact cameras than it was a few years ago, there are rebadged cameras available at places like Boots and it is a great option for people just getting into film photography.

Back in November 2023, Mandy (@mandyleft) and Alex (@disorganised_film) chatted about Alex's upcoming trip to Japan. On this episode, they catch up to talk about how the trip - Alex's experiences with street portraits, lab development and camera shops.

Welcome to Tips, Tricks and Traps. A podcast series to help others learn from my own misguided and wayward journey through the wonders of film photography. What's special about me? Nothing, I'm just an average sort of amatuer photographer - looking to share experiences and thoughts about our fantastic shared passion, learn from and snigger at failures, salute success and hopefully stick with me.   Links to my photography:  S K | Flickr and Sam Knight (@samsphotographiclife) • Instagram photos and videos   YouTube: https://youtube.com/@analoguelifephoto   Get in touch at sunny16presents@gmail.com   Music used is: Positive Fat Bass Intro Loop by WinnieTheMoog Link: https://filmmusic.io/song/6093-positive-fat-bass-intro-loop License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/

After a slightly rocky start where John-Michael's geography knowledge (or lack of it) is revealed, a wonderful discussion with the fantastic Jake Hicks follows.   Jake has a very distinctive style to his images, using ample amounts of color in very controlled ways.   A couple of his images are discussed later in the show, so hop over to discord, or YouTube to see the pictures.   Jake can be found at: https://jakehicksphotography.com and JakeHicksPhotography on Facebook Instagram, and YouTube.       John-Michael's Website: jmm-photos.com Instagram: @jmmendizza Images discussed in the podcast are available to see on the Sunny 16 Discord.

A real treat for this episode - we get to take a deep dive into some of John-Michael's work! Following our conversation about how flash works in theory, this is the practice. A full breakdown of multiple images, the planning, thinking, sets and techniques.   Images discussed in the podcast are available to see on the Sunny 16 Discord. Join us over there

John-Michael and Ade indulge their inner technical geeks this time - because it is time to talk about how flash works and how you can work flash. Does this tickle your radio trigger or would you rather we expose 3 stops below the ambient?

John-Michael and Ade explore types of light and lighting. It can get a bit jargony sometimes - knowing you're broad from short and Rembrandt from chiaroscuro - so we're breaking it down and aiming for plain English. Let us know if we achieved that!    Images in the Sunny 16 Discord again so come and join us and the conversation: Sunny16 Discord
