For this project I overexposed the film stock by 2/3’s of a stop (rated at 320 ASA) in an indoor location with mixed color temperatures. Placed most of my attention on metering for the shadows over the highlights (highlight detail retention is such a treat with film). Tried an ADX10 IDT for ACES color workflow w/ 2383 print emul to finish at the end. Caught the Super 16mm bug fuhreal

Last slide - we had a few feet left on the roll at camera wrap & obvy had to capture the fam who made it happen 🎞️
