DEVELOPING

After taking the photographs, we spent our 4^th workshop in developing them.

What we first had to do is to extract the film in a dark room, being careful, we open the roll and get the film, cut the ends, and charge it in a plastic spiral. After this, before turning on the light, we have to put the spiral in a tank, so light can’t get into the film. After, we can turn on the light.

Now, it’s time to keep the process with the chemical part. Three substances are needed: Revealer, stopper and fixer. First, we have to pour the revealer in the tank. We move it rhythmically around 7 minutes. Then, we take it away, and put the stopper around 1 minute, shaking it 10 seconds. The last step is the fixer, another 7 minutes approximately. After retiring it, we wash it with water and get the film. Now, the light doesn’t affect it. We wait the film to be dry, and continue with other step.
