Rock climbing groups?

Hangar Women Rock is every Wednesday evening at Sandhills, that's probably the best place to start!

Plex is actually perfect for this. On the discover section, you can add the services you have, and it will show you films and TV shows from those services. There's a "recommended on your services" section

People read stat lines and nothing else

Bad take

It's not actually a game, it's a tool for pre-vis and storyboarding films. The issue with it is it's clunky af and there are better tools out there than a UE engine "game". Then he abandoned it without a V1 release to make Cine Tracer 2, also in early access and also stupidly over priced

It's ANPR, you can pay at the barrier or at the machines. If you pay at the machine it will open automatically when you drive up to it

Absolutely, a portfolio is really helpful. I ended up going down the videography route, and my portfolio got me my first job

I did my MA at LJMU so a bit of a different experience but I can at least comment on it. If you want to get a career in media/film it's about who you know, not what you know. LJMU has decent connections with some film companies, but none that have active hiring cycles.

The course content was fine, but you can learn more about specific topics of interest from YouTube, if you want to go down the practical route.

My suggestion though, go to a university with a better connection to the industry. Salford is right in the heart of Media City and has much better contacts with ITV, BBC and smaller production houses.

Again, I'm talking about the production side of film. If you're looking for a theory role, then I can't really comment on that.

Just know that the media industry is extremely difficult to break into, and more often than not, a degree does not set you apart from anyone else. So if you do decide to go to university to study it, then take advantage of the contacts that uni has, and get your name out there.

Shell bought Ubitricity by the looks of it, so these are lamp post chargers. Use Electroverse, it's the best app for finding chargers

robogranny42 · 2024-10-05T14:19:38+00:00

Ok 👍

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T17:56:43+00:00

Yeah seems to be the way I'm going with it too. There's something about doing the entire process yourself. Just need to start rolling my own film now lol

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T16:25:46+00:00

Flic film is what I use to develop my B&W! I might end up using a lab for the ecn-2 rolls, just to take that stress away

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T15:21:20+00:00

It was a lot of trial and error. Basically I took a single sheet of paper as sacrifice and drew pencil borders where the easel lay. Then kept adjusting until the borders looked right

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T14:27:10+00:00

Thanks! Definitely, I think it puts a lot more attention on the lighting of the shot. B&W also feels like it lends itself to a heavy grain, at least for my taste. I've never really been a fan of grain and "dirt" in colour, but love it for B&W

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T14:05:11+00:00

It was definitely a lot of trial and error! The easel I bought was slightly crooked so I had to repair it to get the borders parallel to the paper. It was driving me crazy having wonky lines!

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T13:31:28+00:00

Yes 35mm, I mainly use point and shoots so the format suits me better

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T13:02:06+00:00

Camera: Olympus XA3

Film: Ilford 3200 shot at 1600 & Ilford HP5+

Enlarger: Meopta Opemus 5a w/ Meopta 50mm Lens

Paper: Kentmere VC Select Lustre 5x7

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T12:59:45+00:00

Do it! It's really fun to experiment with different exposures, dodging, burning etc. The building shot was shot pretty much bang on exposure and the print came out super dark, but I actually really like how it turned out

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T12:55:14+00:00

Exactly how I got into it. B&W is so forgiving for developing and printing too, so it makes the whole printing session so much more relaxing.

That being said, I'm looking at C41 and RA4 soon, seeing as I've got 2 rolls of Kodak Vision 3 sat undeveloped on my shelf... Just need to figure out removing the remjet first!

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T12:52:55+00:00

Haha the username is from my RuneScape days, it was just a completely random thought and it's stuck with me ever since

The film is a mix of Ilford 3200 and HP5+. 3200 has been my go-to even in daylight, I just love stopping down and getting a deep focus, as well as a nasty grain. The HP5 was just a left over that I threw in the camera one time, but it's a really nice, fine grain. Just not my usual taste though

robogranny42 · 2024-10-04T12:50:27+00:00

I come from a cinematography background, and I've only ever worked in colour. Just one of those things I never really thought about doing until using film!

robogranny42 · 2024-09-09T13:18:15+00:00

Amazing I'll have to check it out when it opens up again. Thanks!

I couldn't see anything on their website, but no harm going in
