COMMENTARY: Process – A Short Film About a Large Format Photographer1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Process is a 3-minute short film by director Will Campbell that looks into the mind of a large format photographer.
“It’s a stylish, sensorial exploration into the process and motivation of a large format photographer,” Campbell tells PetaPixel. “The modern digital camera allows us to easily shoot hundreds of frames, edit them, and upload our favourites to the internet within minutes. This is a very different experience to that of the large format photographer.
“For them the process is arduous, analog, and anything but instant. So what pushes large format photographers on? Scott Folsom is a deep well of wisdom and knowledge when it comes to analog photography, large format, and development processes. This film answers the question of why some people would rather have it slow.”
