- In this video, I talk about creating a shutter mask. This isn't about your boring panorama or aspect crop mask, but something just a bit different.

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency this might not be the best place. These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv remote control. Pretty random and confused.

This is cool. An interesting effect along the idea of Psychedelic Blues but without spending $20 a roll.
Thanks! I can see the comparison. Although not as random as Psych Blues, but if you were trying for that holding a prism in front of the lens could mimic it pretty well I think.
YOU’RE CRAZY FOR PUTTING CRAP LIKE THIS INSIDE YOUR CAMERA. Having said that, I love the cat photos! (And I thought the camera I sent you was the beater haha).
Haha it might have been 😆
I'm curious if the same effect could be achieved taking a series of photos of a black/white print of the design(s) you want. Rewinding and then lining it up and shooting the roll. Like an all in one film swap with yourself.
In that case would work similar but you would have no second image inside the squares, just a white pattern. Sometimes I do the exact method you've described during film swaps using a CPU monitor to display white text on a black screen and photograph that so the other person can overlay their image. 🙂
Brilliant idea & Some Great shots too :)
Thanks! 🙂
This is amazing
Thanks Helen! I'm excited to try the hole punch next.
I did a lot of this about 20 years ago. But did it by cutting mattes that got put in front of the lens. Tons of fun, I like you method.
Blocking of the front side is usually my go-to, it provides really good blending results.
@@filmismorefun Actually it would be fun to get your thoughts on the differences between using mattes in front of the lens vs. Matting in the film compartment . Are there applications where you think matting in the film compartment is the better method?
Of the two options, I definitely think matting/ blocking the front lens is more useful. You can more easily blend exposures how and where you want as opposed to the stationary mask in the back.
The positive of a mask though would be the definitive separation between the blocked part and the exposed part- as opposed to the more of a gradient you get on the front side. Also, for consistency, if you wanted a cut out in the same spot every time, the mask might be the way to go 🙂
this made me think about the possibility to make masks similar to some of the cheep point and shoots have if you want to shoot fake/cropped xpan shots but the lomography hole thingy isnt for me :)
Yeah, the image quality from shooting through the tape isn't great, but cutting out the squares (or whatever shape the mask past is) with an exacto knife could help with that a bit). I have a Ricoh R1 that has a 'drop down' set of bars that mask the frame and essentially create a fake panoramic crop. Same basic principle. :)
rad, call me inspired
Thx man
Definitely not my thing, but if you dig it go for it! There are no rules to creativity.
Right on 👍
