Locating Unit

To help develop my work in a new direction I decided to try use an old fashion film camera. My intention was to expose a roll of film to a collection of images using the camera, rewind the film and then re-expose the film to a second set of images. I had an induction into the black and white dark room so that I could develop the film myself, after discovering how difficult it is to get black and white film expose now. This was the outcome of my first black and white film.

Some of the images were blurry and not many had signs of being double exposed. I realised that the only areas that came through were the sections where the second image was lighter than the first. I had not initially thought about this, but I realised it is because the film can only be exposed to more light, it cannot be taken away once exposed (meaning it cannot get darker). Therefore, from this I learnt that my first set of images needed to be generally darker than my second set. These are the images from my first film that showed slight signs of a multiple exposure.
