Learn: Film

Sales of photographic film have been steadily rising over the last few years, with professionals and amateurs alike rediscovering the artistic control offered by manual processes and the creative satisfaction of a physical end product

Ari Wilkins offers step-by-step direction in organizing, preserving and cataloging photo collections for future generations, and identifying, digitizing and sharing collections using family trees and social media. This presentation was made at the annual Rootstech conference, February 25, 2018.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. What is the past and present state of photography? Is it dead, or just waking up? How can past technologies inform us about ourselves, and even help us predict the future?

"Medium Format" is a term used in photography to describe a category of cameras, and the film they use, which is larger than 35mm but smaller than 4 by 5 inches, which is the starting size of large format photography.
