Ferrania Film Now Available!

[@williamcurwen7428]

Back in the mid 1950’s my father used to process his own Ferrania colour slides at home. The colour is beautiful, I know because I still have them. It has an aesthetic which has influenced my understanding of colour all my life, and although the new version will almost certainly be different, I applaud what these people are doing. 👍

[@AngeloPantano]

I've been following you since the beginning, I love shooting film, I'm from Italy, I had a look at new Ferrania founders project and it is awesome, they are awesome and really braves... I want to be part of Ferrania and make the history of photography. Thanks for sharing Ted!!

[@nithrer521]

As a fledgling italian film photographer, this is very good news. Film is slowly diying, yes, but it's stuff like this that will keep it alive for the community that matters. I've pledged for a 35mm roll. This is going to be my very first reversal color film, it's going to be weird, and kind of terrifiyng (dat tight exposure latitude), I just hope that i give this film the respect it deserves. I'm very glad that you covered this Ted : )

[@oceandrew]

I'm not big on chrome but totally support this effort to get them started.

[@stevenxue1]

So excited for the future of film! First Cinestill, now this.

[@tofuchio]

Hey! Thanks for the heads up! I will definitely pledge money into good beginnings! :)

[@TheNo85307]

This is so amazing. The whole story behind it and future ahead. I'm from Czech republic, so Italy is not that far away from here. I think I'll do trip to Italy and wait there for my 120 films. I just can't wait! Long live film!

[@giuseppeciancia2527]

Thanks Ted for good news!! I just shared this video and the Ferrania Kickstarter project link wherever I could, booking as well my 135 rolls..

[@thestig007]

It's really cool to see film still kicking. I hope they are successful.

[@EarlofGray]

Pledged for two rolls of 35mm and two rolls of 120 yesterday, can't wait for them to arrive here in Scotland. Long live film.

[@negroleopoldo]

Backed up, ordered some film & shared. Thanks for covering the good news!

[@MarkPhilpott]

Thanks so much for the heads up on this ! Totally backed for (some !) 35mm and 120 roll - can't wait. And everything about about it has style that, to me, just drives my photographic curiosity and creativity ...

[@theartofphotography]

Mark Philpott I better get mine like right now!

[@MarkPhilpott]

Haha. Good plan ;)

[@objectionableconform]

This is such great news. Long life film.

[@theartofphotography]

Matthew Schindler Indeed!

[@fotoluz12]

Im definitely 100% for this, thank you Ted for making this possible especially to those who still love film and shoot it. Im making my pledge for sure and already Instagramed it to all of my contacts and for them to share it to spread it like wild fire, I pray that they reach there goal and that they will conserve not just for us but for our future photographer thru out the world to capture every nickel and cranny of beauty this world has to offer.. #FILMLIVESON

[@PhilC_Adventures]

thanks so much for the heads up!!... i'm starting to get back into film and would love to try this film out!.... keep up the great videos!

[@JasonNolanIreland]

Donated, liked and shared from Ireland!

[@wmgould4]

Thanks Ted!! Your videos have certainly made a positive impact on the photography world. I'll think of you when shooting my (4) rolls of 120. :-) I've enjoyed your videos, learned a lot. Thank you.

[@MaxLamdin]

This is an amazing way to get awareness

[@theartofphotography]

Max Lamdin We're trying Max!

[@damiencaze]

Great new! I've been using Rollei films recently, since I can't afford Kodak tri-x anymore (the price of a 100ft roll reached 12,000 yens in Japan - while it was 6500 a few months ago). I'm wondering what kind of film that Ferrania's gonna be.

[@jesdbz]

Finally some GOOD news for film

[@senorverde09]

I've donated too. Now whether to shoot it or cherish it when it comes!

[@mr.porridge4898]

I loved this video. I'm from Italy and for christmas I received an old camera from Ferrania, a Ferrania Lince 3. Do you know anything about this particular camera?

[@geckocraze]

Great project! I so hope that this gets funded and I get my 4 rolls ;)

[@tomows001]

How exciting is this for the film community. I have pledged $70, I can wait.......really I can...........

[@3rdRockRider]

Just backed them with the 120 Lover pack for $70. Thanks Ted for letting us know about it!

[@sanctoclaro]

Very cool, and it looks like the project will get funded. Ted, you mention wanting to get some of the 8mm. Curious, I guess you'd send it out for processing and scanning, so you can have a digital video file, or what would you do with it? If you did take it digital, it'd be fun to see whatever you shot posted here on youtube.

[@theartofphotography]

That's the plan ;-)

[@HobbsBhipp]

Fellini's films filmstocks; wow, I learned something.

[@KajiRider1997]

I hope to hear more. I got this Italian Filmor box Camera from 1950-54 itching for 120mm Ferrania film. Sure I can use Ilford but I just feels better you know? xD

[@kingberzerk]

I just wanted to go for the snap pack $35 via kickstarter and I am living here in Germany. I don't have a credit card and kickstarted demands payment via amazon - it only works with credit card. Is there an opportunity to pay via paypal and kickstarter?

[@E-StudiosEU]

4K Left! I hope this is going to be fund! I was scared 3 days ago they needed 53K dollars. but I look now its only less 4K left!

[@stiknstring]

Halfway there after only 2 days!!! Sweet!

[@fotoluz12]

I hope they bring back the Ferrania, Zephir camera

[@IainHC1]

Brilliant news :-)

[@francisbellefeuille1146]

Did my part! got the 35mm and 120! but hey I'm a film fan too can't I get the postal card signed!!?? :P

[@markhood]

I've backed them - at the time of writing, 24 hours after they start and they've broken $100,000! Film Nerds Unite...

[@vernonsza]

Ted, you should get the 8mm or 16mm and shoot one of the videos for this channel on it.

[@philbolton2782]

4x 35mm ordered - is it April yet??

[@ScottCalkins]

Got 2 rolls of 35 and 120. Now to find a medium format camera.

[@FaisalJafar]

Thank you for share.

[@trucco1303]

Why not talk about CineStill and there Kickstarter project?

[@AnthonyGrisier]

Aren't E6 labs hard to find?

[@AkibaAvenue]

Kojak !!! hahahahaha you make me laughing a lot! ^^

[@Katana2040]

Love it!

[@eagle112800]

Very cool. Already contributed. If we don't start funding these projects we will have no film to shoot on...

[@kauxkaux]

sorry my ignorance but is this film developed in c41?

[@theartofphotography]

kauxkaux Its an E6 film. C41 is negative, E6 is a positive "slide" film. There are labs still like Dwayne's in Kansas you can mail it off too or you can do it at home. To confuse you more, you can develop this in C41 - its called cross process. It results in color shifts and has an interesting look to it.

[@831angelrocha]

Count me in...

[@patrickjclarke]

I really hope they make an E-6 chromogenic BW Chrome film... Can you imagine? *drool*

[@Internatmusiker90]

Now I´m sad because I can´t pay the money. It´s only possible with a credit card :( (no paypal available) Greetings from Germany!

[@EwaldDieser]

Discovered this video now. What happened with this project?

[@jaygoldman4995]

Ewald Dieser Ferrania P30 bw film in 35mm is available to buy as of now, with the next goals being bw 120mm and slide film I believe

[@KORNMUSIKde]

I would like to donate, but it seems only possible via a facebook account. Does anyone know if there is another way?

[@Dewingo]

I'm pretty sure you can sign up without FB too, atleast for me it offered the option to choose either FB or just create a normal Kickstarter account.

[@3rdRockRider]

FB is not required. Below the FB Log In, you have the option to create a Kickstarter account. I don't have FB and have been able to back projects no problem.

[@KORNMUSIKde]

Mark Paul Thank you. I have figured it out.

[@TooFarWest1]

$40.00 got me two rolls of 120. And well worth it too.

[@prehistoricpig]

Just backed!

[@matthewhutton957]

ok two positives and a negative + I really like your style +I'm stoked that Ferrania is a thing again -the way you say niche really bugs me Keep up the good work

[@neilmacdonaldfilm]

Backed !

[@adrianw.1638]

Thanks! I got my order out already and tried to spread the news via flickr ("Sosehichdas") . I will keep my fingers crossed and I hope Ferrania has a future.

[@christiankirkenes5922]

I can still buy new film for $8-10 a roll..... why would I pay $30 a roll for this film?

[@patrickjclarke]

I think This Week in Photo (TWiP) and Frederick Van Johnson should cover this too! Over $100K just in their first day!!!

[@StephenThorley]

Shut up and take my money!!!

[@tianlianghau8597]

Thanks for Sharing, Stephen :-) I support film ! With Leica still releasing their latest Leica M-A in 2014's Photokina, the 100% mechanical film rangefinder like my Leica M3, it seems Film is Not Dead ! #filmsnotdead

[@james20583]
