The Analogue Photography Series: Film is Still Alive

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks for watching and thanks for your support. Although we failed to get the attention of the judges, based on our views, likes and comments, I think we've struck a chord with people. I've posted a quick intro video on my own channel if you wish to check out. If you would like to see episode 2 (film) and episode 3 (photographers) then please vote. You can vote once a day for the next 5 days. Please help me spread the word that 'Film is Still Alive'

[@fffeuchtner]

bigheadtaco Very well done Take! Congratulations. Really enjoyed the episode!

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks. More episodes to come.... hopefully!

[@andrewfisher9391]

Awesome! You have my vote.

[@bigheadtaco]

Hi Jerry, you have to go to StoryHive's website. Here's the link to voting for my project: www.storyhive.com/project/show/id/3006

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks Andrew!

[@wichersham]

Greg's comment on digital is spot on. On digital, you need to introduce a charactor to an image. This is exactly why I shoot film.

[@TXGRunner]

Just three days ago I went to Champagne Court, met Mr. Chan, and purchased a Nikon F3/T film camera from him. Of my many film cameras, my favorite is easily the Olympus OM-4T, but the best picture I ever took was with a Contax III made in 1936. I bought the Nikon for the first hand experience of a highly regarded camera. Part of what I like about film is that cameras fit with my affinity for mechanical tools like rifles, cars, and watches. I mostly shoot film because film slows me down, compels me to carefully consider my shot, and motivates me to make an effort at getting a better photograph. The digital features are impressive and the instant feedback is nice, but I found myself just making scores of pictures of the same composition in quick succession while making little effort to find a better angle or proper exposure. Thanks for the video.

[@jannadrielcervo7753]

Film photography will never die. There will always be people that value good quality and taste.

[@minjod]

Holy crap, the quality of this video is insane

[@sonnybrown4758]

Maaaaan, this is great. I'd love to see a much longer version of this!

[@bigheadtaco]

Sonny Brown I’ll post a longer cut on my KZbin channel

[@lilblingking1491]

That would be super cool. I was shocked when the video ended..it held my attention and flew by so quickly hahah

[@bigheadtaco]

ya the 10 minute was a limit set by StoryHive. But I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@darrylsmith3102]

They should have gone to Kodak, Fujifilm, and Agfa film.

[@stephaneg]

I've probably watched 90% of the videos here about film photography and this one, with "Long Live Film" is by far my favorite! Great job and thank you!!!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@bigheadtaco]

steph Blafr thanks for that!!

[@MrSilvestre587]

It's a niche, sadly speaking. Film cameras are no loger produced.

[@bendijk3483]

Thanks for making this video. Really enjoyable. I started to shoot on film and have to admit its really fun to use these cameras from the 70ies

[@FirstOnRaceDayCapri2904]

For me no amount of lightroom presets, film emulations, and 1 Billion megapixel cameras will replace the beauty of a projected slide or a slide on a lightbox viewed with a loupe!

[@bigheadtaco]

Blue Oval Forever so true!!

[@jolobailo]

That's for sure.

[@CraigMansfield]

I have original slides from the SFX master: "Dick Smith" (rest in peace), and the colours are just beautiful. Especially viewed through light, as you say. So bright, so vibrant and clear. I do shoot with a DSLR, and I love it, but I do like that we still have the choice to use film or digital photography (and really you're not a photographer if you can't use your camera in manual mode). I really love the look of some old film. Greg Girard's photos were lovely to my eyes.

[@bigheadtaco]

Greg is one of my favourite photographers from the previous generation of photographers who's still very active and still using film exclusively for his personal work. I'm sure he's excited about the return of Ektachrome, as am I. Yes choice is important, and shooting film doesn't mean you hate digital. I love digital, but I also love film. Thanks again for commenting.

[@scallen3841]

I shot both film and digital

[@jolobailo]

Because: 1. Feelings. 2. Grain and color. 3. Film cameras.

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Max Jolobailo Preach Max, preach.

[@bigheadtaco]

Max Jolobailo all so true!!

[@jimjam6598]

Quality too I think..

[@writingmaster3008]

Warmth

[@pacocandano]

TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!! smartphones are practical and can achieve great results and post immediately online, but there is nothing like a natural shutter sound, (not emulated), sorry!

[@bigheadtaco]

Hello everyone, I hope you enjoyed my mini documentary on film photography. For some reason this video was unlisted for about a year and has been de-prioritized by KZbin's algorithms. Even if you type in the title in the search feature, this video won't show up. If you haven't already, please like the video, and if you can leave a comment. Tell your friends too. This should help boost the views again and have it back on track for more views. Thanks for all your support!!

[@RetroPixel_analog]

What a great project. I love film. I started with film and I went back to it. There is just so much more life in this physical pictures. I love the fact that film photography slows down the whole process and that you have to create an even deeper relationship to your subject to get "the" shot. Not to forget the cool darkroom work, that makes your negative a piece of art.

[@nickbedford]

The culture I think one of the aspects too that I enjoy. I'm both a digital and film photographer and each has their own meaning and use case for me, but there is something really enjoyable about trusting yourself with film, and tangible physical nature of it. That being said, film photography has changed the way I shoot digital too.

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for commenting Nick. Yes I think many feel it's either/or, but you can enjoy both for different reasons. I too believe that shooting manually, shooting with film, and even shooting with a rangefinder (so you don't necessarily see what you get (no depth of field POV, no exact framing on subjects close to you, etc.) makes you a better photographer. Digital gives you immediate feed back, and perhaps is a great scouting tool for film. However, I love going straight to film and take my chances. The more I shoot film, the more often my instincts are correct. Thanks for commenting!

[@steveember8972]

Nicely stated. I'm also pleased to be able to say that years of film shooting - including alongside digital - has served to make me a more deliberate D-SLR user.

[@chiforiucioan895]

yes.. tangible.. like the digital photos you can print

[@CalvinHicks1]

Film is very much still alive and it's great to find and see people who are passionate about it continuing to access the format to produce some incredible captures. Thank you for sharing this story.

[@ger1g0]

I have been a silent consumer of your content up to this point. The excellence of this video made me just want to say thanks for the AMAZING effort. The videography is just astounding. Thank you for giving us this very unique POV and vision.

[@bigheadtaco]

ger1g0 thanks for your support! It was fun to create at this level, and with enough votes at StoyHive’s website I can make 2 more episodes :-) thanks again!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Thanks so much, it's always great shooting with Take.

[@kurcbuzdegan6005]

Very much enjoyed this video. I have been a photography enthusiast for 50 years. Exclusively digital of late, but as my son has a good eye for this medium - lots of irony there, but that's another story - I've wanted to share my early experience with him. We are now collecting as many of the cameras I have used at one time in the past - Braun Paxette, Rolleiflex, Hasselblad, Canon F-1, Minolta SRT-101, Minox 35, Rollei 35... that's a short selection of an extensive list. The search and discovery is a very enjoyable part of this journey, as is/will be the photography itself. And it's more than sharing an, almost, lost art. My son was born with Down syndrome, so his understanding of and skill in film photography has an even greater sense of meaning and accomplishment for us both.

[@bigheadtaco]

thank you so much for sharing your experience and personal story. That's what I love about film photography. There's a strong connection with the camera itself, the photos that are created from it, and the stories that we attach to those memories. Keep an eye on my KZbin channel (Bigheadtaco) for more videos like this, although not with the same production level. Thanks again for watching and sharing. It means a lot to me :-)

[@deeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Very inspiring video, thank you!

[@catey62]

Thank you for this. as someone who has fallen in love with film over the last couple of years and enjoys shooting it more than digital, video's like these help inspire me to shoot film even more.

[@andgainingspeed]

Accidentally clicked on this video. It grabbed me right at the start, before I had time to click back. Beautiful work theoughout. The video had all the qualities talked about by the film lovers. I'm not one of them but I like their passion.

[@ArcadeOriginal]

andgainingspeed That’s so great to hear because we tried to make it accessible to everyone. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for giving our documentary a chance. Hopefully if we can finish the series, you'll enjoy episode 2 and 3 :-)

[@elguapo5620]

Great video guys ! it is always about the journey. Film will always be in our heart.

[@bigheadtaco]

Yes, many who grew up in the digital era want to go back to basics in many ways. Tube amps for music, spinning vinyl, and shooting with film. And there's nothing old about film. It's still a up to date process of capturing images, especially when you start getting into the larger formats.

[@cpufreak101]

Glad to see this was made, recently got my hands on a couple 35mm film cameras that I started trying out, and I have to say, Film just honestly gives the photos a whole different feeling than just using my phone's camera

[@NathanielVillapando]

That is why I collect vintage cameras. ❤️

[@Foxglove963]

Nathaniel. And those will retain their value.

[@jamesbrickert1301]

Excellent Video! Thanks you. Having had a commercial photographer/cinematographer for a father, I grew with a darkroom and bulk rolls of 35mm film and shelves of 4X5 sheet film of various ASA/ISO configurations. I loved it all! I gravitated to digital as I could afford the new technology but lately I have wandered back to film after inheriting my father's Hasselblad kit. Thanks again for your informative and entertaining videos!

[@arttyree4504]

Very nicely produced video. Brought back memories of the Leica, Hasselblad gear that I made what are still my best photos with.

[@fabipuello]

I love this documentary! Love the photography and the editing. Also it’s pretty nice to see different kinds of people talking about their particular interests in photography.

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching. Yes my goal was to showcase the diversity within the film photography community

[@fabipuello]

bigheadtaco thank you for creating such an amazing content. It's an oasis to watch such positive things on the times we are living in. Keep up the great work.

[@bigheadtaco]

fabian puello navarro thanks so much. I consider this series a documentary celebrating the film culture

[@royclm]

incredible, the show is mesmerizing that I hope it never end. cheers from Hong Kong.

[@ArcadeOriginal]

clroyone thx! Hi from Van!!

[@bigheadtaco]

Thank you for always being such a great host city whenever I visit. I'll be back in April on another project.

[@elouai-portfolio9144]

Brilliant, beautiful images, amazing shots throughout.

Thanks man, appreciate you reaching out on LinkedIn!

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks for watching. More episodes if we get enough votes :-)

[@MrChristian]

What an amazing short documentary! Thank you!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Christian Thanks so much Christian!

[@bigheadtaco]

Christian we hope to have longer version up on my channel soon

[@cmgreatest7892]

Thank you for taking this series on, its terrific and I am sharing it with analogue and digital students

[@bigheadtaco]

cm greatest thanks for sharing. Yes this isn’t film versus digital. It’s celebrating the analogue photography world

[@ajconnol1]

I love everything about this. I have a new Leica MP on order right now. Film rocks!! I hope you win....

[@bigheadtaco]

Andrew Connolly congrats on MP. Black paint will brass beautifully :-)

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Appreciate it Andrew!

[@pkp5207]

Somehow this video gives me motivation to shoot more film photographs. Thank you for sharing your work.

[@yukonchris]

An excellent short video. I love film photography and need no convincing that it is alive and well. As you said in your video, there is something special about the process that makes it almost magical. It is an emotional connection that digital simply doesn't have, for me anyway.

[@Photojouralist123]

Dear Take I'm so proud of this project you have done. Its amazing I loved every second of it.

[@bigheadtaco]

John Ishii thanks John. That means a lot coming from you!!

[@vinnyv8647]

How does this not have more views!!! It’s amazing!! Good work!

[@BrianMarcWhittaker]

Awesome content and production value. I began shooting film in 2009 in college. I reintroduced myself to film photography in 2012 and shot a roll as recently as yesterday. I hope film stays in business. It's a great artistic and archival medium.

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching Brian. We are under no delusion that film will come back to its former popularity, but it is still an active and sustainable way to making images, especially for visual creatives, artists and hobbyist alike. Happy to know you're enjoying your film photography :-)

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Yeah I agree, I don’t shoot on film all the time but I always love coming back to it. Thanks so much for your comment.

[@djtoman6875]

Take, I'm familiar with your work as Bighead Taco and have enjoyed it for quite some time, but this is your finest work. The interviews, camera close-ups, and time lapses are so well shot and put together to pull the viewer in and move the narrative forward. Congrats on this masterpiece. And now I want to visit David Chan 陳烘 in Hong Kong!

[@upstatexl7165]

I am in love with this. Best of luck to you guys. I would love to see this become a series.

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Zach Parks Thanks for the encouragement Zach, we would too.

[@bigheadtaco]

Zach Parks thanks. The voting is finished so we just have to wait.

[@upstatexl7165]

Well, you guys got my votes. Fingers crossed.

[@kissinghabitfilms2469]

Absolutely love this! You all did a fantastic job. I hope you win the BC prize!

[@bigheadtaco]

Kissing Habit Films I hope so too. We’d love to make more episodes and get to share deeper stories with the local photographers

[@kissinghabitfilms2469]

I know the feeling! My doc is in the AB selection - Stump Kitchen: Cooking For the Heart - and I really want to make the rest of the web series!!

[@bigheadtaco]

your cooking doc is great. Good luck!

great story and brilliantly crafted. huge pat on the back to everyone involved.

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks for watching Carl. Look for more videos on my own KZbin channel if you love photography :-)

[@small.towns.open.spaces]

Well done. I'm finding many of the reasons why people use film in this story the reason why I'm enjoying shooting with my film camera again. Nicely done Take.

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching Rick. In episode 2 we're going to explore film and processing.

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Film has universal appeal! Thanks for watching Rick.

[@peterabbott3438]

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching!

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks for watching Peter!

[@ROE1300]

Excellent video. I just purchased a TLR camera for many of the reasons given by the folks you interviewed. I was very glad to see people much younger than me “discovering” film photography.

[@podilatissaforever5686]

PICOPOULOS CAMERA SERVICE in Greece. LEKKA 26, SYNTAGMA SQUARE, ATHENS-GREECE. The best! I thank him for his help in my hobby, film-photography !

[@tzilpoctil777]

This video is great! Thanks so much for this. I shoot film for the uniqueness of each photo, the real effects that come from the film itself, the imperfections that are symbolic of humanity, which imperfection makes us beautiful. I shoot film because it is real.

[@bananaman1394]

What a beautifully told story in this film. Glad I watched it!

[@Underh20boy]

So so so good. More!

[@bigheadtaco]

Emeralds thanks for watching!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Thanks Emeralds!

[@ShawnBrezny]

I really enjoyed this video Take and well done. Love seeing film making a come back as that keeps film production alive, camera repair people actively employed, and allows me to continue shooting film everyday. It's hard to pin down why film is so great, but for me it's these four things... the cameras, the plethora of film stocks, the process of developing/printing, and the process of forcing me to slow down my shooting. Look forward to the next parts of the series, will be voting! Peace!

[@bigheadtaco]

Shawn Brezny thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. Everyone has different reasons, but yours resonates with me and others. Choosing film is fun (versus picking filters or picking ISO) and the slower process makes it more enjoyable. More episodes coming if we get enough votes, so remember to vote daily :-) thanks!!

[@artyfly100]

Finished shooting my first roll of film on my father's EOS650 today, can't wait to see if anything decent will turn up!

[@bigheadtaco]

congrats on first roll. I'm confident you'll be pleased with the results

[@TL-vt8uk]

Superb!! episode! I would love to see ten 60 minute episodes of interviews and film camera stores from around the world!

[@bigheadtaco]

I would love to do that too, but I don't think there's enough funding to complete a task as big as that! However, if I win the votes, I can make two more episodes

[@legendarycondor]

Man.. This your BEST VIDEO BY FAR!!! I suggest you adopt SOME of this style in your channel man. AMAZING!

[@bigheadtaco]

I would love to have this level of production for my own channel, but you have to remember this took 3 months, a professional videographer/director/editor, 20 hours and $10,000 to produce. As a 30K KZbinr, I have to stick to what is sustainable. That's why getting the second grant to finish episode 2 and 3 is very important to me, to keep the production value very high. I'll keep working hard though to bring the best content I can create. Thanks for watching!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

Appreciate the comment, that means a lot.

[@kevinh.2047]

Excellent. A very good explanation from a lot of interesting points of view. I loved this.

[@anoziecharles418]

Thank you for this... from the bottom of my Heart!! I grew up with my dad taking tons of pictures with his film camera (can't remember the name) but those copies are still available they're amazing!! I'm definitely gonna get a film camera!

[@leoalexhorta]

great docu!! refreshing content among all the gear review videos!! more of these please!!

[@TacoTeaser]

After more then 40 years in the darkroom, the skin on my hands have suffered tremendously from the chemicals used. The waste of paper , time and eco damage was terrible. Digital photography is a blessing. I'm thankful that no more photographers will be terribly effected by the damaging results of strong darkroom chemicals.

[@sundarAKintelart]

You brought me back my days of using MINOLTA SrT. X500, XD7 and 11, Maxxum 9Xi etc...

[@4235141030]

Awesome Take!!!Love it.

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching!

[@beachboyva1]

Awesome documentary series!! I can't wait to see other episodes. I've followed you for a while and have become an avid Ricoh GR fan. I own both the GRii and the Ricoh GR1s.

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks! Both beautiful cameras, but also very very powerful!!

[@ArcadeOriginal]

It was so much fun to shoot, thanks for watching!

[@beachboyva1]

bigheadtaco so true! I so glad you introduced them in your vlogs. When is that Ricoh griii coming?

[@beachboyva1]

Ryan Savella no problem. You guys did a great job! Keep them coming.

[@bigheadtaco]

I hope the new GR is coming... worried it's not.....

[@al3657]

Take, this video was very well done. Good job and good luck. Lots of comments so far on Mint’s Instax RF. Gotta say it looks pretty slick!

[@bigheadtaco]

thanks for watching. Yes I warned Gary that he better have the camera built by the time the documentary airs. He's a couple months out from full production.

[@tallaganda83]

Great video mate as usual i will definitely give a vote, love the process and aesthetic of film.

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks for watching but the voting is over. But liking the video and commenting helps show engagement to StoryHive. Thanks for your support!

[@jogrev]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. I enjoyed watching it!!! I still have my film cameras. I have a Nikon 35 mm F2 AS, a Nikon FE and a Contaflex from 1940. In addition to them, I have a Rolleiflex TLR and a Mamiya RB 67 ProS!!! I love all of them!!!

[@bigheadtaco]

shanndz thanks for loving it :-)

[@georgesealy4706]

Well done video, I enjoyed it. The video mentioned something that resonated with me. I am a "journey" person as opposed to a "destination" person. I like driving to a place (and all that goes with it) as much or more than what happens when I get there. And I guess that is what has taken me with regard to shooting film. I have a bunch of digital cameras and lens, some of which are very expensive, but lately I have become very interested in shooting film. I recently pulled out a 40-year-old Pentax film camera that I have, and I went about shooting with it. The "journey" was fun and it's a challenge to see what I could do with it. I plan on doing more of it. There is much to learn about modern films that are available, and it is fun and interesting to try them out.

[@Lainer1]

Awesome. I hope more of these films will be made.

[@bigheadtaco]

Yes within the last couple of years, at least a dozen new films and film brands have emerged.

Thanks Frank!! ✨🙏🏼✨

[@ramelsen]

OMG this video almost made me cry, and realized how much I miss my film cameras... 😢

[@bigheadtaco]

I'm not happy you're about to cry, but yes shooting film is all about enjoying the process, making memories, being in the moment.... thanks for watching!

[@7mounts]

Excellent initiative and a very well done video, both as far as content and quality. I really hope Telus and Storyhive can continue to support productions about analogue photography and --why not--cinematography. Perhaps other organisations may also join-in to promote film-based photography in other countries, particularly in Europe.

[@rafaelamatarazzo4644]

I love it.

[@davidwillis3330]

Excellent video..you’ve got my vote..Dave

[@bigheadtaco]

Thanks David!!

[@1989Goodspeed]

For me film has that X-factor, that hard to describe “organic feel” that makes it alive. Loved that interview you and John did with David in Hong Kong where he put it the best: “Digital is McDonalds, Film is the home kitchen”. I think that sums it up quite good. In music I know musicians rave about the difference between analogue and digital delay, the sound difference is night and day. The analogue stuff just sounds more “organic” while digital is a sterile reproduction. Granted there is room for both analogue and digital, I use booth. But the more I use film the more I appreciate its dreamy “imperfections”. Anyway, I am rambling. Grate video!

[@timrosenthal46]

Fantastic Taco, I'm looking forward to the longer version.
