[@CineStillFilm]

no, thank YOU Brae! 🖤🤍

[@BraeHunziker]

🥲❤️

[@melaninxhalide1165]

I know landscapes are your peanut butter & jam, but your portrait work is what I look forward to the most. 🔥

[@BraeHunziker]

Ah thank you! I appreciate that :)

[@hayesnorman3244]

The combination of the contrast and grain suited this shoot so well in my opinion. Always love watching your videos dude 🤙

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you brother 🙏🏻

[@RecluseHolster]

Great to see the 11th Street bridge get some love in B&W.

[@BraeHunziker]

Iconic!

[@ethanbrady5736]

Bro these are sick!! I don’t ever shoot black and white that much anymore but this has inspired me to pick a roll up.

[@BraeHunziker]

Do it! Stuff is awesome. Cheers!

[@DerSollek]

This is such a strong series of pictures. I’m super impressed with how good you are outside of what you mostly do, but not surprised at all. Absolutely phenomenal.

[@BraeHunziker]

Ah thank you so much Tristan! Appreciate that.

[@NickSmithPhoto]

That was some sweet video editing, really loved the image carousel section of the video. Very visually engaging

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you Nick!

[@ZaneGage]

Damn, you nail the tone so well in every video! Top shelf stuff

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you Zane!

[@proudy015]

jesus fukin christ, that one came at the best moment possible. Thx for saving my sunday!

[@BraeHunziker]

Love to hear that, enjoy sir!

[@iainlaurence]

I took photos of all sorts of wheeled sports like skateboarding, BMX and mountain biking for a job a few years ago, those were the most fun subjects to shoot

[@BraeHunziker]

Agreed! Had a super fun time shooting these.

[@piratenholz]

That front board in the quarter So dope 👌🏻

[@BraeHunziker]

Love that one! Thank you

[@racheltham]

This whole video was such a treat! Love the way you edited it and the photos turned out so good!!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you Rachel! Appreciate the support :)

[@William_Oh]

Underrated: b/w video to go with b/w photos… nice job sir!

[@BraeHunziker]

Haha thank you :)

[@nicksucio]

cinestill bwxx in 35mm was always my favorite stock as well, something about it.. Amazing how much detail is still retained, dope scene captured!

[@BraeHunziker]

Right? The stuff is awesome

[@aristoioannidis7490]

Pure genius Brae! Outstanding assessment on the BwXX in 120.

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you sir!!

[@filmbuff2777]

This is an awesome film. Raging Bull & Schindler's List were also shot on this film stock.

[@Necroblob]

Love all your videos but this one in particular. The photos are great and so different from your normal style. Really suited b&w

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you! glad you enjoyed :)

[@prestonbaker4980]

Love the whole video! It would be so cool to see more skateboarding video/photography content! Keep doing you though, you are doing some sick work.

[@BraeHunziker]

Expect some more this summer 🤘🏻

[@philoography8233]

Those are phenomenal images💯💯💯

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you!

[@ChrisMarxen]

Dig the shots with the sun out. Nice curvy shadows in those quarterpipes and real nice contrast. Cool video 😎

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you Chris :)

[@ananomiac5556]

phew your editing skills with that scroll through the shots was fire

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you!

[@adambrya7595]

Brae going to the next level 🤯 this video is insane you killed it and the photos are incredible

[@BraeHunziker]

Appreciate you always brotha 👊🏻

[@inkaststudio]

Content heavy! 🙌🏾 Thanks for sharing!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@tycjantrzpiola]

I was waiting for the video from you with some skateboarders. And here we go!

[@BraeHunziker]

haha i got you, enjoy!

[@aguy4247]

Bronica squad! I'm on an ETRSI. I recently decided to start trying some black and white, despite a lot of black and white being lost on my personal tastes. This film was announced literally the day after I decided to do that. I think cinestill is spying on me or something, but, I'm not gonna complain, these results look sick and as someone who grew up skateboarding in an area where DIY was the only option, I clicked on this video with lightning speed haha. Good work dude.

[@BraeHunziker]

That's awesome! Definitely like getting outside my comfort zone with b&w at times. Can be good for the creative muscles. Cheers!

[@aguy4247]

@@BraeHunziker Yeah, trying to live more by the motto of "If you're comfortable, you're not growing", black and white makes me nervous and is challenging therefore I need to be doing it more. Gotta leave the comfort of portra and ektar hahaha

[@ReimannPembroke]

Damnit Brae this is too much heat in one video!

[@BraeHunziker]

haha thank you bro, glad you enjoyed!

[@MacnTeensVisuals]

Love the set of photos Brae and shooting this one just looked fun as hell. Great video as always man ✌

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you!!

[@Slightlyhungryartist]

This entire video is just soaked in west coast vibes. 😅 Love the film, love the shots, great work man!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks so much, appreciate it!

[@bobsykes]

Great location/subject, and Awesome photos! Sweet. At first these photos reminded me of the Kodak Tri-X Pan 400 ASA I used to shoot with the great contrast and grain I love. But damn, what you recovered from the highlights and dark tones in that underexposed image! Holy cow, I’ve got to try this. Is this a C-41 film? Cheers, Brae!✌️

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you Bob! It’s d96! Definitely try it out, I think you’d love it 🤙🏼

[@bobsykes]

@@BraeHunziker Thank you. You've convinced me with these photos you've made. I ordered some (35mm). Also I found the Kodak data sheet, but you've already answered my question. :). www.kodak.com/content/products-brochures/Film/DOUBLEX-Technical-Data-EN.pdf

[@AdventurousInsight]

Was waiting for this one!! Awesome video and great images 👌🔥

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks Zakk :)

[@okmchl]

I had no idea they came out with a 120 version. I placed an order as soon as your video was over!

[@BraeHunziker]

haha lets go! enjoy!

[@PRRrailfan]

Dang these are way different than your usual, but absolutely killer!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks Sean!

[@tom3056]

You can always bulk load eastman double x (same film) if you wanna save a bit in 35mm.

[@BraeHunziker]

Very true!

[@mattparkin7224]

I do love double-x from the couple of rolls I've shot but I can't get on with the price cinestill have put on it in 120mm format. I get double-x spooled by a guy for €5.50 on 35mm but you're looking at what 12 quid for a roll of 120? I'll stick with ilford or try fomopan

[@FRONTPhotography]

Hell yeh Brae. Love these pictures! Crazy looking spot to shoot to! We’re heading out tomorrow to shoot a roll for the first time!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks guys! Enjoy, this stuff is awesome :)

[@Skigday]

oh man I was out shooting at that same skate spot with my friend a few weeks ago!

[@BraeHunziker]

No way! It's pretty sweet. Nice setup for DIY

[@Skigday]

@@BraeHunziker yea me and a friend were taking photos in Tacoma for the first time and found the spot. It is a really sold DIY!!

[@adambrya7595]

Miss u brae fr 😂 what a SICK video

[@BraeHunziker]

Haha thanks homie 🤘🏻

[@jeric3857]

im a simp for brae. holy crap this dudes pretty.

[@BraeHunziker]

haha legend

[@viktorkubanek3649]

Brae still keeping it fresh!

[@BraeHunziker]

haha thanks! Trying to :)

[@adambrya7595]

FINALLY BLACK AND WHITEEEEEEEE

[@GaryIrving-x5o]

Whiiiiiiite

[@ArseniiSavitckii]

3:26 - looks like a cover for an album

[@simonpalmer1617]

I shot Cinestill BWxx last November. Honestly, best BW stock I've shot. Interested to see it pushed to 400/800!

[@BraeHunziker]

I've heard people have gotten good results doing so!

[@big6700]

There is a skate park that is for locals only in seattle in sodo by bnsf rail road. Not as clean as Tacoma but good for b&w.

[@BraeHunziker]

Oh good to know!

[@_lowcountry]

Damn you really snapped on these. I’m curious to know how you went about setting up the flash with your Bronica so I’m gonna peep your site. I’ve said this before but I’ll always be hella stoked when you bust out the SQ

[@BraeHunziker]

That thing will always be my fav camera, can't go wrong

[@scottfraser.wildlife]

These are fkn awesome!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks Scott!

[@tobiasx8312]

Wow great job! Keep it up. Did you adjust the flash once or how did you meter the scenes?

[@BraeHunziker]

Just had my flash on auto and was cycling between 1/30th-1/250th @f4-f/16

[@Noah-gd1zf]

How do you manage to increase your video quality all the time when it's already so good, the editing was so good in this 🤯 love the content, keep it up!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks so much Noah!

[@rickymorales6518]

HOLY HOLY🔥🔥🔥

[@BraeHunziker]

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@Stesalti]

The Pentax 67??? Where is??? Nice shots

[@BraeHunziker]

It shall be back dont worry !

[@levi_zim2818]

UNDERRATED!!!!

[@BraeHunziker]

🙏🏼

[@wocky1993]

Those black and white scenes are madness, get some original XX and make a movie Brae.

[@BraeHunziker]

haha now there's a good idea!

[@shannonk339]

I'd love to know your flash settings, I'm new to flash photography and I'm too nervous to use it with film just yet!

[@BraeHunziker]

Had my flash set to auto the whole time. For shots that I wanted motion blur, I would use 1/30th @ f/11-16, for freezing the action I would use 1/250th @ f/4-5.6 usually!

[@lamman08]

Bruh, I had never heard of this stock until this video! The film looks great, and those shots are dope so imma have to pick up a few rolls ASAP. Thanks for the upload and introduction to a new film!

[@BraeHunziker]

Thank you dude! Cheers!

[@boggeyy263]

And my Sunday night is complete

[@Wiencourager]

This film is amazing in Diafine, shot at 650.

[@hugo24fps]

U need to invest in portrait pics. this is awesome

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks! Every time I take portraits I remember how fun it is haha. Definitely need to do it more this summer.

[@justindalton67]

Fireeeee

[@BraeHunziker]

Thanks Justin!

[@stuartconnelly5397]

Did you use a filter or just shoot straight?

[@BraeHunziker]

no filter

[@josephsabio]

Why did you choose to use flash during the daytime?

[@BraeHunziker]

It was pretty dark under the overpass and flash in the daytime can have a cool look

[@tobyasant]

Hey guys, is it just me or something wrong happened if you play this vid not in 720p/1080p? like, it's just a stripes like broken tv if i play outside those resolution

[@BraeHunziker]

Hmm that's weird, seems to be all good for me!

[@someonewithsomename]

Why you couldn't just buy Kodak XX? Does nobody make 120 spools in States or what? It's not a problem at all to find spooled Vision3 and XX motion picture film here.

[@state8351]

Sorry, just catching up on all your video and this may be late... but has anyone step up to your Fuji Natura request? If not I got a roll for you.

[@BraeHunziker]

Haha nobody has! That would crazy!!
