The awesome people at Indie Film Lab is putting on a "Long Live Film Workshop" on October 17-20, 2022. It's a gathering of professionals, hobbyists, experts, and beginners alike, all with one thing in common - a love for the art of film photography. If you're interested, there's a FAQ and registration form here: www.longlivefilmworkshop.com/ .
Here's a video Jeff said did a good job explaining the chemistry of film:

I work in this building at Kodak and do various types of testing. I am still a newer employee and this was so helpful for me to understand the whole process and how so many things might impact the final product. I heard supervisors saying they were going to have new employees to the building watch this video so that they can get a better understanding of what they are doing as well. Very awesome video. I can't wait until part 3.

[@princepolitely7559]

wheres the part 3 man

[@user-tg9bm6vr2q]

hmm, where is path #3 ?😒

[@soverysleepy]

so when is part 3?

[@TinaGrayson]

Where is 3 of 3?

[@kiddacreative]

where is part 3?

[@brentspotswood]

This whole thing is an incredible display of the economies of scale. It’s such a wildly complex process, requiring a lot of space, machines, energy, and people to be involved, but yet film is relatively cheap. That’s really an amazing thing to see, thanks for sharing.

Where is part 3 of 3?

[@mougnette]

When your process by itself prevents competitors from even trying... then there is no more secrets of manufacturing to hide... just love it

[@seaquake2]

When will the rest of the series be released?

I worked at Kodak from 1976 to 2006 in Rochester. I was fortunate to have worked in support of film manufacturing all those years and spent 12 years in the Film Sensitizing area as a conveyance engineer responsible for a variety of process equipment. I worked in the older coating machines that were built before that machine shown in this video, which weren't quite as sophisticated as this machine. But, the older machine were just as thoughtflly designed, constructed and operated as this one, since that excellence is what enabled Kodak to make world class products affordably and reliably. Kodak was always about quality and excellence. I want to thank Kodak for allowing this tour and documentation because it illustrates the character and ability of the people who made the company great.

Another thing about this is that Kodak is probably going to get more business from this than they think... Showing exactly how you make your products and all this stuff is so refreshing for a company to do. Showing us and educating us lets us really appreciate their product even more. Especially from those of us who are not photographers.

This dude explaining everything, I love him. He knows what he's doing, knows how to explain it in a not super simple but very understandable way. Could listen to him all day about his work.

Big thanks to Kodak for an extensive tour. They were really generous with their time and details they shared. The thing is 20 years ago, it would be impossible, as there is so many proprietary tech and engineering tricks shown here, but as now there is basically no competition in the field, it can be finally reveled. You are looking at combined million hours of engineering efforts and improvements.

[@jasonmead8475]

Destin, I just hope you can step back and see what you're doing with in depth videos like this. Sure, they're entertaining and fun, but you're creating historical artifacts. You're making certain that people like Jeff, and the systems they create and caretake have a little place recorded in history.

[@PascalLiddane]

I work as a coating process engineer and i love this series, so cool to see other companies coatings

[@explorer914]

I was wondering when this episode would be published. And now I have something to look forward to when I'm done at work. 😊

[@willym.6692]

Working at Agfa-Gevaert for 37 years as coating technologist it's amazing to see how Kodak approached the coating and drying of film.

[@fredkoeng418]

Thank you for this great video. I worked 33 years in the Research Labs at Kodak and was always told that coating and emulsion prepartaion was proprietary and hidden behind the "silver curtain." I was never able to get behind that door, in spite of the fact that I was a "film builder." I can now look at what I was able to accomplish there in the Research Labs with a sense of awe considering all of the coatings and chemicals we tested while building films.
